Twilio - Sending SMS, WhatsApp, and Facebook messages from Marketo

[Trevor_Parsell]

Hey All,

I have a webhook that can send SMS messages from Marketo using Twilio but am now looking for a similar method for sending Facebook and WhatsApp messages. Has anyone successfully used Twilio Notify ​to send WhatsApp or Facebook messages? How does it work?

Are there any plug-ins/tools outside of Twilio that make it possible to send multiple message types (other than SMS)?

Thanks!

Trevor

You could probably use Zapier to do this more effectively or more cheaply.

I just went to see if Zapier had an action for either WhatsApp or Twilio - the former, nothing, the latter didn't feature a WhatsApp integration.

I wouldn't be surprised if both WhatsApp and Messenger require some hefty integrations using Facebooks app platform.. I can't imagine they'd allow you to lookup up a lead via an email address.. instead they'd need you to connect your page and search for a fan/like within*.

*just guessing.

Thanks, Josh and Nicholas!

So it sounds like there isn't a clear way to do WhatsApp or Facebook message sends from Marketo without some major customization. If anyone has experience using Zapier (or another tool) to send Whatapp/Facebook messages please let me know.

Thanks!

Hi Trevor,

have you figured out how to send Whatsapp or FB messages via Marketo? I am interested in using the same now.

Thanks for letting me know.
