I am setting up a Twilio Flex acct and am wanting when a caller calls and lets say says or presses # 2 I want to ultimately take the callers phone number from the caller id and do a post to an external webpage. I am looking for documentation on this. Anyone have any suggestions?
The Twilio Studio flow I am having issues with it
Twilio developer evangelist here.
By default, incoming calls to a Flex number are directed through a Twilio Studio flow. The default flow passes the caller straight through to get assigned to an agent in Flex, but you can add other widgets to ask for input or direct the call any way you want.
One of the available Studio widgets is the Make HTTP Request widget which allows you to make an HTTP request to a URL of your choice. You can add data to the body of the request using the widget. To get the phone number of the caller you can use the variables set by the inbound trigger. In the case of the phone number of the caller, you need {{trigger.call.From}}.
