Built-in Field Types

Twilio Autopilot will be shut down on August 25, 2023.

Twilio Autopilot will be disabled for all users on August 25, 2023. After this date, customers won’t be able to access the Autopilot APIs, Console Experience, Studio Widget, and docs. Additionally, Twilio will discontinue including Autopilot support in the new helper library releases and customer support won’t answer tickets or requests regarding Autopilot after Feb 25, 2023. For full details, including migration options, see Autopilot Support at Twilio.

The Built-in Field Types allow you to create fields of a common data type such as Date, Time, Number rather than defining them yourself as a custom Field Type. You should use built-in fields when possible given that they are optimized to understand this type of data.
