What it does
It helps send messages from our active number from Twilio to the WhatsApp numbers. Since mine is the trial account I can only send the messages to the verified numbers but it should work the same for others as well. when we send a message to the Twilio number then it also sends a message.
How we built it
Nodejs
- Packages used : twilio
Javascript
Challenges we ran into
There was just one challenge when making it that the index files read the environment variable. As when after getting an error I consoled it, it was showing undefined.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
I am proud of solving the challenges I faced.
What we learned
I learned that the environment variable is actually stored in the environment and not the .env file. I think people keep those as a backup since after exporting the environment variables to the environment my application was working. But I also kept them as a backup. Thus, I learned to export/set the environment variables.
What's next for WhatsApp messages through Twilio
Maybe not only one way but also I can try to automate two way conservations.
