You no longer need to manually remove contacts out of workflows that have Twilio errors. The Twilio error workflow now automatically removes any contact that receives a 30003, 30005, or 30006 Twilio error code.

  1. Purpose of the Process

    • Remove contacts with errors (e.g., 30003, 30005, 30006 Twilio error codes) from the workflow

    • Reduce future errors and maintain a low error rate.

    • Prevent accumulation of errors by removing contacts with Twilio error codes from the workflow.

    • Improve deliverability rates by removing error-prone contacts.

  2. Workflow Activation

    • Contact receiving a Twilio error (30003,30005,30006) will automatically activate (trigger) this workflow.

    • adds Twilio error tag to contact

    • Removes contacts from any active/current workflows

    • Ensures no more messages are sent to contacts with errors

    • Moves contacts to Twilio error Pipeline located under the Dialer Opportunities

    • Enables DND for SMS only giving you the ability to still call the contact

  3. Importance of Clearing Errors

    • Prevents being charged for messages that can't be delivered

    • Helps maintain an error rate of 10% or below, as recommended by Twilio

    • Ensure contacts will not be sent another sms message

  4. Outcome and Impact

    • The removal of contacts with error does not affect the overall statistics of the SMS performance.

    • The focus is on maintaining a low error rate, improving deliverability, and optimizing workflow efficiency.

    • By promptly removing error-prone contacts, future errors are reduced
