Connect Twilio
Connect your company's Twilio account so your team can make, receive and log calls in the CRM, and manage your phone numbers.
Updated 12 October 2026 · 3 min read
The Twilio integration links your company's Twilio account to Salesfresh. Your team makes and receives calls inside the CRM, and every call is logged on the right record.
For example, an insurance agency's agents call customers from their desk phones, and nobody writes the calls down. The admin connects the agency's Twilio account once and gives each agent a phone number. Now agents call from a lead's page, every call shows on the lead's timeline, and the manager sees how many calls each agent made.
Before you start
- Twilio is on the Professional plan and above. See Integrations overview.
- To see and connect Twilio, you need the Manage Integration permission. If you don't have it, ask your admin.
- You need a Twilio account. Twilio bills you directly for calls and numbers.
- Twilio is connected once, for the whole company.
Connect Twilio
- Go to Settings > Integrations and click Twilio.
- Click Connect to Twilio. The Connection Type panel opens.
- Click Credentials, then Next. Managed says Coming Soon and can't be picked yet.
- Fill in the fields from your Twilio account, and click Verify & Connect.
- Integration Complete shows. Click Close.
| Field | What to enter |
|---|---|
| Account SID * | Your Twilio Account SID, starting with AC |
| Auth Token * | Your Twilio Auth Token |
| API Key * | A Twilio API key |
| API Secret * | That key's secret |
Once connected, Twilio gets a Dashboard and a Settings tab. Settings shows your connection details. The Account SID shows in full, and the other three show only as dots.
Manage phone numbers
Click the gear icon next to Disconnect from Twilio. The phone numbers panel opens, with three tabs:
| Tab | What you can do |
|---|---|
| Active Numbers | See each number, its name, what it can do, and who has it. Click ⋮ to Assign to User, Assign to Team, Remove Assignment or Release it |
| Released Numbers | Numbers you gave back. Click Buy Again to get one back |
| Purchase Numbers | Buy a new number. Only US local numbers are offered. Click Buy and confirm |
Buying or releasing a number changes what Twilio bills you.
To make and take calls, see Call with Twilio.
The Dashboard tab
Dashboard shows your company's calls: call volume, cost, call length, how calls are spread, how each person or team did, call outcomes, the busiest hours, and how much each number is used. Pick a date range, and Day, Week or Month.
Disconnect
- Click Disconnect from Twilio.
- A window asks whether to disconnect your Twilio account. Click Yes.
Calling from the CRM stops for everyone. Call history and your phone numbers in Salesfresh stay.
