Webhooks#

About Webhooks#

Webhooks allow Kazoo to send HTTP requests to a third-party web server, alerting that server of events occurring within Kazoo. Typically, events would be fired for new calls, when a call is answered, and when a call is finished, though other events will be added in the future.

Schema#

Web Hooks are subscriptions to allowed events that, when the event occurs, the event data is sent to the uri set in the Web Hook document.

List Webhook Attempts#

Webhooks tracks attempts to send the hook payloads to your URIs. You can get a listing of the more recent attempts to help debug what went wrong.

!!! note By default clusters are not configured to store successful webhook attempts.

GET /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/webhooks/attempts

curl -v -X GET \
    -H "X-Auth-Token: {AUTH_TOKEN}" \
    http://{SERVER}:8000/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/webhooks/attempts
{
    "auth_token": "{AUTH_TOKEN}",
    "data": [
        {
            "client_error": "nxdomain",
            "hook_id": "{HOOK_ID}",
            "reason": "kazoo http client error",
            "result": "failure",
            "retries left": 2,
            "timestamp": 63590996563
        },
        {

    http://{SERVER}:8000/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/webhooks/{WEBHOOK_ID}/attempts

Re-enable auto-disabled hooks in bulk#

Webhooks will auto-disable failing hooks (if Kazoo can't reach your server, or you take too long to respond with 200 OK, for instance). Especially if you're a reseller with webhooks in your client accounts, it can be tedious to have to iterate through all your accounts and re-enable each hook. Fortunately, you can perform this bulk-enable action against an account or an account and its descendants.

Enable an account's hooks

PATCH /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/webhooks

curl -v -X PATCH \
    -H "X-Auth-Token: {AUTH_TOKEN}" \
    -d '{"data":{"re-enable":true}}' \
    http://{SERVER}:8000/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/webhooks

Enable an account's and descendant accounts' hooks

PATCH /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/descendants/webhooks

curl -v -X PATCH \
    -H "X-Auth-Token: {AUTH_TOKEN}" \
    -d '{"data":{"re-enable":true}}' \
    http://{SERVER}:8000/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/descendants/webhooks

Hook Payload#

Here's what you can expect to receive when a webhook fires to your server:

Base Payload#

  • hook_event: The type of hook being fired
  • call_direction: "inbound" or "outbound", relative to Kazoo
  • timestamp: Gregorian timestamp of the event
  • account_id: ID of the account generating the event
  • request: SIP Request
  • to: SIP To
  • from: SIP From
  • call_id: SIP Call ID
  • other_leg_call_id: If bridged, the Call ID of the other leg
  • caller_id_name: Caller ID Name
  • caller_id_number: Caller ID Number
  • callee_id_name: Callee Name
  • callee_id_number: Callee Number

Most of these fields should be present on all payloads.

Hook Specific fields#

  • channel_create
    • hook_event: channel_create
  • channel_answer
    • hook_event: channel_answer
  • channel_destroy
    • hook_event: channel_destroy
    • hangup_cause: SIP Hangup Cause (NORMAL_CLEARING, ORIGINATOR_CANCEL, etc)
    • hangup_code: SIP Hangup Code (404, 503, etc)
  • object
    • hook_event: object
    • action: doc_created, doc_updated, doc_deleted
    • type: user, vmbox, callflow, account, device, faxbox, media

Hook Specific Custom Data#

To restrict the kind of document or the action or both. You can set the custom data to:

{"name":"User edited webhook"
 ,"hook":"object"
 ,"custom_data":{
    "type": "user",
    "action": "doc_edited"
 }
 ,"uri":"https://..."
}

Both type and action will accept "all" to avoid needing to create a hook per action/type combinations.
