Google App Engine / Twilio SSLError: Max retries exceeded

Good day, everyone. I'm just trying to run the Twilio quickstart script (from this webpage: https://www.twilio.com/docs/sms/quickstart/python) on my Google App Engine app.

It runs perfectly as-is on my local machine, and when I deploy it (the exact same script) to my Google App Engine app so I can send SMS's on-demand using a GET request to my app, I get the following error:

SSLError: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='api.twilio.com', port=443): Max retries exceeded with url: /2010-04-01/Accounts/ACcaf61e51a95ba4454501293b8908aefd/Messages.json (Caused by SSLError("Can't connect to HTTPS URL because the SSL module is not available.",))

I've tried adding SSL to my GAE app.yaml with no luck.

I fixed it by manually specifying SSL version "2.7.11" in my app.yaml instead of using "latest."

Getting outbound HTTPS working in app engine requires some coercing. Have you tried everything in my answer to this questions?
