Skill instructions
Overview WhatsApp is one channel in Twilio's Messaging platform. All channels share the same messages.create() API — see twilio-messaging-overview for the full channel comparison and onboarding sequence. Twilio routes WhatsApp through the Programmable Messaging API — all numbers use whatsapp:+E.164 prefix. Two sending modes apply: free-form (within 24 hrs of last inbound) and template (anytime). Sending free-form outside the window causes silent delivery failure — always check which mode is required. | Mode | When allowed | Parameters | |------|-------------|------------| | Free-form | Within 24 hrs of last inbound from user | body, optional mediaUrl | | Template | Anytime | contentSid + contentVariables | --- Prerequisites - Twilio account with WhatsApp enabled — New to Twilio?
