Building Agents
Call Transfer
When a caller needs a human, the agent transfers the live call to a number you configure.
How it works
- Add the
transfer_calltool to the agent with a destination number. - Describe in the prompt when to transfer (e.g. "if the caller asks for a senior advisor").
- The agent dials the human and connects the caller.
- The post-transfer conversation is still transcribed and attached to the same call record; extra minutes are billed once.
Use a real, answerable transfer number. A placeholder will connect and immediately drop.
