Twilio offers two ways for you to try new products:

• A 30-day free trial that lets you try multiple products
• Product-specific trials for upgraded accounts

To learn more about Twilio's trial experience, including the products you can try, trial restrictions, and post-upgrade free trial units, see the Twilio trial account documentation.

To switch to Twilio products that are not in the Twilio Console, like Twilio Segment or Twilio SendGrid:

1. From the home page in the Twilio console, click the Twilio dropdown next to the user icon.
2. Select the Twilio product you'd like to open from the list of available products. The console for that product opens in a new tab.

If you've opted to link your Twilio and Segment or Twilio and SendGrid credentials using Twilio Unified Login, you'll automatically be signed in to Segment or SendGrid.

If you have separate credentials for Twilio and Segment or Twilio and SendGrid, Twilio redirects you to the sign in page for your service.

To view information about recent errors, go to the Twilio Debugger (Develop > Troubleshoot > Debugger) in the console. By default, the Twilio Debugger shows errors that occurred within the last 24 hours.

• Error code
• Source
• Event type

To learn more about Twilio Alarms, see Alarms.

Use the Twilio Workbench, accessible from anywhere in the Twilio Console, to access the Debugger and Alarms.

You can use Workbench to find errors, add real-time logs to your own monitoring systems, and fix integration problems.

To learn more about Twilio Workbench, see Twilio Workbench.

You can access the documentation and the Twilio Help Center in a new tab from the Twilio console's homepage or use Twilio's AI Assistant to access documentation and support tickets from within the console.
