Custom Twilio Integration

​

Overview

• Your own Twilio account

​

Step 1: Get your Twilio credentials

1. Log in to your Twilio Console.
2. Copy your Account SID (starts with “AC”, 34 characters) and Auth Token (32 characters).
3. Make sure the phone number(s) you want to use are active in that Twilio account.

​

Step 2: Generate an Encrypted Key in Bland

1. In the Bland Dashboard, go to Add-ons → BYOT and generate a new key using your Twilio Account SID and Auth Token.
2. Save theencrypted_keyimmediately as it is only shown once. If you lose it, you’ll need to generate a new one.

​

Step 3: Import your Twilio numbers

1. After the key is generated, your Twilio numbers will appear under Add-ons → BYOT.
2. Select the number (s) you want to import and complete the import.

• account_sid - Your Twilio Account SID
• auth token- Your Twilio Auth Token

• authorization - Your Bland API key

curl --request POST \
  --url https://api.bland.ai/v1/accounts \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --header 'authorization: <authorization>' \
  --data '
{
  "account_sid": "<string>",
  "auth_token": "<string>"
}

​

Step 4: Use your imported number

curl --location 'https://api.bland.ai/v1/calls' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: [YOUR_BLAND_API_KEY]' \
--header 'encrypted_key: [YOUR_ENCRYPTED_KEY]' \
--data '{
  "from": "+1234567890",
  "phone_number": "+10987654321",
  "task": "Ask the user how their day is going"
}
