Callflows

About Callflows

Callflows are the instructions Kazoo uses to process a call. A callflow includes a list of numbers or regex patterns used by Kazoo to determine what callflow is used when a call comes in for an account. The flow parameter defines the tree of actions, allowing branching (such as in the menu action) and chaining actions together. You can also branch to other callflows and execute its flow (useful to avoid recreating the same sub-flow structure).

Schema

Call flows describe steps to take in order to process a phone call. They are trees of information related to a phone call such as “answer, play file, record file” etc. that are logically grouped together and ordered.
