After configuring the base Twilio component, add and configure either or both of the [twilio SMS](/components/notify.twilio_sms/) and [twilio Phone](/components/notify.twilio_call) components to utilize the notification functionality.
To be able to receive events from Twilio, your Home Assistant instance needs to be accessible from the web ([Hass.io instructions](/addons/duckdns/)) and you need to have the `base_url` configured for the HTTP component ([docs](https://www.home-assistant.io/components/http/#base_url)).
To set it up, go to the integrations page in the configuration screen and find Mailgun. Click on configure. Follow the instructions on the screen to configure Mailgun.
You will get a URL of the following format: `https://<home-assistant-domain>/api/webhook/9940e99a26fae4dcf6fe0a478124b6b58b578ea4c55c9a584beb1c9f5057bb91`. To generate inbound events, you have to configure your webhooks with [Twilio](https://www.twilio.com/docs/glossary/what-is-a-webhook)
Events coming in from Twilio will be available as events in Home Assistant and are fired as `twilio_data_received`. The data specified by Twilio will be available as the event data. You can use this event to trigger automations.
You can then consume that information with the following automation:
```yaml
automation:
trigger:
platform: event
event_type: twilio_data_received
event_data:
action: call_service
action:
service: light.turn_on
entity_id: light.office
```
