Integration of VAPI with Genesys Cloud for Our Cli...

Hi Support, We’re working on an integration for our client, we plan to use VAPI’s AI voice agents to manage inbound calls, qualify leads, and transfer them to Genesys Cloud agents when necessary. Since SIP trunking is not yet available, we want to confirm the best way to achieve this integration while ensuring seamless call handling and data transfer. What We Need: 1. AI Handles Calls First: - Calls enter VAPI, where the AI answers, collects caller details, and qualifies the request. - The AI should extract key information such as policy details, reason for calling, and urgency. 2. Call Transfer to Genesys Cloud (With Context): - If a human agent is required, the call should be transferred to Genesys Cloud. - The Genesys agent must receive the caller’s details in real time, including: - Caller Name & Phone Number - Reason for Calling (AI-processed intent) - Summary of the AI Conversation - Any transcriptions or relevant data Integration Options We Are Exploring: Since SIP is unavailable, we are considering two alternatives: 1. API-Based Call Handoff: - VAPI manages the call, then sends caller details via API to Genesys Cloud. - Genesys Cloud places an outbound call to the customer, ensuring the agent receives AI-collected data. 2. Using Twilio as a Middle Layer: - Calls first route through Twilio, allowing AI to handle them in VAPI. - If human support is needed, Twilio forwards the live call to Genesys Cloud. - VAPI still sends real-time data to Genesys Cloud before the transfer. Questions for VAPI Support: 1. What is the best approach for transferring calls while preserving caller information? 2. Does VAPI support real-time API-based data transfer to Genesys Cloud? 3. If we use Twilio for call routing, can VAPI still send conversation data to Genesys Cloud? 4. Is there an estimated timeline for SIP trunking availability? Thanks!
Hi. Im not from VAPI team, but i think that solves your issues.
For transfering data you should go through SIP Headers

Hey FausSR, SIP Trunking is available and you can check it about from here Note: While these guides use Twilio as an example, the process remains consistent across other telephony providers.
I suggest configuring SIP Trunking first and then getting into call forwarding.
Thanks @rocha, for helping @faussr.
1. What is the best approach for transferring calls while preserving caller information? The best approach is to use a
TransferDestinationSip
with
blind-transfer-add-summary-to-sip-header
mode, which allows you to: \- Transfer the call using SIP REFER \- Include conversation summary in SIP headers \- Pass custom headers with additional context Example implementation: const transferDestination = { type: 'sip', sipUri: 'sip:[genesys@your-domain.com](genesys@your-domain.com)', transferPlan: { mode: 'blind-transfer-add-summary-to-sip-header', summaryPlan: { // Configure how the summary should be generated } }, sipHeaders: { 'X-Caller-Intent': 'policy_inquiry', 'X-Caller-Details': JSON.stringify({ name: [customer.name](http://customer.name), policy: customer.policyNumber }) } }; 2. Does VAPI support real-time API-based data transfer to Genesys Cloud? Yes, VAPI provides real-time data transfer capabilities through: \- Real-time status updates during transfer \- Conversation transcripts 3. If we use Twilio for call routing, can VAPI still send conversation data to Genesys Cloud? Can you explain more on this? 4. Is there an estimated timeline for SIP trunking availability? SIP Trunking is already available.
