Hello ,

We are new to RingCentral. We are trying to get incoming call information with the extension the call is answered immediately (real time). We need a push notification or a trigger. That sends information to a particular URL.

How can we achieve this? We use .Net .

If it can be achieved through webhook. Where can I find a sample to create a webhook.

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

To get real-time, incoming call information, you should make a subscription with the presence event filter:

/restapi/v1.0/account/~/extension/~/presence?detailedTelephonyState=true

You can get more information on this here:

https://developer.ringcentral.com/api-docs/latest/index.html#!#RefNotifications.html

For C#, we have a PubNub subscription example:

For webhooks, we have some examples in JS and PHP:

* JS: https://github.com/grokify/ringcentral-demos-webhooks
* PHP (via Botman): https://github.com/ringcentral/glip-botman/blob/master/index.php

Try it out in C#.
