Twilio Verify

Use one-time codes to verify users.

The Twilio Verify Data Connector uses Twilio to send one-time codes to users so they can authenticate themselves. It can be used to verify email addresses and phone numbers, as well as part of a multi-factor authentication strategy.

This Data Connector extends the functionality of the Twilio Data Connector.

Once installed and added to a Form, you can access this Data Connector in the Form's server event scripts using: connectors.verjio.twilio.verify.

twilio.verify.createService create a Twilio verification service.
twilio.verify.sendToken sends a verification token (code) to the specified recipient.
twilio.verify.checkToken checks the verification token returned by the user matches the one sent.

Code Example:

// Create a new verification service
const service = connectors.verjio.twilio.verify.createService("myService", 5);

// Save the service id
if (service) {
    // Send a verification code
    const verification = connectors.verjio.twilio.verify.sendToken(service.sid, '+441234567890');

    // Wait for user to enter code
    const code = <user input>

    // Check the user-provided verification code
    const status = connectors.verjio.twilio.verify.checkToken(
        service.sid, 
        '+441234567890',
        code,
        { VerificationSid: verification.sid } );

    // If the code was correct, the status will be `approved`
    if (status === connectors.verjio.twilio.verify.status.APPROVED) {
        // success!
    }
}
