Connections

Twilio API Key Connection

Authenticate requests to Twilio using an API key

This component authenticates with Twilio using API key/secret pairs that can be generated from Twilio's app console.
To create a Twilio API key and secret pair:

• Go to the Twilio console
• On the top-right of the screen click Account -> API Keys & Tokens
• Select Create API Key
• Give your key a name and select Standard for Key type
• Take note of the API key's SID and Secret - you will enter those in a moment

Now, when you create an integration that uses Twilio, a "Twilio API Key Connection" will automatically be generated.
Enter your API Key SID (starts with "SK..."), and its Secret.
Go back to your Twilio console to find your Account SID (starts with "AC..."), and enter that as well.

Input	Comments	Default
Account SID	Your account SID (starts with AC)
API Key SID	An API Key SID (starts with SK)
API Key Secret	The API secret that was generated when an API key was created

Twilio Auth Token Connection

Authenticate requests using account SID and auth token

When you create a Twilio account, an Account String Identifier (Account SID) and Auth Token are generated.
You can use the account SID and auth token to authenticate with Twilio and to send SMS messages.

:::caution Consider API Keys instead
For security reasons, we recommend using an API Key Connection instead.
API keys can be revoked and auth tokens generated using API keys are short-lived.
