Upgrade Guide

MAJOR version bumps will have upgrade notes posted here.

[2024-02-20] 8.x.x to 9.x.x

Overview

Twilio Python Helper Library’s major version 9.0.0 is now available. We ensured that you can upgrade to Python helper Library 9.0.0 version without any breaking changes of existing apis

Behind the scenes Python Helper is now auto-generated via OpenAPI with this release. This enables us to rapidly add new features and enhance consistency across versions and languages. We're pleased to inform you that version 9.0.0 adds support for the application/json content type in the request body.
