Time limit Web Call

I'm building a voice agent that needs to be aware of the call duration time limit. Ideally, the agent should inform the user during the conversation that the time limit is approaching, and then naturally begin wrapping up while maintaining a smooth and coherent conversation flow. The time limit is dynamic—it could be 15 minutes, 30 minutes, etc. I attempted to use

vapi.send

with a message type of system to handle this, but it caused issues. The agent started repeating itself and seemed to enter a corrupted or broken state. I also considered using

vapi.say

, but that doesn't quite fit, since I don't want the agent to blurt something out abruptly or break the conversational context. For reference, I'm using the @Vapi-ai/web SDK version 2.2.5 and dynamically generating agents per conversation. Additionally, even if the call slightly exceeds the set time limit, I’d like the agent to clearly communicate that the call is coming to an end, rather than just abruptly hanging up. How do I implement this use case?

Hi there! 👋 I wasn't able to find specific information about the @Vapi-ai/web SDK version 2.2.5. However, I can definitely help with strategies for handling call duration time limits in your voice agent! ## Setting Up Time Limits First, you can set maximum call durations using the API. According to [information I found](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1343732017426071653), you can use a curl request to set this:

Copy code

curl -X PATCH 'https://api.vapi.ai/assistant/{ASSISTANT_ID}' \
-H 'Authorization: Bearer {YOUR_API_TOKEN}' \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{
  "maxDurationSeconds": 1800
}'

## Informing Users About Time Limits To maintain a smooth conversation when approaching the time limit: 1. **Use Effective Prompting**: According to the [prompting guide](https://docs.vapi.ai/prompting-guide), structure your prompts with clear sections for identity, style, response guidelines, and goals. This helps the agent maintain context when it needs to introduce time-related information. 2. **Add Natural Speech Patterns**: Incorporate natural speech elements like hesitations and pauses to make the time limit warning feel more conversational. For example, use fillers like "uh," "um," or "well" when mentioning the time. 3. **Implement Context Management**: [Information shows](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1344181455567196170) you should maintain a running list of collected information and store current progress. This ensures the agent can smoothly return to the conversation after mentioning the time limit. ## Gracefully Ending the Call For a smooth wrap-up when the time limit approaches:

1. **Track Conversation Progress**: According to [documentation I found](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1336004944150401166), implement logic that keeps track of the conversation's progress and checks against predefined goals. Once the system detects that the time limit is approaching, it can begin the wrap-up process. 2. **Use the

say

Method Properly**: When it's time to end the call, use the

say

method with the

endCallAfterSpoken

parameter set to

true

to gracefully end the call. 3. **Adjust Conversation Flow**: [Information indicates](https://discord.com/channels/1211482211119796234/1211483291191083018/threads/1335054553250533439) you should adjust the conversation flow in your VAPI script, incorporating conditions and branching to handle different scenarios based on the remaining time.

I'm sorry, I'm having trouble with your request. A member of the team will be notified and will get back to you as soon as possible.

@godlike You need to calculate the time on your server or client-side. When the time approaches or reaches the threshold, using the control URLs of control methods, you should either voice out a message or send a message of a specific role system so that the assistant can take an action accordingly. As you have already mentioned that you have done this, the same approach, but it's leading to 1K and 2K results. I would like you to write down the approach you have followed till now and the process and the failure so that I can understand okay this we have tried out and from where it start breaking and this should be the next steps to resolve it

Hey Godlike, a gentle reminder to continue this thread

@Shubham Bajaj After getting inputs from @User I tried implementing below approach:

Copy code

jsx
if (elapsedTime >= 30 && isUserSpeaking && !warningMessageSent) {
send({
  type: "add-message",
  message: {
  content: `IMPORTANT - DONT IGNORE THIS - Please incorporate a brief note about time running low in your next response, but do NOT break continuity. Keep the conversation flowing, then add something like 'By the way, we've got about 2 minutes left, so let's keep it short' or something like this, near the end of your response. FYI - Time is almost up. Please keep further questions minimal and proceed to finalize the call soon.`,
  role: "assistant",
},
});

send({
  type: "add-message",
  message: {
    role: "user",
    content: "IMPORTANT - DONT IGNORE THIS - We’re running short on time. Let’s wrap up soon. If there's anything else I need to address, please let me know.",
},
});

setWarningMessageSent(true);
}

but its not working as expected. The agent sometimes does calls out that we've limited time left, however, rest of the times it totally forgets about the time limits and just keeps on going

The logic is on your end, not on the assistant or agent side, so you have to calculate it so that the send message gets played out at the right time. You have to figure out what's going wrong on your side - is it an issue with the timers or something else? If you think it is because of VAPI, do share the code. I'll review and let you know.
