But I want to send message through whatsapp. I change in the mautic plugin the sender number and include the “whatsaap:” follow with the number sender approved on twilio.

I would recommend to avoid using Twilio API with any third part app as it is hazardous to your device. I am telling this because I have tried to integrate modified whatsapp once.

I am using the 1.0.0 version of Uipath.Twilio.Activities package in one of my machine where my workflow is running completely fine.  
On the other hand, in my another machine it is not working with the same package but if I use 1.0.0 preview package then only it is working.
