The Vodia PBX has enhanced its communication capabilities by integrating Twilio’s SMS and MMS API, allowing users to send and receive messages directly from the Vodia platform. This integration supports seamless messaging across Vodia applications, including Windows, web browsers and mobile apps. To get started, users need a Vodia PBX license, a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN), a Let's Encrypt certificate and an active Twilio account. After purchasing a Twilio DID number for SMS and voice, you’ll configure the webhook settings in Twilio to direct incoming messages to your Vodia PBX. In the Vodia admin panel, input the required Twilio credentials and save your settings.
When when you log in to your Twilio account, navigate to the all-products-icon and click on phone numbers, then Buy a number. Next, type in your customer Area code and, under categories, choose SMS and Voice.
Purchase your number
Next...buy your new DID number.
Success!! Now that you have acquired a Twilio number, you can start using the Twilio SMS feature by plugging in a few values.
We will be also using the DID number in Vodia's notification settings, so keep that number handy.
