Agent Stream
Stream audio to a Talkr agent over a WebSocket
Overview
Agent Stream is a WebSocket endpoint that lets a telephony provider point its media stream at a single URL and drive a Talkr agent run. The agent UUID in the URL selects the agent, and the provider path segment selects the streaming protocol. Provider-specific identifiers come from the stream protocol itself. For Cloudonix, Talkr reads the domain from the start.accountSid field, then uses the matching stored telephony configuration to validate the session and issue provider API calls (hangup, transfer) during the call.
This is useful when:
- You're integrating Talkr into a SIP gateway or in-house dialer that already speaks a supported provider's streaming protocol
- You want one stable endpoint per agent rather than wiring up an inbound webhook per phone number
Agent Stream currently supports the Cloudonix provider only. Other providers
return NotImplementedError until a per-provider implementation lands. If you
need Twilio, Plivo, Telnyx, Vonage, ARI, or another provider, contact your
Talkr admin with your use case.
Endpoint
wss://talkr.intelstacks.com/api/v1/agent-stream/{provider}/{agent_uuid}{provider} is the registered provider name, currently cloudonix. {agent_uuid} is the agent's stable UUID (see Get the Agent UUID below). On self-hosted deployments, replace talkr.intelstacks.com with your backend host.
Prerequisites
- A Talkr agent (workflow) — published or in draft is fine
- A Cloudonix telephony configuration in your Talkr organization whose
domain_idmatches theaccountSidCloudonix sends in the streamstartmessage. Talkr uses the bearer token from this configuration to validate the call session and to issue provider API calls (hangup, transfer).
Get the Agent UUID
The Agent UUID is the workflow's stable identifier — it doesn't change when versions are published.
To find and copy it in the UI, see Agent UUID.
Connect to the WebSocket
Path parameters
| Param | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
provider | Yes | Provider name. Currently only cloudonix is supported. |
agent_uuid | Yes | Stable UUID of the Talkr agent to run. |
Cloudonix example
wss://talkr.intelstacks.com/api/v1/agent-stream/cloudonix/{agent_uuid}Use this URL inside the CXML <Stream> your Cloudonix Voice Application returns when the call needs to be bridged to the Talkr agent:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Response>
<Connect>
<Stream url="wss://talkr.intelstacks.com/api/v1/agent-stream/cloudonix/{agent_uuid}"/>
</Connect>
<Pause length="40"/>
</Response>The first two messages on the socket should be Cloudonix's standard connected and start events (Twilio-compatible framing). Talkr extracts streamSid, callSid, session, accountSid, from, to, context, tracks, and mediaFormat from the start event payload. It validates the session against Cloudonix using the bearer token from the stored telephony configuration matched by accountSid, then begins streaming audio.
Workflow run lifecycle
When the WebSocket is accepted, Talkr:
- Looks up the workflow by
agent_uuid - Runs a quota check against the workflow's owning user
- Creates a new
WorkflowRun(call_type=inbound,mode=cloudonix, nameWR-AGS-XXXXXXXX) - Transitions the run to
running - Reads and validates the Cloudonix
startmessage, then stamps thefrom/tonumbers oninitial_context, storessessionascall_idongathered_context, and recordsaccountSidunder the run'sinbound_webhooklog - Starts the agent pipeline
The run is visible under the agent's Runs tab as soon as it's minted, just like an inbound or outbound call.
Close codes
| Code | Reason |
|---|---|
1008 | Routing failure — unknown provider, workflow not found, or quota exceeded |
1011 | Server-side failure or unsupported provider for Agent Stream |
4400 | Provider-level handshake error — for cloudonix, missing start.accountSid, no matching telephony configuration, missing bearer token on the configuration, malformed connected/start events, or session validation failed against Cloudonix |
Security notes
- Treat the URL as a secret — the agent UUID itself authorizes the connection. Store and transmit it only over TLS, and avoid logging the raw URL in places where access is broader than your operations team.
- No bearer tokens or provider secrets are passed in the URL. Provider credentials live in the stored telephony configuration (matched by
start.accountSidfor Cloudonix) and are used server-side by Talkr to validate the session and issue provider API calls.
