Telnyx Voice Advanced - Ruby

Installation

gem install telnyx

Setup

require "telnyx"

client = Telnyx::Client.new(
  api_key: ENV["TELNYX_API_KEY"], # This is the default and can be omitted
)

All examples below assume `client` is already initialized as shown above.

Error Handling

All API calls can fail with network errors, rate limits (429), validation errors (422), or authentication errors (401). Always handle errors in production code:

begin
  result = client.messages.send_(to: "+13125550001", from: "+13125550002", text: "Hello")
rescue Telnyx::Errors::APIConnectionError
  puts "Network error — check connectivity and retry"
rescue Telnyx::Errors::RateLimitError
  # 429: rate limited — wait and retry with exponential backoff
  sleep(1) # Check Retry-After header for actual delay
rescue Telnyx::Errors::APIStatusError => e
  puts "API error #{e.status}: #{e.message}"
  if e.status == 422
    puts "Validation error — check required fields and formats"
  end
end

Common error codes: `401` invalid API key, `403` insufficient permissions, `404` resource not found, `422` validation error (check field formats), `429` rate limited (retry with exponential backoff).

Join AI Assistant Conversation

Add a participant to an existing AI assistant conversation. Use this command to bring an additional call leg into a running AI conversation.

`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/ai_assistant_join` — Required: `conversation_id`, `participant`

Optional: `client_state` (string), `command_id` (string)

response = client.calls.actions.join_ai_assistant(
  "call_control_id",
  conversation_id: "v3:abc123",
  participant: {id: "v3:abc123def456", role: :user}
)

puts(response)

Returns: `conversation_id` (uuid), `result` (string)

Update client state

Updates client state

`PUT /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/client_state_update` — Required: `client_state`

response = client.calls.actions.update_client_state("call_control_id", client_state: "aGF2ZSBhIG5pY2UgZGF5ID1d")

puts(response)

Returns: `result` (string)

Start Conversation Relay

Start a Conversation Relay session on an active call. Conversation Relay connects the call audio to your WebSocket so your application can exchange realtime messages with the caller while Telnyx handles speech recognition and text-to-speech. Only one AI Assistant or Conversation Relay session can be active on a call at a time.

`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/conversation_relay_start`

Optional: `assistant` (object), `client_state` (string), `command_id` (string), `conversation_relay_dtmf_detection` (boolean), `conversation_relay_settings` (object), `conversation_relay_url` (string), `custom_parameters` (object), `dtmf_detection` (boolean), `greeting` (string), `interruptible` (enum: none, any, speech, dtmf), `interruptible_greeting` (enum: none, any, speech, dtmf), `interruption_settings` (object), `language` (string), `languages` (array[object]), `provider` (string), `structured_provider` (object), `transcription` (object), `transcription_engine` (enum: Google, Telnyx, Deepgram, Azure, xAI, AssemblyAI, Speechmatics, Soniox, A, B), `transcription_engine_config` (object), `tts_provider` (string), `url` (string), `voice` (string), `voice_settings` (object)

response = client.calls.actions.start_conversation_relay("v3:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_gRU1OGRkYQ")

puts(response)

Returns: `conversation_relay_id` (string), `result` (string)

Stop Conversation Relay

Stop the active Conversation Relay session on a call.

`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/conversation_relay_stop`

Optional: `client_state` (string), `command_id` (string)

response = client.calls.actions.stop_conversation_relay("v3:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_gRU1OGRkYQ")

puts(response)

Returns: `result` (string)

Send DTMF

Sends DTMF tones from this leg. DTMF tones will be heard by the other end of the call. **Expected Webhooks:**

There are no webhooks associated with this command.

`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/send_dtmf` — Required: `digits`

Optional: `client_state` (string), `command_id` (string), `duration_millis` (int32)

response = client.calls.actions.send_dtmf("call_control_id", digits: "1www2WABCDw9")

puts(response)

Returns: `result` (string)

SIPREC start

Start siprec session to configured in SIPREC connector SRS.

**Expected Webhooks:**

• `siprec.started`
• `siprec.stopped`
• `siprec.failed`

`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/siprec_start`

Optional: `client_state` (string), `connector_name` (string), `include_metadata_custom_headers` (boolean), `secure` (boolean), `session_timeout_secs` (integer), `sip_transport` (enum: udp, tcp, tls), `siprec_track` (enum: inbound_track, outbound_track, both_tracks)

response = client.calls.actions.start_siprec("v3:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_gRU1OGRkYQ")

puts(response)

Returns: `result` (string)
