After looking into twilio docs i did not find support for Interactive message Templates for nodejs.
Is interactive Message Templates for whatsApp not available in twilio nodejs sdk ?
If available can you provide a link thanks.
Below is information on Twilio WhatsApp templates (which are used to initiate contact to the consumer). The Twilio WhatsApp sandbox has some default templates but you must define templates for Twilio WhatsApp enabled numbers.
Send WhatsApp Notification Messages with Templates
The Twilio API for WhatsApp now supports interactive message templates. Check out the documentation for using buttons in WhatsApp templates here.

As far as I can see, the WhatsApp messaging API does not support responding to a particular message. You can check their messaging API reference here. Consequently, the Twilio API for WhatsApp also does not support replying to a specific message.
I would like to add a video to the Whatsapp template on Twilio (Within the regular process of template submission in Twilio), How should I add the Video to the template?

Templates sent via the Twilio API for WhatsApp do not currently support sending media.
I am trying to use the Twilio API to send WhatsApp messages to a group but I could not find any support. WhatsApp Business API supports this use case, so I was wondering if Twilio has support for messaging to WhatsApp groups instead of individuals.
Looked at Twilio documentation but there wasn't any API for it.

Under these FAQs on the docs, it mentions that this is not supported yet but is expected to be so in the future.
"Can I send messages to WhatsApp groups or manage groups?
Currently, our API does not support messaging with or managing
WhatsApp groups. We expect to add support for groups in the future."
Hope this helps!
I am trying to integrate twilio with the Joy of Texting Pro WP plugin. How do I setup Twilio to send inbound sms to the plugin?
Twilio developer evangelist here.
The documentation for the Joy of Texting Pro has some details on how you setup inbound SMS to the plugin.
You need to log in to your Twilio account and edit the number you are using to receive messages on. You need to enter a URL in the Messaging section for when a message comes in. From what I can tell, you need to use your WordPress application's URL plus ?inbound. e.g https://mywordpresssite.com?inbound
Let me know if that helps at all.
Is it possible to send/receive SMS from whatsapp using twilio number? Anybody tried twilio with whatsapp? I asked customer care, if it is possible, he said, not sure but many people asked about that.
In case anyone else lands here, Twilio just released a WhatsApp integration via their new Business API

Whatsapp do not have an API, so it is not possible to send or receive messages to Whatsapp using the Twilio API either.
If you are looking to send and receive messages to services like Whatsapp, then you might be interested in Twilio Channels. Channels are the various APIs that we are integrating into the one Twilio API so it's easy for you to send to all these third party services.
Channels lets you send and receive messages to services like:
Facebook

Twitter
Amazon Alexa
Viber
