Hi @SpaceboyRoss01,

Sorry you’re having trouble. Looks like your SID is either null or empty string. It’s just a simple validation check:

https://github.com/twilio/twilio-node/blob/6283ca3016be05e9355499cfb58b76abb827fe78/lib/rest/Twilio.js#L136-L138

Please verify the input and if you continue having trouble, post a complete code snippet that reproduces the issue.
