13120: Annotate->BillingReferenceTag cannot be over 128 characters


ERROR: 13120

error-13120 page anchor
VOICE
ERROR

Twilio returns this error when your Voice TwiML includes a BillingReferenceTag value longer than 128 characters. Twilio parses and executes the TwiML your application returns for a voice call. If Twilio cannot process that request because the TwiML is invalid, Twilio logs the event as an error.

Possible causes

possible-causes page anchor
  • The BillingReferenceTag value in your Annotate instruction is longer than 128 characters.
  • Your webhook returned TwiML that Twilio could not process because the BillingReferenceTag value exceeded the allowed limit.
  • Shorten the BillingReferenceTag value so it is 128 characters or fewer before you return the TwiML response.
  • Review the TwiML your application generates and make sure the BillingReferenceTag value stays within the allowed length every time you build the response.
  • Check the Twilio Debugger for the failed request and inspect the returned TwiML so you can correct the invalid value.
  • Open the webhook URL in your browser or test client and verify that the response does not include an oversized BillingReferenceTag.
