I'm not sure what I've messed up, but I'm receiving this error when attempting to send a POST request from Power Automate to a Twilio Flow.

Was able to trigger the Twilio Flow from PowerShell, but cannot replicate on Power Automate.

{
  "code": 20001,
  "message": "Missing required parameter To in the post body",
  "more_info": "https://www.twilio.com/docs/errors/20001",
  "status": 400
}

input

output

    To elaborate, I've tried changing the content type between 'application/x-www-form-urlencoded' and 'application/json' along with using Power Automate's fucntion 'encodeUriComponent' a few different combinations on the body.. – RPE-PeterD Jun 07 '21 at 19:19
  • Try sending the request to ngrok and stare and compare the result in the ngrok debug to identify the issue. – Alan Jun 08 '21 at 00:55

This ended up working for me.

http_req_post_2

  • Change Content-Type value to

  • application/x-www-form-urlencoded; charset=utf-8

  • Change Body value to

    • To=%2B12223334444&From=%2B15556667777

    • 12223334444 = Send To #

    • 15556667777 = Send From # (Twilio Phone # assigned the Flow)
