Thanks for sharing the caller ID. To help troubleshoot, could you specify which tool you tried to call and what variables you passed from the previous node? This will help identify if the issue is with variable mapping or tool configuration.

Ensure the variables are correctly stored, and match the tool’s parameter names, the assistant is instructed to invoke the tool, the tool is enabled in settings, and dynamic variables if used are passed via assistantOverrides.
t
they're stored infact i call them after each node for the same purpose just to confirm i am not missing anything

To help troubleshoot further, could you please specify the exact tool you tried to call and the variable names you passed from the previous node? This will help identify if the issue is with variable mapping or tool configuration. For reference, please ensure that variable names match the tool’s expected parameters and that the tool is enabled in your workflow settings ([Vapi Workflows Documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows)).

Looking into it
v
Suggestion: Double-check that the variable names you pass from previous nodes exactly match the parameter names expected by the
slotfinder
tool. For example, if your tool expects a parameter called
date
, ensure your previous node outputs a variable named
date
(not
selected_date
or similar):
Copy code
json
{
  "tool": "slotfinder",
  "parameters": {
    "date": "{{date}}"
  }
}
If the names do not match, the tool call will not work as expected. See: [Vapi Workflows Documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows) Sources: - [Vapi Workflows Documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows) - [API Request Node](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows/nodes/api-request)

To help resolve the issue: Could you please share the exact variable names you are passing to the
slotfinder
tool, and confirm if they match the parameter names expected by the tool (e.g.,
date
)? This will help identify if the problem is due to variable mapping or workflow configuration. For reference, variable names must match exactly for the tool call to work as expected ([Vapi Workflows Documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/workflows)).
