Snap Settings

Parameter Name	Data Type	Description	Default Value	Example

Parameter Name	Data Type	Description	Default Value	Example
Label	String		N/A	Twilio Create
API object	String/Expression	Required. Select the API that you want to access in Twilio instance. This drop-down contains APIs (set of business objects) defined by Twilio.	Programmable SMS	Autopilot
Entity	String/Expression/Suggestion	Required. Select an entity that belongs to the corresponding API object chosen above, (the resources to retrieve for the selected API object). For example, Messages entity belongs to the Programmable SMS API object. In this field, the available entities are dynamically populated in the suggestion drop-down list based on the selected API object.	Messages	Assistant
Required SIDs	Use this field set to define the parent entity String Identifiers (SIDs) necessary for accessing the requested resources, if any. Twilio's API designs follow a hierarchical pattern to indicate relationships among entities. For example, you can build an autopilot assistant to answer incoming calls with a task model. In this case, the 'Task' entity is considered as a property of 'Assistant' entity. Each 'Assistant' is instantiated with a SID, and one assistant can have many tasks with it. To retrieve the record for one of the tasks, you must provide the task's parent assistant SID in the Require SIDs table.
SID name	String/Expression/Suggestion	Specify the name of the parent SIDs of the input Entity. The available entities are dynamically populated in the suggestion list according to the specified Entity.	None	AssistantSid
SID value	String	Specify the SID value for the corresponding SID name chosen above.	None	UA12ab387lbn432nbvl987fde9as349
Connection details	Use this field set to configure the network connection parameters. This field set contains the following fields: Connection timeout Maximum request attempts Retry request interval
Connection timeout	Integer	Required. Specify the connection timeout duration in seconds.	30	60
Maximum request attempts	Integer	Required. Specify the maximum number of connection attempts if the connection fails or is timed-out.	0	6
Retry request interval	Integer	Required. Specify the time in seconds to wait before retrying the connection request.	0	3
Snap Execution	Dropdown list	Select one of the three following modes in which the Snap executes: Validate & Execute. Performs limited execution of the Snap and generates a data preview during Pipeline validation, then performs full execution of the Snap (unlimited records) during Pipeline runtime. Execute only. Performs full execution of the Snap during Pipeline execution without generating preview data. Disabled. Disables the Snap and all Snaps downstream from it.	Execute Only	Validate & Execute

Troubleshooting

Error	Reason	Resolution

Error	Reason	Resolution
The input entity does not exist.	An invalid entity has been entered.	Select a valid entity from the suggestion drop-down list.
One or more Required SIDs are missing.	The Required SIDs are mandatory for this Endpoint.	Check your settings under the Required SIDs table and provide values accordingly.
You have an empty value in the SID name/value field for the Required SID.	The SID name/value field must not be empty for Required SIDs.	Enter a valid SID name/value for Required SID.
