Sample Code

Making a Call

require "Services/Twilio.php";

$sid = "ACXXXXXX"; // Your Twilio account sid
$token = "YYYYYY"; // Your Twilio auth token

$client = new Services_Twilio($sid, $token);
$call = $client->account->calls->create(
    '9991231234', // From this number
    '8881231234', // Call this number
    'http://foo.com/call.xml'
);

Generating TwiML

To control phone calls, your application need to output TwiML. Use Services_Twilio_Twiml to easily create such responses.

$response = new Services_Twilio_Twiml();
$response->say('Hello');
$response->play('monkey.mp3', array("loop" => 5));
print $response;
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Response>
  <Say>Hello</Say>
  <Play loop="5">monkey.mp3</Play>
</Response>
