Redis and Twilio integration

Save yourself the work of writing custom integrations for Redis and Twilio and use n8n instead. Build adaptable and scalable Development, Data & Storage, and Communication workflows that work with your technology stack. All within a building experience you will love.

How to connect Redis and Twilio

  • Step 1: Create a new workflow
  • Step 2: Add and configure nodes
  • Step 3: Connect
  • Step 4: Customize and extend your integration
  • Step 5: Test and activate your workflow

Step 1: Create a new workflow and add the first step

In n8n, click the "Add workflow" button in the Workflows tab to create a new workflow. Add the starting point – a trigger on when your workflow should run: an app event, a schedule, a webhook call, another workflow, an AI chat, or a manual trigger. Sometimes, the HTTP Request node might already serve as your starting point.

Step 2: Add and configure Redis and Twilio nodes

You can find Redis and Twilio in the nodes panel. Drag them onto your workflow canvas, selecting their actions. Click each node, choose a credential, and authenticate to grant n8n access. Configure Redis and Twilio nodes one by one: input data on the left, parameters in the middle, and output data on the right.

Step 3: Connect Redis and Twilio

A connection establishes a link between Redis and Twilio (or vice versa) to route data through the workflow. Data flows from the output of one node to the input of another. You can have single or multiple connections for each node.

Step 4: Customize and extend your Redis and Twilio integration

Use n8n's core nodes such as If, Split Out, Merge, and others to transform and manipulate data. Write custom JavaScript or Python in the Code node and run it as a step in your workflow. Connect Redis and Twilio with any of n8n’s 1000+ integrations, and incorporate advanced AI logic into your workflows.

Step 5: Test and activate your Redis and Twilio workflow

Save and run the workflow to see if everything works as expected. Based on your configuration, data should flow from Redis to Twilio or vice versa. Easily debug your workflow: you can check past executions to isolate and fix the mistake. Once you've tested everything, make sure to save your workflow and activate it.

Enhance Customer Chat by Buffering Messages with Twilio and Redis

This n8n workflow demonstrates a simple approach to improve chat UX by staggering an AI Agent's reply for users who send in a sequence of partial messages and in short bursts.

How it works
Twilio webhook receives user's messages which are recorded in a message stack powered by Redis.
The execution is immediately paused for 5 seconds and then another check is done against the message stack for the latest message.
The purpose of this check lets use know if the user is sending more messages or if they are waiting for a reply.
The execution is aborted if the latest message on the stack differs from the incoming message and continues if they are the same.
For the latter, the agent receives the buffered messages up to that point and is able to respond to them in a single reply.

Requirements
A Twilio account and SMS-enabled phone number to receive messages.
Redis instance for the messages stack.
OpenAI account for the language model.

Customising the workflow

This workflow should work for other common messaging platforms such as Whatsapp and Telegram.

5 seconds too long or too short? Adjust the wait threshold to suit your customers.
