How do I check the status of a Twilio SMS?

Short answer: You can get message in Twilio by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Twilio Get Message action to a workflow, map its 1 input from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Get Message.

What does the Get Message action do in Twilio?

Retrieves details of a sent Twilio message by SID with status (queued, sent, delivered, undelivered, failed), price, and error code. Used to reconcile sends with carrier-reported state.

What inputs does Get Message require?

Required: Message SID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Twilio returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Twilio returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Get Message support batch operations?

Run Get Message inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Twilio's rate limits.
