Makecall API

Table of Contents

The Makecall API allows to initiate a call to the PSTN.

Initiate a call to the PSTN: #

Method to initiate a call to the PSTN. You have to provide two phone numbers. In the first step the destination_number will be called. As soon as this call is answered, the tenios_number will be called and the assigned routing plan is executed. If you have provided a callstate_info_url, a HTTPS POST request with callstate information we be sent on every call status change. If you configure a routingplan with an API Routing Control Block for the tenios_number , you will see the id returned by the makecall/init request in the variable callback_id. Furthermore you will see the uuid of the call to the tenios_number in the variable callback_bleg_uuid.

Example: #

{
   "requestType": "EXTERNAL_CALL_CONTROL",
   "customerNumber": 200002,
   "accessKey": "XXXX-XXXX-XXXXX",
   "variables": {
      "callback_bleg_uuid": "615dab09-1a48-4e61-8a0d-9244251cfe6d",

      "caller_id_number": "+492215540030"
   },
