Yeah you can use the dtmf() tool to send keypad tones during calls, and add responseDelaySeconds to ensure proper timing when navigating IVR menus..

Thanks for your answer! So you just activate the dialpad function and then you just put this on the prompt? Is there a special way to write it?

Yes, just enable the dtmf tool in your Vapi.ai setup, then use dtmf("1234", { responseDelaySeconds: 2 }) in the prompt to send tones with optional delays..

Sorry but i think a JSON cannot be put in the prompt. Did you use jsons on your prompt?
