The Microsoft bot framework is returning the error "Provided phone number does not belong to Twilio account." when I try to connect it to my Twilio phone number. It works with Skype, Slack and Facebook but this SMS connector will not let me get past the registration. What gives? is there a known issue with this part?
I had this same issue, I had failed to put the "+" in front of the phone number. It worked fine once this was in place.
eg.
+44753....
rather than
44753....
Never mind...I will write my own SMS connector. Easier they using yours anyway

I have integrated rasa assistant with twilio to show chat in watsaap messenger.
Currently, when i send the message to the bot this error is coming up.
I faced this issue while trying the Twilio WhatsApp API with test credentials (expecting it to work).
You need to use the LIVE Credentials instead of the Test Credentials. The test credentials do not support WhatsApp at time of writing. It will cost you some money per successful API call (because it is a real API call to WhatsApp).
This error indicates the destination (To:) number is not WhatsApp enabled. If that is not the case, you should open a ticket with Twilio via the Twilio console to have them further investigate.

Hey Guys I have an upgraded paid Twilio account and I'd like to send SMS without phone number verification through my Rails app.
Is there a way to do this?
Please advise
Thank you

The phone number verification for SMS is only a restriction to trial accounts. Once you have upgraded your account you will be able to send SMS messages to any number (though we recommend you get consent for that activity from the end user, of course).
If you are finding that you can't send messages without verifying the number and you have upgraded the app, then please get in touch with Twilio support and they will figure out what is wrong with your account.
I connected Twilio connector to my registered Bot.
Whenever I send a sms to my Twilio number, I can see in the logs that Twilio service gets 404 when trying to post a message to
https://sms.botframework.com/api/sms
The bot itself works well. I can test it with the webchat iframe or through the test console. But it seems that the Twilio integration to the bot framework is broken
Twilio developer evangelist here. I've just been through the process and was able to get my messages sent to & from my bot.
The fact that your unable to do that suggests you missed a step in the configuration, so I will try and describe what I did here to see if it helps you out.
Created a TwiML application here and set its messaging url to https://sms.botframework.com/api/sms
Purchased a phone number and changed the messaging section to use my TwiML app.
Added my twilio credentials and twilio phone number to the SMS config section as follows:
One thing I noticed is that when Twilio makes a request to this URL to send an SMS, the url returns a 502.
But according to a Microsoft employee this is "harmless".
Let me know if this helps you at all, or if you still need any help.
my client has registered to Twilio from US. I am developer and using Twilio service for testing purpose in India. I am sending text message to send One time password(OTP) to a mobile no in India for which DND is activated. I am not able to receive OPT via text message. Help me.

I'm afraid the DND list is the top limitation of Twilio in India right now. You can check the details here.
You could, if you were interested, try using Authy (a different Twilio service) to send OTPs to your users. If they have a smart phone, they can then install the Authy application and generate their OTPs on their devise without the need for an SMS. Check out the Authy documentation for how to get started.
I've seen several applications that use Twilio for SMS verification go from:
Sending the user a 4-5 digit code to enter on their handset
to
Pre-filling a 32+ character SMS message that the user sends from their device to the services Twilio number.
Is there any documentation out there on how to implement an approach like this?

It sounds like your asking two different questions, one regarding two factor authentication and one regarding autocreating an SMS message on the device for the user to sent to Twilio.
If I've got that correct, then I'd start be working through the Two-Factor Authentication How To article that walks through setting up SMS-bsased two factor authentication.
Another resource to check out is the Add Two-Factor Authentication to your Website with Google Authenticator and Twilio SMS blog post.
As far as generating a text message on a device, I think that is going to greatly depend on what kind of mobile device you are targeting.
Hope that helps.
