Twilio integration with salesforce
Following are the steps to integrate twilio with salesforce: -
1 First of all we have to create an account on twilio website. Twilio website provides two type of account .
a.) Free account:- In this type account you can call to any number around the world, but the number from which you call should be registered with twilio.
b.) Paid account:- In this type account you can purchase new number, can port your number with twilio and can send sms also. With this account you can also use many other premium facilities like you can create client app and can use interactive deshboard etc.
But for now we will create only free account as follow:-
a.) Open https://www.twilio.com/try-twilio and create an account
b.) Verify Your number by request a call or sms and then enter code which you get from call
c.) Now the twilio will give you a chance to select a number.
That’s it we have created our account.
