Hi. I use Autopilot. Inside, I have a task with action "redirect", which redirects to my express server. I know I could use Twilio functions, but I also need to access DB. I would like to process the request sent from Twilio in express. But I am unable to extract the data from request. Both req.params and req.query are empty.
EDIT: I changed method on both sides to GET and now it works.
EDIT2: The problem has emerged again. I need to use POST method to be able to access Memory. But params, query and body are all empty.

I'm glad you were able to unblock yourself. Yes you have to use the app.use(bodyParser.urlencoded({ extended: false})) option because Twilio performs HTTP POST requests with the data type of application/x-www-form-urlencoded and Express has removed automatic body parsing from their implementation some time ago.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
