When Twilio and Procore operate independently, critical communication data can be lost during project updates. For instance, if a project manager receives an SMS notification via Twilio about a change order, but this data isn't automatically reflected in Procore, the project team may continue to work with outdated information. This leads to manual data entry where team members have to cross-reference SMS updates with Procore, consuming valuable hours that could be spent on actual project work.

Top Ways to Automate Twilio & Procore

  • Automated SMS Notifications: Instantly notify team members of project updates, schedule changes, or urgent issues via SMS, ensuring everyone stays informed in real-time.
  • Streamlined Task Management: Automatically create tasks in Procore based on incoming messages from Twilio, eliminating manual entry and reducing the risk of oversight.
  • Centralized Communication Logs: Capture all Twilio communications within Procore, providing a comprehensive record of interactions and enhancing accountability across teams.

How to Build the Twilio → Procore Sync

  1. Set up a Twilio webhook to listen for incoming SMS messages at the endpoint https://yourdomain.com/twilio-webhook.
  2. In your webhook handler, extract the relevant data from the incoming payload, specifically the From, Body, and Timestamp fields.
  3. Construct a JSON object that includes the extracted data, formatted as follows: { "phone_number": "From", "message": "Body", "received_at": "Timestamp" }.
  4. Use the Procore REST API to insert this data into the appropriate project by sending a POST request to https://api.procore.com/vapid/projects/{project_id}/messages, including the JSON object in the request body.
  5. Ensure that you handle any errors returned from the Procore API, such as invalid project IDs or authentication failures, to maintain data integrity.

Developer Warnings & API Gotchas

  • Be cautious with the data types when mapping Twilio's From number to Procore's expected format; Procore may require a specific format for phone numbers.
  • Ensure that the Timestamp from Twilio is converted to UTC format before sending it to Procore, as discrepancies in time zones can lead to incorrect data entries.
  • Watch for the maximum character limits in Procore's message field; if Twilio's Body exceeds this limit, it may cause the API request to fail.
