KallyAI API Integration

KallyAI is an AI phone assistant that makes calls to businesses on behalf of users.

Complete Workflow

When a user asks to make a call:

Step 1: Gather Call Details

Collect from user:

• Phone number to call (required)
• What to accomplish - the task description (required)
• Category: restaurant, clinic, hotel, or general (required)
• For reservations: name, date, time, party size

Step 2: Authenticate User

Use the CLI OAuth flow:

https://api.kallyai.com/v1/auth/cli?redirect_uri=http://localhost:8976/callback

This opens a login page. After authentication, the user is redirected to the localhost callback with tokens:

http://localhost:8976/callback?access_token=<token>&refresh_token=<refresh>&expires_in=3600

Start a local HTTP server to capture the callback and extract the tokens.

Step 3: Make the Call

Once authenticated, call the API:

POST https://api.kallyai.com/v1/calls
Authorization: Bearer <access_token>
Content-Type: application/json

{
  "submission": {
    "task_category": "general",
    "task_description": "Ask about store hours and availability",
    "respondent_phone": "+15551234567",
    "language": "en",
    "call_language": "en"
  },
  "timezone": "America/New_York"
}

Step 4: Report Results

Response contains:

{
  "call_id": "uuid",
  "status": "success",
  "highlights": "They have iPhone 15 for €800, good condition",
  "next_steps": "Call back to arrange pickup"
}

Status values: success, no_answer, busy, failed, voicemail, cancelled
