Twilio integration

Connect Twilio SMS as a v4 channel type and send with channel_type twilio or an exact from number.

When to use Twilio

  • SMS/MMS reach when the recipient is not on iMessage
  • Hybrid outbound (Twilio-first, continue on Blooio after a reply)
  • Explicit SMS branding via a Twilio number

Send on Twilio

curl -X POST https://api.blooio.com/v4/messages \
 -H "Authorization: Bearer bl_live_..." \
 -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
 -d '{
 "channel_type": "twilio",
 "to": "+15551234567",
 "text": "Hello via SMS"
 }'
Try it

Pin a specific Twilio line by passing its number as from:

{ "from": "+15559876543", "to": "+15551234567", "text": "Hello via SMS" }

Setup checklist

  1. Connect Twilio under Integrations in the dashboard.
  2. Import or select numbers.
  3. On Channels, drag Twilio senders onto the API key that should use them.
  4. Optionally enable Hybrid Outbound when Blooio + Twilio are both assigned.
