I'm triggering calls using a squadId. However, if I use assistantOverrides in the payload, these don't seem to be used in any of the assistants of the squad, and there's no squadOverrides field either. Is there a way around this? I want to use variables in the prompts of each of the assistants. I also want to avoid having to build an entirely new squad dynamically for each call. Thanks!

To utilize member overrides with the transient squad feature, you must retrieve your squad configuration immediately prior to the call. Subsequently, pass the membersOverrides as a parameter. Please note that membersOverrides are not currently supported with the squadID. Here's how to work around the squadId limitation with member overrides: 1\. First, fetch your squad configuration 2\. Create a transient squad with the same configuration plus your overrides 3\. Use that transient squad in your call Here's an example:

// 1. Get your squad configuration
const squad = {...squadConfig}

// 2. Create transient squad configuration with overrides
const callPayload = {
  squad: {
    ...squad,
    membersOverrides: {
      variableValues: {
        customer_name: "John",
        product_type: "Premium"
      }
    }
  }
};
// 3. Make the call with the transient squad
// use create call API or SDK

class Squad {
  /**
   * This is the name of the squad.
   */
  name?: string;
/**This is the list of assistants that make up the squad.The call will start with the first assistant in the list.
*/
members: SquadMemberDTO[];/**This can be used to override all the assistants' settings and provide values for their template variables.Both membersOverrides and members[n].assistantOverrides can be used together. First, members[n].assistantOverrides is applied. Then, membersOverrides is applied as a global override.
*/
membersOverrides?: AssistantOverrides;
}

Hello, I was having similar issue. So in the scenario where I want to update the assistants before the call I always need to create a transient one? Can't I just override the squad setting before the call starts? For example I want to pass variables to both assistant, variables are given right before starting the call (there is a form before that fetch data). I would need a "base squad" I retrieve this squad I do modification and create a new "modified_squad" I start the call with this "modified_squad" Is it correct? Is it the only way or the best one?

@giorgior27 instead of fetch and creating transient squad if

membersOverrides

works, you can make use of it.
