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 sample app provides an example of how to automate a workflow using Twilio's REST APIs and Twilio SMS. This particular example mimics a vacation rental website where a host can notify guests of a reservation via text message.

Here is an example of that workflow: 

  • A host creates a vacation property listing through the website
  • A guest requests a reservation for a property through the website
  • The host receives an SMS notifying them of the reservation request
  • The host can either Accept or Reject the reservation by responding to the SMS
    • The guest is notified via SMS whether their request was rejected or accepted
