Connect says Twilio is not available yet
Atlas has not enabled Twilio for this deployment, so there is nothing for you to configure. Check again later.
The credentials are refused
Select Test connection after saving. If Twilio refuses the credentials, check each value in your Twilio account and enter them again.
