### Answer It has been noted in discussions on Discord that the

cost

field in the webhook payload may show as $0 because the call object sent in webhooks is from the start of the call and might not reflect the final or updated costs [(1)]() . To obtain the most accurate and up-to-date cost for a call, you should use the

GET /call/:id

endpoint to fetch the latest information about the call. This method ensures that you receive the current cost details, as the initial webhook payload might not include finalized cost calculations.

It is due to performance reasons the end-of-call-report is stale. You can get the accurate cost by simply making a request to /call the endpoint with the call_id that you receive in end-of-call-report
