Twilio API
Access Twilio call logs, SMS/MMS messages, recordings, transcriptions, phone numbers, and usage data.
BYOK (Bring Your Own Key): you provide your own API credentials.
Before You Start
This actor requires your own API credentials to fetch real data.
Where to get your key: Twilio Account SID
Demo Mode is off by default, so runs fetch real data. Set demoMode to true to get free sample data that shows the output format, no key needed.
Quick Start
Test with Demo Mode (free, no API key needed)
{"demoMode": true,"mediaUrl": "https://example.com"}
Run with real data
{"demoMode": false,"task": "get_calls","accountSid": "YOUR_ACCOUNT_SID","authToken": "YOUR_AUTH_TOKEN","status": "all","limit": 100}
Input Parameters

Data sources and limits (updated 2026-10-15)
Live mode calls the Twilio REST API with your Account SID and Auth Token (Twilio Console, Account Info). Without them, a live run finishes with a notice row and charges nothing. Wrong credentials fail the run with Twilio's own error message. get_usage returns usage.records (Twilio usage records) and usage.recordCount.
Pricing
| Event | When it is charged | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Actor start | Once when the run starts, one event per GB of memory (minimum one). At the default 256 MB of memory that is $0.10 per run | $0.10 per GB |
| Get Calls | Retrieve call history | $0.01 |
| Get Call | Get details for a specific call | $0.01 |
| Get Messages | SMS/MMS message history | $0.01 |
| Send Message | Send SMS or MMS | $0.01 |
| Get Recordings | Call recordings | $0.01 |
| Get Transcriptions | Speech-to-text results | $0.01 |
| List Phone Numbers | Account phone numbers | $0.01 |
| Get Usage | Usage and billing data | $0.01 |
| Lookup Number | Phone number validation | $0.01 |
| Result | Each item written to the default dataset | $0.00001 |
Each successful live call charges one event named after the task you ran (prices are on the Pricing tab), plus the standard Actor start fee. Not charged: Demo Mode runs, calls that fail or return an error row, and calls that return no rows.
Troubleshooting
"API key is required"
You have Demo Mode turned off but didn't provide an API key. Either:
- Turn Demo Mode on to test with sample data
- Add your API key in the input
"API error 403" or "Unauthorized"
Your API key is invalid, expired, or doesn't have access to this specific API endpoint. Double-check your key and account permissions.
"API error 429" or "Rate limit"
Too many requests. Wait a minute and try again, or reduce the number of items per run.
No results or empty dataset
Check the run log for error messages. Common causes:
- Invalid input format (check the examples above)
- API key without proper permissions
- The target data doesn't exist or is too small to track
How do I test without an API key?
Enable Demo Mode in the input. This returns realistic sample data so you can verify the output format works for your workflow.
