The "No Assistant Assigned" message usually means your call did not have an assistant assigned, either because the
assistantId
was not set or your server did not respond with an assistant when Vapi requested it.
To fix this, ensure your server endpoint responds to Vapi's
assistant-request
webhook with a valid assistant ID. For example:
Copy code
js
app.post("/api/assistant-selector", async (req, res) => {
  if (req.body.message?.type === "assistant-request") {
    res.json({ assistantId: "your-assistant-id" });
  }
});
Make sure your endpoint is reachable and responds within 7.5 seconds.

Thanks for sharing the details. To help narrow down the issue, could you confirm if you have set a Server URL at the account, phone number, or assistant level in your Vapi dashboard, and if it is correctly responding to assistant requests? This will help determine why calls are showing as "No Assistant Assigned."

Also I am using the google calendar tool through which i am scheduling appointments , but the date is going good but time is getting incorrect.

To fix the incorrect time issue, make sure you are explicitly setting the
timeZone
field when creating events with the Google Calendar tool
. For example:
Copy code
json
{
  "summary": "Meeting",
  "startDateTime": "2025-05-30T10:00:00",
  "endDateTime": "2025-05-30T10:30:00",
  "timeZone": "America/New_York"
}
Always use ISO 8601 format for dates and specify the correct time zone to ensure accurate scheduling. [See best practices here.](https://docs.vapi.ai/tools/google-calendar#best-practices) Source: - [Google Calendar Integration – Best Practices](https://docs.vapi.ai/tools/google-calendar#best-practices)
To fix incorrect times when scheduling with the Google Calendar tool, always set the
timeZone
field explicitly in your event payload.
For example:
Copy code
json
{
  "summary": "Appointment",
  "startDateTime": "2025-05-27T14:00:00",
  "endDateTime": "2025-05-27T14:30:00",
  "timeZone": "Asia/Kolkata"
}
Make sure your
startDateTime
and
endDateTime
are in ISO 8601 format and the
timeZone
matches your local time.
This should resolve most time mismatch issues when creating events in Google Calendar. Source: - [Vapi Google Calendar Tool Documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/tools/google-calendar#tool-configurations)

checking if this is resolved/solved for you?

Could you send the call id and the configuration for making these calls? We would like to know how these calls are being initiated if they are web calls
