Hey there,

we are trying to use the Twilio for Whatsapp Integration. It is mandatory to use a proxy for outgoing requests. Is there any possibility to configure the connector to use a proxy? Or any modification to the twilio.py file

Always receiving this Error Message:Max Retries exceeded, New Connection error, Unable to reach api.twilio.py

this is similar to your solution on Slack connector has to use proxy for outgoing requests in Docker can you kindly help with twilio

Consider all my requests should go via http://x.x.x.x:1010 -> proxy

Thanks for your help.

It sounds like you’re need it to work as described here and here. Is that right? If so, I think you’d add the TwilioHttpClient call with your proxy here. Give that a try and if it works for you, send us a PR. Maybe this proxy call is only made if you specify proxy_endpoint or something like that i…

I see it’s been a while since you’ve posted, but I just want to ask if anyone’s recently managed to get this working behind a corporate proxy? I'm running into similar issues and wondering if there’s any workaround that doesn't involve setting up a tunnel manually. Has anyone tried updating Rasa or Twilio configs lately that helped with this?

I had the same issue where Twilio couldn't reach my local Rasa server behind a strict firewall. What finally worked for me was setting up a proxy with basic authentication. If you're stuck on getting a reliable proxy service quickly, I opted to buy proxies from Infatica and it worked fine with Twilio’s webhooks once I configured the IP and port in my environment variables.
