This is a plugin I developed to learn Flex, and how we can easily integrate Flex with Segment.
Twilio Flex Plugins allow you to customize the appearance and behavior of Twilio Flex. If you want to learn more about the capabilities and how to use the API, check out the Flex documentation.
Make sure you have Node.js as well as npm
. We support Node >= 10.12 (and recommend the even versions of Node), up to version 16 (Node 18 is not supported). Afterwards, install the dependencies by running npm install
:
cd
# If you use npm
npm install
For some reason, Yarn package resolution adds something in the plugin that breaks the UI.
Next, please install the Twilio CLI by running:
brew tap twilio/brew && brew install twilio
Finally, install the Flex Plugin extension for the Twilio CLI:
twilio plugins:install @twilio-labs/plugin-flex
To see it working locally, use the command:
twilio flex:plugins:start
Run twilio flex:plugins --help
to see all the commands we currently support. For further details on Flex Plugins refer to our documentation on the Twilio Docs page.
This plugin relies on React 17 for now. On March 29th 2023, it's the most recent version that Flex supports.
Updating the plugin command (deploy):
twilio flex:plugins:deploy --major --changelog "My modification" --description "Leo's Plugin on Flex"
Releasing the plugin:
twilio flex:plugins:release --name "Plugin Release" --description "Enabling Leo's Plugin" --plugin leo-flex-plugin@1.0.0 --profile=ProdProfileName
Error: error:0308010C:digital envelope routines::unsupported

command
This is a known issue with Node 18. This plugin was written with Node 16, and it works normally with Node 18, with the OpenSSL legacy provider. To fix it, run the following command:
export NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider
Or, in Windows:
$env:NODE_OPTIONS = "--openssl-legacy-provider"
Or:
set NODE_OPTIONS=--openssl-legacy-provider
