Regulations require that you first register your number to use these resources to send SMS traffic to US and Canadian mobile destinations. If you are sending to Canada or the US and have not already done so, please see our documentation to register your Twilio phone number or Toll-Free number before you use this template.
This application builds an SMS bot to retrieve information such as emergency contact info. All information is gated by a customizable passcode to avoid it to be retrieved by people at random.
Important Reminder around Data Compliance: Even with a passcode protection be sure to check what information you are legally allowed to share via a format such as SMS.
