Call Summary Resource


A Call Summary provides an overview of

  • metadata, and
  • quality metrics

for a single call.

Using the Call Summary Resource, you can get a single summary for a specific Call.

To get a list of Call Summaries for multiple calls use the Call Summaries Resource.

(warning)

Warning

Voice Insights Advanced Features must be active to use this API Resource.

(information)

Info

A completed Call Summary may take up to a half hour to generate, but a partial summary record will be available within ten minutes of a call ending.


Call Summary properties

call-summary-properties page anchor

The following table contains the top-level properties of a single Call Summary instance.

A Call Summary is a complex data structure with several of the top-level properties constituting nested objects.

The top level contains attributes and properties objects, and each edge of a call has metrics for both directions of the media stream as well as properties and summarized metrics. Further information for these object-typed properties can be found on the Details: Call Summary page.

Whether a particular edge is present will depend on the call type. A Voice SDK call will have an sdk_edge and a client_edge. A SIP trunking call will have a sip_edge and a carrier_edge. A SIP domain or <Dial><Sip> call will have only a sip_edge. A PSTN call will have only a carrier_edge. See Understanding Twilio Media Edges for a conceptual explanation.
