Postgres and Twilio integration

n8n lets you integrate Postgres with Twilio to build powerful workflows. Design automation that extracts, transforms and loads data between your apps and services. You can choose from thousands of ready-made apps or use our universal HTTP connector to sync apps not yet in our library.

Integrate Postgres and Twilio

Build your own Postgres and Twilio integration

Create custom Postgres and Twilio workflows by choosing triggers and actions. Nodes come with global operations and settings, as well as app-specific parameters that can be configured. You can also use the HTTP Request node to query data from any app or service with a REST API.

How to connect Postgres and Twilio

  • Step 1: Add the first step

  • Step 2: Add Postgres and Twilio nodes

  • Step 3: Connect Postgres and Twilio

Send SMS alerts based on database queries (Twilio and Postgres)

This workflow automatically queries a Postgres database to find outlier readings for which SMS notifications have not been sent.
This is Workflow 2 in the blog tutorial Database activity monitoring and alerting.

Prerequisites

Nodes

  • Cron node triggers the workflow every minute, so the database is queried at regular intervals.
  • Postgres nodes extract values from, and update values in the database.
  • Twilio node sends an alert SMS about the outlier reading to a specified phone number.
  • Set node sets the notification value to true.
