Twilio Changelog

Starting October 14, Deleting a Message log will also automatically remove any Media objects associated with that message. This allows a more intuitive experience when customers issue delete requests on messages containing media. The change will apply to all messaging channels supporting media including MMS, WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger.

More details of the changes to coming message records and media availability are published here.

Twilio <Pay> now enables PCI-Compliant contact center payment use cases with the launch of Agent Assisted <Pay>. Developers can build payment flows that allow agents to securely capture caller payment information during a voice conversation using the Agent Assisted <Pay> API. This launch extends Twilio’s existing support for IVR payments via our PCI DSS compliant Voice platform, <Pay> TwiML, and integrations with <Pay> connectors to Agent Assisted payments.

When leveraging the Agent Assisted <Pay> feature within their contact center (including Flex), agents control the payment flow and guide callers by requesting payment information one at a time (e.g., payment card number, expiration date, security code). Agents can continue to converse with callers but will not hear their DTMF, ensuring the security of the payment information. For additional details visit the Agent Assisted <Pay> blog post.

Get started with Agent Assisted <Pay> APIs. Learn more about PCI Compliance, <Pay>, capturing IVR payments, and PCI Recordings.

All new Functions and Assets UI is now available. The new Functions Editor brings together Functions, Assets, Logs and Settings in single intuitive design for an effective development experience. This UI utilises Functions and Assets API and delivers a seamless experience between UI and API. Previous version of Functions Editor continues to be available under Functions (Classic).

Trunking Termination Calls per Second (CPS) refers to how many new SIP Trunking call setups are allowed in one second for Trunking Termination calls (outgoing traffic from your communications infrastructure to the PSTN). Twilio, by default, provides the ability for you to place 1 CPS per Trunk per Region (see limits).

With this release you are now able to immediately increase your Trunk CPS settings per region (up to 15cps) in the Console, under the specific Trunk, under Termination settings.

Twilio Conversations (Chat and SMS channels), Programmable Chat, and Twilio Sync can now be used to develop compliant healthcare applications that contain protected health information (PHI) for organizations that are subject to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA). Twilio will sign Business Associate Addendums (BAA) with covered entities and business associates for HIPAA Eligible Products and Services.

All Messaging Insights reports now contain 120 days of data. This data becomes visible upon choosing 120 days in the Date-Time picker dropdown within Messaging Insights available via the Programmable Messaging console.

This is an enhancement from the 30 days of data that we launched into General Availability in June and was one of the top three requests from early customers.

You can now create new segments by copying an existing segment and making minor modifications. The ability to duplicate a segment means you no longer have to start from scratch when creating new segments. For more information about creating segments, see Segmenting your Contacts.

You can now create new segments based on two additional date criteria: when a contact was added to Marketing Campaigns and the last time a contact was updated. The criteria are listed as "Date Added" and "Last Updated" in Marketing Campaigns. For more information about segments, see Segmenting your Contacts.
