I am trying to send sms using twilio but not getting any response or unable to send sms
I am using following code,where i am wrong ?
require __DIR__ . 'Twilio/autoload.php';
use Twilio\Rest\Client;
$sid = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
$token = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";
$twilio = new Client($sid, $token);
$message = $twilio->messages
->create("+91xxxxxxx", // to verified twilio number
array(
"body" => "This is the ship that made the Kessel Run in fourteen parsecs?",
"from" => "+xxxxxxx"
)
);
print($message->sid);
Following reasons may possible in this case.
Make sure that you have CURL module enable
var_dump($message);
Try to print Twilio object $twilio to make sure that library is correctly loaded .
Turn on php error by adding top of the script
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors','1');

How To Use Twilio Test Credentials with Magic Phone Numbers
When Customer replies to proxy service reserved number then proxy hit an OutOfSessionCallbackUrl(if a session is not active).
That URL will come to my code below.
public function response()
{
$to = $_POST['To'];
$from = $_POST['From'];
$from = substr($from, 2);
$body = $_POST['Body'];
$twilio = new Client($this->sid, $this->token);
$response=$this->db->get_where('contact_management as cm
,proxy_service as ps',
array('mobile'=>$from,'company_mobile'=>$to,'sc.sms_template_id<>'=>0))
->row_array();
$number = trim($response['country_code'].$response['mobile_number']);
//Here I'm sending a response
header("content-type:application/json");
?>
{
"uniqueName": "<?php echo rand();?>",
"ttl":"64800",
"mode": "voice-and-message",
"participantIdentifier":"<?php echo $number;?>"
}
<?php
}
This will create a session between SMS sender and returned number(company) and send the message of the sender to the company. I want to send a custom message before Twilio proxy send actual message to the company.
Thanks.

Currently you are using the out of session callback in order to create a session, but you want to send a message before you forward on the incoming message.
To do this, you won't be able to respond with the JSON to create a session. Instead, you should create the session manually using the session API. Once you have created a session you can then send your initial message by creating an interaction on the participant you want to send the message to. You can then follow up by using the same API to forward the original message. And finally you still need to respond to the webhook. Since you handled all the message sending manually, you can return an empty TwiML <Response/> to signify that you need Twilio to take no further part.
Let me know if that helps at all.
Here Are the complete Description.
I have add Twilio number as reserved in proxy service and set the proxy service OutOfSessionCallbackUrl.When this URL reach my code then the magic happens,
public function response()
{
$to = $_POST['To'];
$from = $_POST['From'];
$twilio = new Client($this->sid, $this->token);
$response=$this->db->get_where('contact_management ,proxy_service,
array('mobile'=>$from,'company_mobile'=>$to))->row_array();
$service_sid=$response['service_sid'];
$session = $twilio->proxy->v1->services($service_sid)->sessions
->create(array("uniqueName" => rand(),"ttl"=>"64800"));
$session_sid = $session->sid;
$participant1 = $twilio->proxy->v1->services($service_sid)
->sessions($session_sid)->participants->create($_POST['From'], // identifier
array("friendlyName" => $response['f_name'],"proxyIdentifier"=>$to));
$from_id = $participant1->proxyIdentifier;
$participant2 = $twilio->proxy->v1->services($service_sid)
->sessions($session_sid)->participants
->create($response['country_code'].$response['mobile_number'], // identifier
array("friendlyName" => $response['first_name']));
$to_id = $participant2->proxyIdentifier;
$to_sid = $participant2->sid;
$body = $response['campaign_name']."\n";
$body .= $_POST['Body'];
$message_interaction = $twilio->proxy->v1->services($service_sid)
->sessions($session_sid)
->participants($to_sid)
->messageInteractions
->create(array("body" => $body));
header("content-type:text/xml");
?>
<Response />

