Short answer: I can’t find an official ElevenLabs tutorial that specifically walks through “Twilio Send SMS” as an Agent tool. The Twilio integration content ElevenLabs publishes today focuses on telephony (inbound/outbound calls), not SMS. (elevenlabs.io)

What you can do today (documented path)

  • Use a Server Tool (webhook) to call any external API from an Agent. In the Agent settings, add a Tool, choose Webhook, and configure method, URL, headers, and parameters. You orchestrate when/how it’s called via the Agent’s system prompt and can map responses into dynamic variables. (elevenlabs.io)
  • Configure authentication for that tool via Workspace Auth Connections. ElevenLabs supports OAuth2 client credentials, OAuth2 JWT, Basic Auth, Bearer tokens, and custom headers. (elevenlabs.io)
  • If you prefer IaC, the Agents CLI lets you add a webhook tool from a JSON config (agents add webhook-tool ...). (elevenlabs.io)

References

  • Server Tools (how to add a webhook tool, orchestration, dynamic variables, and auth methods). (elevenlabs.io)
  • Tools overview (tool types supported by Agents). (elevenlabs.io)
  • Agents CLI (adding webhook tools via CLI). (elevenlabs.io)
  • Twilio integration pages (voice calling focus; no SMS tutorial shown). (elevenlabs.io)

If ElevenLabs publishes an SMS-specific guide later, it would likely appear under the Tools or Integrations sections of the Agents docs or Help Center. As of October 5, 2025, there isn’t one documented publicly. (elevenlabs.io)
