Apidaze Voice Documentation

Introduction

With this API you can create or add voice features to your apps while still using your favorite programming language. No knowledge of complex telephone systems is required. You just need a web server and follow simple steps to make it work.

API specification

Test the API on SwaggerHub

Conceptual model

Definitions

Callback (WebHook)

A Callback or WebHook is a HTTP POST callback implemented by you, that can be called by another system when an event is triggered on that system to notify you. You will need to make the address of your webhook/callback known on the other system to make it work.

Virtual number

A virtual number is a telephone number without a directly associated telephone line. Usually these numbers are programmed to forward incoming calls to one of the pre-set telephone numbers, chosen by the client: fixed, mobile or VoIP.

SIP

The Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) is used for signaling and controlling multimedia communication sessions in applications of Internet telephony for voice and video calls, in private IP telephone systems, in instant messaging over Internet Protocol (IP) networks as well as mobile phone calling over LTE (VoLTE).

API workflow

Features and constraints

Features

• Event based system that will be triggered during the call flow.
• Use your own scripting to take action on events in the call flow.
• Support for sample playing in .wav format.
• Text to speech support.

• For text to speech currently supported languages are: en-US, fr-FR, it-IT and es-ES.

Getting started

Make sure you've read What's in it for you for more info on how to register and start testing APIs.

Authentication

The API follows the KPN Store API Authentication Standard to secure the API. It includes the use of OAuth 2.0 client_id and client_secret to receive an access token.

Go to the Authentication tab on top of this page to find out how to:

• Authenticate to an API using cURL.
• Authenticate to an API on Swaggerhub.
• Import Open API Specifications (OAS), also called Swagger files into Postman.

Setting up management APIs

You have an API for XML scripting and a VoIP SIP API. These REST management APIs expose actions that help your apps to interact with APIdaze’s Telco platform in multiple ways. Voice traffic never flows through these APIs.

XML scripting API

You can set the URL from where Apidaze fetches XML instructions to run on the Apidaze platform. You can write your various scripts there using the Script Reference and then test them.

VoIP SIP API

You can manage your phone numbers, connect directly with other SIP carriers (inbound and outbound), manage your SIP accounts, voicemail boxes and messages, and provision your hardphones.

To start you need to follow the below steps.

Set the URL for your External Script

Your ExternalScript is the core element of your application. It must be accessible by Apidaze at a public HTTP URL. Any PaaS (Platform as a Service) like Heroku can be used here, and you may of course use your own web infrastructure. You can set the URL of your ExternalScript using 'External Script Create' resource of XML Scripting API.

Set up your code

You can set up your code using the below sources:

Script Reference: the XML instructions set to handle your calls

API Reference: the REST based management APIs

Set up your SIP account

Create your SIP account using 'SIP Account Create' resource of VoIP SIP API.

Set up your SIP client

In order to setup your SIP client your need fetch below details using REST APIs. We will use Zoiper as an example SIP Client.

a) Domain/Host: You can get this info using 'SIP Account Status' resource of VoIP SIP API. Ask our support for the key.

b) Username: You can get this info using 'SIP Account List' resource of VoIP SIP API.

c) Password: You can get this info using 'SIP Account List' resource of VoIP SIP API.

d) 'Optional SIP credentials' > 'Use outbound proxy' should be filled with 46.101.153.96:4060. This is a fixed value and you cannot configure it.

e) Account Name: You will see this in your app once your registration is successful.

Your configuration should look like this:
