Create Bridge

Create a new telephony bridge for call routing. Bridges are the core routing entities that link telephony providers and phone numbers to your Voice AI agents.
Prerequisites: Make sure you have your API Token and Org-Handle ready. See Authentication for details.

Code Examples

const axios = require('axios');

const headers = {
  'Authorization': 'Token your-api-token',
  'Org-Handle': 'your-org-handle',
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
};

// Create a new telephony bridge
const createBridge = async (name, slug) => {
  const response = await axios.post(
    'https://unpod.ai/api/v2/platform/telephony/bridges/',
    { name, slug },
    { headers }
  );
  console.log(`Bridge created: ${response.data.data.slug} (ID: ${response.data.data.id})`);
  return response.data.data;
};

// Example usage
createBridge('Sales Bridge', 'sales-bridge-001');

​
Best Practices

  1. Slug Naming: Use descriptive, lowercase slugs (e.g., sales-outbound-us) to easily identify bridges
  2. Unique Slugs: Ensure slugs are unique across your organization to avoid conflicts
  3. Post-Creation: After creating a bridge, use Connect Provider to Bridge to link a telephony provider
  4. Bridge ID: Store the returned id and slug for subsequent bridge management operations
  5. Error Handling: Handle 409 Conflict responses for duplicate slugs
  6. Security: Keep API tokens secure and rotate them regularly
