@Vapi I am trying to send the request from VAPI webhook to my server. For which I am returning some response. But my AI assistant says it has some issue getting the response. Is there any specific response format required to be sent from the server.
v
@Suraj_Kumar Yes, VAPI expects the response from your server to be in a specific JSON format so that it can properly parse and display the information to the user. The response should be structured with the necessary fields that VAPI can recognize. Here's a general structure you can follow:
Copy code
json
{
  "status": "success",
  "message": "Your message here",
  "data": {
    // Additional data VAPI might need
  }
}
Make sure that: - The
status
field indicates the result of the request (e.g., "success" or "error"). - The
message
field contains a user-friendly message or result of the operation. - The
data
field (optional) can include any additional data you want to return. If your AI assistant is having issues receiving the response, ensure that your server is returning the response in the correct format and that the content type is set to
application/json
. If you continue to face issues, please provide more details or check your server logs to identify the problem. If necessary, you can ask support for more info on this.

res.status(200).send({ status: 'success', message: 'Geocoded address retrieved successfully', data: geocodedAddress, }); Is this the correct way of sending response @Vapi
v
@Suraj_Kumar Yes, that looks like the correct way to send a JSON response from your server. You're setting the HTTP status code to 200, which indicates a successful request, and you're sending a JSON object with the keys
status
,
message
, and
data
, which is a good practice for API responses. The
data
field contains the
geocodedAddress
, which presumably holds the result of the geocoding operation. Just ensure that
geocodedAddress
is in the correct format that the client (or VAPI) expects. If everything is set up correctly, the client should be able to parse this response and use the geocoded address data as needed.

But using this format also gives me error
@Vapi
v
@Suraj_Kumar I'm sorry to hear that you're encountering errors. To assist you better, I would need more information about the error message you're receiving and the context in which this response is being sent. Here are a few common issues to check: 1. Ensure that
geocodedAddress
contains the data in the expected format and that it is not
null
or
undefined
. 2. Verify that your server is correctly configured to handle JSON responses. 3. Check that the client making the request to your server is expecting the response in the format you're sending. 4. Look at the server logs to see if there are any internal errors that might be causing the response to fail. If you can provide the error message or describe the situation in more detail, I can offer more targeted advice. If the issue persists and you're unable to resolve it, please ask support for more info on this.

In VAPI Dashboard's webhook section. The response is received properly @Vapi
v
@Suraj_Kumar Great to hear that the response is received properly in the VAPI Dashboard's webhook section. If the response is being received as expected, it suggests that your server is correctly sending the response and VAPI is able to receive it. If you are still experiencing issues, it could be related to how the response is being processed after it's received by VAPI. Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot further: 1. Check the Webhook Logs: Look at the detailed logs in the VAPI Dashboard to see if there are any errors after the response is received. 2. Review the Response Handling: Make sure that the logic that processes the webhook response in VAPI is working as expected. There might be an issue with how the data is being handled or interpreted. 3. Test with Different Data: Try sending different sets of data in the
geocodedAddress
to see if the issue is data-specific. 4. Contact Support: If you've gone through these steps and the issue is still unresolved, it might be best to reach out to VAPI support with specific details about the problem for further assistance. Remember, if you need to close the support ticket because the issue is resolved, you can call the
functions.close_ticket
function. If you need to do so, please let me know, and I can assist with that process.

[Identity] You are Lisa, an AI voice assistant to help users generate a quotation to provide an estimation of installing solar panels on their rooftops. [Response Guideline] - During the conversation, if the user wants to speak to a representative, immediately transfer the call to the mentioned number. - Be informative and comprehensive. - Maintain a professional and polite tone. - Be concise, as you are currently operating as a Voice Conversation. [Task] 1. Ask the user their name: "To get started, can I have your name?" 2. Once you have their name, ask their address: "Can you please let me know the address where you want to get the solar installed? Please include house number, street name, city, and state." 3. Trigger the getGeocodedAddress tool using the provided address. 4. If the response is missing or invalid, say: "I’m sorry, but I wasn’t able to verify the address. Can you please confirm the details again?" 5. If successful, trigger the tool 'getAddress' using the details city, country, googlePlaceId, latitude, longitude, postalCode, state and streetName and save the details in variable say 'savedAddress' 6. Now send the details like {{savedAddress.id}} as addressId, annualConsumptionInWh as 0, monthlyBill as told by user and {{organizationId}} 7. Say: "Thank you for providing the information. I am evaluating weather data, your home rooftop, and solar radiance to generate a solar quotation. Please wait for a few seconds." 8. End the call. This is the prompt that I am using
