Twilio Frontline Voice Extensibility

The Twilio Programmable Voice <Connect> TwiML verb now supports the new TwiML noun <Conversation> as a resource target. This allows for fine-grained customization of Voice and Messaging workflows in Twilio Frontline. Frontline developers can inject custom actions into different stages of an active call. Example use cases include:

  • Executing other Voice TwiML instructions before connecting a customer and a Frontline worker (e.g. customers are sent to an IVR before being connected to a Frontline worker)
  • Configuring in-call behavior (e.g. to enable recording for all calls)
  • Configuring call behavior after a participant leaves the call or when an error occurs (e.g. a customer is prompted to leave a voicemail message in the event no Frontline worker answers their call)

Check out the docs for more information on how to use the new <Connect><Conversation> TwiML functionality in your application.