I'm trying to send bulk sms through twilio Api. Is there any method to pass the array of all phone numbers in a single API request.
Twilio developer evangelist here.
Yes there is now! It's known as the passthrough API (as it allows you to pass through many different messaging systems and send bulk messages. It's part of the Notify API and you can use it to send bulk SMS messages. You need to set up a messaging service and a notify service in your console, then you can use the following code:
<?php
// NOTE: This example uses the next generation Twilio helper library - for more
// information on how to download and install this version, visit
// https://www.twilio.com/docs/libraries/php
require_once '/path/to/vendor/autoload.php';
use Twilio\Rest\Client;
// Your Account SID and Auth Token from https://www.twilio.com/console
$accountSid = "your_account_sid";
$authToken = "your_auth_token";
// your notify service sid
$serviceSid = "ISXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
// Initialize the client
$client = new Client($accountSid, $authToken);
// Create a notification
$notification = $client
->notify->services($serviceSid)
->notifications->create([
"toBinding" => [
'{"binding_type":"sms", "address":"+15555555555"}',
'{"binding_type":"sms", "address":"+12345678912"}'
],
"body" => "Hello Bob"
]);
Checkout the documentation on sending multiple messages with the Notify passthrough API for all the details.
In case someone else had troubles with preparing the toBinding parameter from a PHP array() as I had, here is an example for that:
<?php
require_once '/path/to/vendor/autoload.php';
use Twilio\Rest\Client;
$accountSid = "your_account_sid";
$authToken = "your_auth_token";
$serviceSid = "ISXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
$client = new Client($accountSid, $authToken);
$recipients = array($num1, $num2, ...); // Your array of phone numbers
$binding = array();
foreach ($recipients as $recipient) {
$binding[] = '{"binding_type":"sms", "address":"+1'.$recipient.'"}'; // +1 is used for US country code. You should use your own country code.
}
$notification = $client
->notify->services($service_sid)
->notifications->create([
"toBinding" => $binding,
"body" => $text
]);
?>
First of all, you need to configure your twilio number properly for notification. Then your to use below code to send bulk SMS.
$message = 'Any text message';
$to = array();
foreach ($users as $user) {
$to[] = '{"binding_type":"sms", "address":"'.$user->phone_number.'"}';
}
$sid = 'TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID';
$token = 'TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN';
$services_id = 'TWILIO_SERVICE_ID';
$twilio = new Client($sid, $token);
$notification = $twilio
->notify->services($services_id)
->notifications->create([
"toBinding" => $to,
"body" => $message
]);
In the Twilio documentation, it states you can send a text to voice call statically like this:
use Twilio\Rest\Client;
$AccountSid = "";
$AuthToken = "";
$client = new Client($AccountSid, $AuthToken);
try {
$call = $client->account->calls->create(
"+15555551234",
"+15555554321",
array("url" => '/twilio/twilio.welcome.message.php')
);
echo "Started call: " . $call->sid;
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo "Error: " . $e->getMessage();
}
I find that to be a little bit much for dynamically created messages. This is fine for static messages. What I want to do is something like this:
use Twilio\Twiml;
$response = new Twiml();
$response->say('Chapeau!', ['voice' => 'woman', 'language' => 'fr']);
$AccountSid = "";
$AuthToken = "";
$client = new Client($AccountSid, $AuthToken);
try {
$call = $client->account->calls->create(
"+phoneNumber",
"+phoneNumber",
array("response" => $response)
);
echo "Started call: " . $call->sid;
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo "Error: " . $e->getMessage();
}
It hints at being able to do this in the documentation, but I can't find it anywhere. I'd be really shocked if there wasn't an easier implementation than creating a php script, to call, and then delete to get this to work. But I've seen worse things in my life.
Twilio developer evangelist here.
I'm afraid there's no way to send TwiML to Twilio to be executed when a call is answered. You still need to send a URL that will respond with TwiML when the call is connected.
However, you can make that URL react dynamically. If you are just sending a message to be read out then you could send the message as a query parameter in the URL and then use that message when the webhook is called. For example:
$message = "Hello! This is a message!";
$call = $client->account->calls->create(
"+15555551234",
"+15555554321",
array("url" => '/twilio/twilio.welcome.message.php?message='.urlencode($message))
);
Then, in your webhook:
<?php
$message = $_REQUEST['message'];
header("Content-type: text/xml");
echo "<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>\n";
?>
<Response>
<Say><?php echo $message ?></Say>
</Response>
This way, you can dynamically create messages but only host one webhook endpoint.
Let me know if that helps at all.
What about using Twiml bin? This way instead of pointing to your server, you'd have a twilio hosted URL that generates the twiml for you. It supports dynamic variables, looping etc.
see : https://support.twilio.com/hc/en-us/articles/230878368
And then use dynamic variables like this :
<Say>Hello {{CustomerName}}</Say>
I am sending an SMS message to an Android phone using Twilio.
The domain has a hypen in it. e.g. http://my-domain.com
When the SMS message arrives on Android, only the initial portion of the text is included in the hyperlink.
So in the above example the hyperlink is "http://my"
How is it possible to escape a hyperlink being send to android? I am using the PHP Twilio client.
It might be you done any small mistake. And, it not depend on android or iOS.
I also tried and it worked as its not specific to Android or iOS.
<?php
require '../Services/Twilio.php'; // Include the Twilio PHP library
$version = "2010-04-01"; // Twilio REST API version
// Set our Account SID and AuthToken
$sid = 'yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy';
$token = 'xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx';
$client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token, $version); //initialise the Twilio client
$message = 'http://my-domain.com';
try {
// Initiate a new outbound call
$call = $client->account->messages->create(array(
'To' => "+YYYYYYYYYY",
'From' => "+1XXXXXXXXXX",
'Body' => $message,
));
echo 'TWILIO SMS';
echo 'Sending.... ';
} catch (Exception $e) {
echo 'Error: ' . $e->getMessage();
}
?>
Here, my code. From this am getting this url as same in SMS from Twilio.
You please check your code once. And, I hope my code will help you.
