TMS Software Blog: TMS WEB Core and More with Andrew:<br />Notifications via SMS with Twilio

General News

Summary

Signing up for Twilio doesnt cost anything initially, and the trial account comes with a bit of credit and access to everything we need to get our app up and running. We had extended it previously when we looked at ChatGPT , linking a chat interface with OpenAIs REST API for a handful of their AI models. As is often the case, we have to anticipate that whatever is coming back from an external API is subject to change without notice, so this kind of extra effort is likely required even if the field names did match the JSON values. This is where we can store the Twilio Auth token and other information that doesnt really change all that often, and that we want to be secured and completely inaccessible to the client. We can pass in the friendly name for the SendAMessage function, rather than the number, to make things a little easier, potentially, where we can then do the lookup for the MessagingServiceSid in the endpoint.
