Twilio Setting

To integrate Twilio for sending OTPs (or other types of SMS notifications) in your application, you’ll need to set up Twilio and configure your project accordingly. Twilio provides APIs to send SMS, make phone calls, or even use messaging services like WhatsApp.

Here’s a step-by-step explanation of how to set up Twilio in your project, including getting your Twilio credentials, installing necessary libraries, and using the API to send an OTP.

1. Create a Twilio Account

Steps:

1. Visit Twilio Website: Go to https://www.twilio.com.

2. Sign Up:

   • Click on the "Sign Up" or "Try Twilio Free" button.

   • You can sign up using your email, Google account, or GitHub account.

   • Fill in your details (name, email, and password).

3. Verify Your Email:

   • Twilio will send a verification email.

   • Open your email inbox, find the Twilio verification email, and click on the verification link.

4. Enter Your Phone Number:

   • After email verification, Twilio will ask for a phone number.

   • Enter your phone number to receive an SMS for phone number verification.

   • Verify your phone number by entering the OTP you receive.

5. Complete the Setup Wizard:

   • Twilio will prompt you to answer a few questions about your project:

     • What you're building (e.g., SMS notifications, phone calls, etc.).

     • Your programming language (Node.js, Python, PHP, etc.).

     • Your estimated monthly usage (you can select any option, especially if you're exploring the platform).
