Twilio

Prerequisites

  • A Twilio account.
  • An Administrator or Developer, to create the API key.

Connect

Create an API key in Twilio

While signed into your main Twilio account, create a Restricted API key scoped to Usage Records if your account allows it. Otherwise, create a Standard API key. Copy the API Key SID, the API Secret, and your Account SID.

A key created in the main account rolls up costs from every subaccount, as if the parent incurred them. If you need per-subaccount attribution instead, connect each subaccount separately with its own key.

Add it to LevelFour

Open Connect Providers, select Twilio, and paste the three values. Click Add Account SID.

Confirming it worked

The connection moves to Connected. Your first data appears within a day.

Rotating or removing access

Rotating the credential

Create a new API key in Twilio, paste it into Connect Providers, then delete the old key.

Removing access

Disconnect Twilio under Connect Providers, then delete the API key from Twilio's console.

Troubleshooting

SymptomWhat to do
Subaccount spend appears twiceYou connected the main account (which already rolls up subaccounts) and one or more subaccounts separately. Connect one or the other, not both
Total spend does not exactly match the invoice totalSome Twilio charges fall outside the standard usage categories. Reconcile against the overall total, not the sum of categories
Recent days keep changingExpected. Today's and the current month's usage are not final until Twilio closes them
