Webhooks facilitate real-time communication between websites or applications by allowing one application to send HTTP requests, including payload data, to another application when a predefined event or trigger occurs.
With the Voiso Webhooks feature, developers can subscribe to call events, offering numerous advantages for custom integrations and automated tasks:
Add and manage your webhooks using the Webhooks page. For more information, refer to Webhooks in the Voiso Documentation Portal.
When coding your response to the webhook, note that Voiso expects an HTTP 200 status code to indicate a successful operation. If no response is received, Voiso assumes that the request timed out or an error occurred.
The Webhooks feature supports the following call events:
| Event | Description | Webhook |
|---|---|---|
| outbound.call.answered | A contact answers an outbound call. | Outbound calls |
| outbound.call.hangup | An outbound call ends. | Outbound calls |
| outbound.call.ended | An outbound call is completed. | Outbound calls |
| inbound.call.answered | An agent answers an inbound call. | Inbound calls |
| inbound.call.hangup | An inbound call ends. | Inbound calls |
| inbound.call.ended | An inbound call is completed. | Inbound calls |
| dialer.call.answered | An agent is connected to a Dialer call answered by a contact. | Outbound dialer campaigns |
| dialer.call.hangup | A Dialer call ends. | Outbound Dialer campaigns |

| message.received | An agent receives a new reply in an ongoing conversation. | Digital interactions |
| conversation.ended | A digital conversation is archived (ends), and an agent assigns a wrap-up code. | Digital interactions |
