# Twilio Verify Collector Decision node

Collects a one-time passcode from the user and validates it against the [Twilio Verify](https://www.twilio.com/verify) service.

Place this node after the [Twilio Verify Sender node](twilio-verify-sender.html) in the authentication flow.

## Twilio examples

### Prompt user for phone number

The following example validates the user's username and password, asks the user for their phone number, and sends a one-time passcode over SMS to that phone number. In this example, the [Twilio Verify Sender node](twilio-verify-sender.html) has the Request Identifier enabled. In production, alter this flow to pull the user's `userIdentifierphoneNumber` from their profile:

### Find phone number in user profile

The following example validates the user's username and password, identifies the user, finds the user's phone number in their profile, and sends a one-time passcode over SMS to that phone number.
