Twilio Examples
SMS Phone Verification
This is a basic SMS phone verification example. How it works:
- It uses Twilio Verify to verify phone numbers and add an additional layer of security
- Helps prevent fraudulent users from registering with your business
- It renders a UI to create an account on a (fictional) website
- The customer would enter a username, password and phone number
- It will then send the customer an SMS for 2-Factor Authentication (2FA)
- The customer will be asked to enter a verification code into the webpage to verify their account
- When the app receives the SMS from the customer, it will validate the verification code entered against the Twilio Verify service
const result = await account.verify.v2 .services(VERIFICATION_SERVICE_SID) .verifications.create({ to: phoneNumber, channel });
const verificationCheck = await account.verify.v2 .services(VERIFICATION_SERVICE_SID) .verificationChecks.create({ to: phoneNumber, code: verificationCode });
