The COERO Twilio integration allows you to make phone calls for service requests from the COERO In-Room Display. This is useful for when your guests need assistance and your staff isn't nearby. To setup the integration please follow the steps below.
Create Twilio Account
- Head over to Twilio and sign up for a new account
- Once logged in you will see this dashboard. Please note down your "ACCOUNT SID" and "AUTH TOKEN" for later.

- Head over to the Buy a Number page
- Under capabilities select voice
- Hit search
- Choose one of the numbers displayed on your screen
- Finish phone number setup
- Once you're finished you will get to this screen. Note down your phone number for later
