Feature

Twilio Integration Plugin

Marketplace Product

Twilio Integration plugin has a deep integration with the Backendless to enable the following capabilities:

  • User registration with phone number confirmation;
  • Login with a phone number – two factor authentication (2FA);
  • Sending SMS/MMS API.

This marketplace product enables phone-based authentication for the Backendless login process and also provides some useful APIs, such as sending out an SMS/MMS message. The plugin is deeply integrated into Backendless to provide a seamless experience requiring minimal changes. The standard user registration and login workflows are extended by the plugin to take advantage of its ability to send out SMS and thus provide the 2FA capability.

Installation Instructions

  1. Login to Backendless Console and select your app. Open the Marketplace screen and install the “Twilio Integration plugin” from the Backendless marketplace. The plugin product is available under the All services menu. The product itself is available at no cost (free), however, keep in mind that your app must be on a paid plan in order to install a product from the Marketplace.
  2. The Twilio Integration Plugin product has required configuration parameters. When installing the product, you will be presented with a configuration popup window shown below. Keep the browser window open as you will return to it with the required information.
  3. In a separate browser window, navigate to https://twilio.com and login to your Twilio account. If you do not have an account, you will need to create one.
  4. In the Twilio dashboard, open the Settings section and scroll down to API Credentials.
  5. Copy the Account SID and the Auth Token values into the corresponding fields of the Twilio Service Configuration popup in Backendless Console (the one shown in Step 2 of these instructions).
  6. Enter a phone number in the Twilio Sender Phone Number field in Backendless Console. It must be a phone number registered with Twilio. There is an option to obtain a number from Twilio or transfer an existing number to Twilio.
  7. All other fields can remain as is for now. All the field values can be modified later. Click the TEST CONFIGURATION button which will validate all values.
  8. Click SAVE to save the configuration information and install the Twilio plugin.

Verifying Installation

Once the Twilio plugin is installed, you can verify it by navigating to the Business Logic section of Backendless Console:

The plugin consists of an API service and several API Event handlers which enable deep integration into the user registration and login workflows. The API service has several operations which you can test and try directly from Backendless Console. See below for information about the API operations provided with the Twilio API service.

Phone Number Column

The functionality of the Twilio Integration Plugin relies on a phone number present for every user. The phone number must be stored in the Users table. The name of the column where the phone number is stored is phoneNumber, however, you can change the name using the Service Configuration window shown above. To access the window, select the Business Logic section of Backendless Console, select the Twilio service and click the gear icon as shown below:

In the Service Configuration window see the User Phone Number Field property.

As you will see in the APIs documented below, the phone number is present in every registration and login request. The Twilio Integration Plugin uses the phone number column to send out a code which is used to confirm user’s identity.

Using the API

The API supported by the Twilio Integration Plugin can be used either via REST or using a Backendless SDK. To use the API with an SDK, generate the client-side library for the API as shown below:

  1. Click the Business Logic icon in Backendless Console and select the Twilio service.
  2. Click the Download Client SDK icon as shown below (the icon is shown in bright green color):
  3. Select the language of your choice to download the client SDK generated specifically for the Twilio service. The SDK includes all the methods provided by the Twilio Integration Plugin.

In case a language you would like to use does not appear in the list, you can still use the plugin. The information below describes all available options.

User Registration with Phone Verification

Consider the following scenario: your application’s registration form includes a field for the user’s phone number. When a user creates an account, they provide a phone number that you would like to verify before their account is enabled. They can then log in after the registration process is complete.

The process of user registration with phone number confirmation consists of the following steps:

  1. The application uses the standard registration API call, however, the client sends only the phone number. The response for the registration call includes a special value called "transactionId".
  2. The Twilio Integration Plugin sends out an SMS message containing a confirmation code. The message is sent to the phone number specified in the request (1).
  3. Your application asks the user to enter the confirmation code to complete the registration process.
  4. Once the user enters the confirmation code, the application sends out the second registration API call which now includes the following fields:
    • email or the property/column used as identity by your application.
    • password – user’s password
    • transactionId – this is the value from step 1.
    • transactionCode – this is the code sent to the user’s phone in step 2.
    • phoneNumber – this is the same number used in step 1. This is required as a security measure.
  5. The second registration API call returns a complete user object,

It is possible to configure your application to use the phoneNumber column as identity. In this case, the second registration API call will include only four properties (phoneNumber, password, transactioniId and transactionCode).

    Login with Phone Number

    Consider a scenario where an application login form requires only user’s phone number. The user enters their phone number, receives a code via SMS and enters the code into the application to complete the login. This scenario is supported by the API documented below. The process consists of the following steps which include two service API calls:

    1. Application initiates user login with phone number by making first API call to the Twilio Integration Plugin API service.
    2. Twilio Integration plugin verifies that a user with the provided phone number exists and sends a code to the user’s phone number.
    3. The API call response is a transactionId value.
    4. The second API call by the application completes the login by sending transactionId and code to the Twilio Integration Plugin service.
    5. If the code is confirmed, the second call’s response is the logged in user object.

      1. Request to initiate the login:
        POST https://api.backendless.com/APP-ID/REST-API-KEY/services/Twilio/loginWithPhoneNumber

        Request Body is just a string value of the phone number:

        "PHONE-NUMBER-VALUE"

        Response Body

        { "transactionId":"VALUE" }
      2. Request to confirm code:
        POST https://api.backendless.com/APP-ID/REST-API-KEY/services/Twilio/loginWithCode

        Request Body:

        { 
  "transactionId":"TRANSACTION ID VALUE FROM STEP1",
  "code" : "CODE SENT VIA SMS"  
}

        Response Body:

        {
 "___jsonclass": "Users",
 "lastLogin": 1590527843419,
 "userStatus": "ENABLED",
 "created": 1590527533000,
 "ownerId": "CBFA6722-58AD-12BE-FF80-28999D7D0200",
 "socialAccount": "BACKENDLESS",
  "___class": "Users",
 "blUserLocale": "en",
 "user-token": "B83FA46D-A19A-A8CE-FF2B-976B7A1D8100",
 "updated":  null,
 "email": "VALUE",
 "objectId": "CBFA6722-58AD-12BE-FF80-28999D7D0200"
}

        The user-token property value is important, as it identifies the session of the user with Backendless. The value must be passed to the server as an HTTP header with all subsequent API calls.
