Monitor Twilio with PULSX

Why Monitor Twilio?

Monitor Twilio webhook endpoints for SMS, voice, and messaging. When your Twilio integration goes down, it can affect your entire application. Proactive monitoring helps you catch issues before they impact your users.

Key Endpoints to Monitor

Based on typical Twilio integrations, here are the most important endpoints to monitor:

• /api/webhooks/twilio/sms
• /api/webhooks/twilio/voice
• /api/webhooks/twilio/status

Your specific endpoints may vary depending on how you've integrated Twilio with your application.

Monitoring Best Practices

Follow these tips to get the most out of your Twilio monitoring:

• Monitor SMS webhook callback URLs
• Track voice call status callback endpoints
• Check WhatsApp webhook endpoints
• Monitor SendGrid email webhook endpoints
• Set up alerts for messaging status callbacks

Setting Up Monitoring in PULSX

Getting started with Twilio monitoring in PULSX is straightforward:

1. Add a new HTTP monitor - Enter your Twilio endpoint URL
2. Configure check interval - We recommend 60-second checks for critical endpoints
3. Set expected response codes - Usually 200-299 for healthy endpoints
4. Configure alerts - Set up email, Slack, or webhook notifications
5. Add to status page - Optionally include in your public status page

Alert Configuration

For Twilio integrations, we recommend:

• 60-second check intervals - Catch issues quickly
• Alert after 2 consecutive failures - Reduce false positives
• Multi-region monitoring - Distinguish between your issues and Twilio's issues
• SSL certificate monitoring - Get alerts before certificates expire

Troubleshooting Common Issues

If you're seeing alerts for your Twilio integration:

• Check Twilio's status page - The issue may be on their end
• Verify your credentials - API keys or OAuth tokens may have expired
• Check rate limits - You may be hitting Twilio's rate limits
• Review webhook configuration - Ensure endpoints are correctly configured in Twilio
