Twilio & WhatsApp
Twilio powers messaging channels for customer-facing agents: WhatsApp and SMS. You create a connection with your Twilio credentials, then choose Add channel in a customer-facing agent’s Channels section and pick it (this creates an event Loop).
What your agent can do
Section titled “What your agent can do”- Receive inbound WhatsApp and SMS messages
- Reply with text and supported media
- Serve many customers concurrently, each with an isolated conversation
- Run around the clock as a support or sales assistant
Connecting Twilio / WhatsApp
Section titled “Connecting Twilio / WhatsApp”- Set up a Twilio account and a messaging-capable sender (a WhatsApp sender requires a WhatsApp Business profile through Twilio/Meta)
- Go to Console → Integrations → Twilio and connect it with your Account SID, Auth Token and Twilio phone number
- Auteryn sets the number’s inbound webhook for you. If it cannot, it shows the webhook URL to paste into the Twilio Console
- Open your customer-facing agent, and in its Channels section choose Add channel and pick the connection
