You can't connect directly to those APIs using the Twilio API. However, you could connect to a conference call for one of those platforms if they make available a phone number that you can dial into.

  • can i use SIP feature of twilio to achieve it. ? – Light yagami Aug 09 '17 at 14:57
  • I don't know, do they expose a SIP address that you can make calls to to join conference calls? – philnash Aug 10 '17 at 10:24
  • yes they provide SIP address , and if i have the SIP address how to i connect can you just tell me in breif? – Light yagami Aug 11 '17 at 01:17
  • Sure! You can connect a Twilio call to a SIP address using the [`` TwiML](https://www.twilio.com/docs/api/twiml/sip). In brief, you return a response to a Twilio webhook with `SIP_ADDRESS`. – philnash Aug 11 '17 at 08:11
  • thank you so much philnash for your responses , there is a lot of clarity now using twilio and also philnash for using SIP also i require a twilio number ? – Light yagami Aug 12 '17 at 08:50
  • You will likely need a number to either receive calls on and forward them or to make outgoing calls from that are then connected on to the conference. – philnash Aug 12 '17 at 08:54
  • Transfer recording per minute where the function is written in aws lambda, to aws S3 from twilio recording logs on the time the call is going on, not when the call has ended . Is it Possible ? – Light yagami Aug 12 '17 at 08:58
  • No, if you're recording it, you receive the full recording at the end of the call. – philnash Aug 12 '17 at 08:59
  • that means twilio will only show the recorded data in the recording logs when the current call hangs up . Can websocket help me tweak something in twilio to acheive this feature, because that is a feature i needed that would help my application vastly – Light yagami Aug 12 '17 at 09:02
  • The only way you could achieve this with Twilio, that I know of, is to make the Twilio side of the call a conference as well and generate a call once a minute that dials into the Twilio conference to record it and then hang up after a minute to be replaced by a new call. That way you can get recordings by the minute, you just have to do the work to make that happen. – philnash Aug 14 '17 at 08:57
