Integrate Phone Calls and SMS with OpenAI

Full workflow here https://developer.vonage.com/en/blog/integrate-phone-calls-and-sms-with-openai

We've already developed a starter Vonage Voice application to receive a call, catch your response, and send it to a 3rd party (OpenAI). Users can deploy the App using Github Codespaces. Fork this repository. Open it in Codespaces by clicking "Create codespace on main"

Create a new Vonage app

In the left menu here, click API Settings, left menu item.

Copy and paste in the .env file API key and API Secret

API_KEY=b**********
API_SECRET=******************

OpenAI API

After registering and confirming your phone number, you need to generate your API key.

With this API key, we can move forward.

Paste it to your .env file

API_KEY=b**********
API_SECRET=******************
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-**************************************

Deploy Our App in Codespace

Open GitHub Codespace in your fork.

In the Codespace terminal, run the following command to install our Node packages:

npm install

Run the following command in the terminal to receive the GitHub Codespace URL for webhooks

echo "https://${CODESPACE_NAME}-3000.preview.app.github.dev/webhooks/asr" 

Copy and paste the output in EVENT_URL= in the .env file

API_KEY=b**********
API_SECRET=******************
OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-**************************************
EVENT_URL=https://******************************************-3000.preview.app.github.dev/webhooks/asr

You will need to provide an answer URL for the application you create that corresponds to the answer route provided in the .env file. The answer URL needs to be an externally accessible URL that ends with /webhooks/answer. For example, if your URL was example.com, then your answer URL would be http://example.com/webhooks/answer.

Update App settings using Dashboard. Go to Application in the left menu. Choose a related app and click the 'Edit' button

Run the App

node index.js

In the terminal, open the Port tab. Click on Private in the Visibility column, and change it to Public.
