curl -X GET "https://api.vapi.ai/call/{call_id}" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
2. Check `endedReason`**:** Look for the endedReason in the API response.
- "assistant-forwarded-call" indicates successful initiation. If the call still drops after this, it often points to telephony provider issues.
- Any other endedReason suggests a potential configuration issue.
3. Assistant Configuration: Ensure the serverMessages in your assistant's configuration doesn't include "phone-call-control" unless you have custom call logic, and phoneCallProviderBypassEnabled is false for Vapi-managed transfers.
4. Verify Call Logs with Provider: If the Vapi call shows it forwarded successfully, inspect call logs at your telephony provider (like Twilio, Vonage, or Telnyx) for errors using the phoneCallProviderId.
5. SIP-Based Issues: If applicable, use Wireshark to check SIP packets:
- Filter for "REFER" packets to confirm whether the transfer request was sent.
- Look for any error responses from the SIP provider in response to the REFER packet.
6. Check the Destination Number: Ensure the destination number has the correct format, includes the country code, and is capable of receiving calls without blocks.
If setup issues persist, review these resources:
- [Debugging Call Forwarding Drops](https://docs.vapi.ai/phone-calling/transfer-calls/debug-forwarding-drops)
- [Call Ended Reasons](https://docs.vapi.ai/calls/call-ended-reason)
This should help you identify and resolve the issue with your call forwarding setup.
