How are you importing it in your function or where are you getting stuck? For starters you'll want to import the package a little differently than you would in a normal js file in your app - https://github.com/ije/esm.sh

Yes, I was aware of that Drew thanks, I tried various things with the import but no luck, It wasn't helping that all my logging wasn't working either. I am currently just doing it via a post request as outlined in this related blog post: https://www.twilio.com/blog/sending-sms-messages-deno-typescript-twilio-messaging

   const request = fetch(
     'https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/' +
       this.accountSID +
       '/Messages.json',
     {
       method: 'POST',
       headers: {
         'Content-Type':
           'application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8',
         Authorization: this.authorizationHeader,
       },
       body: new URLSearchParams(payload).toString(),
     }
   ).then((resp) => resp.json());
