Summary

Twilio has announced the addition of eight new integrations to its Twilio Channels platform, which allows developers to send and receive messages on multiple channels using the same APIs. The new integrations include Facebook Messenger, LINE, WhatsApp Business, Notify, Programmable SMS, Proxy, RCS Business Messaging, and Channels in Public Beta for Facebook Messenger and LINE, while others are available in Developer Preview. With Twilio Channels, developers can support a wide range of messaging platforms with one API, reducing the complexity and cost associated with supporting multiple channels. This allows developers to provide customers with better end-to-end experiences using their preferred messaging services. The platform now supports integrations with various tools such as Notify, Programmable SMS, and Proxy, enabling developers to create new experiences like sending notifications on the right device at the right time or anonymously connecting buyers and sellers into one messaging thread.
