Call Legs

📘 Looking for live/real-time queue, agent or call-level data? See Work Analytics — Overview.

📘 Updated Endpoint

The Call Legs and Call Detail Records are dedicated endpoints to replace the previous Call Detail Record Legs endpoint which served both purposes

📘

Note: This API provides access to data from the past 2 years only in accordance with Analytics for Work data compliance policies; queries spanning more than 2 years will return only the most recent 2 years of data, and queries outside this range will return no results

Call Legs Explained

A Call Record is a single record view of the overall call and metrics represented by a single Call ID.

A Call Leg provides detailed metrics on an individual segment of a call within the call journey and is represented by a Call Leg ID combined with a Call ID.

Example: A Call Record would be a single row representation of a call that follows the following path which would have multiple Call Legs to fully represent the journey.

Inbound to an Auto Attendant
Transferred to Ring Group
Simultaneous calls to 5 Ring Group members (Leg per member contacted regardless of outcome)
Answered by one of the members

8x8 Work Analytics Historical access is via this multi step process. For any of the endpoints the same process is followed.

📘 You will need a working API key to begin

You can generate API credentials from How to get API Keys

The 8x8-api-key will be the Key generated. For Work Analytics the Secret from Admin Console is not required.

Use the following base URL during this process:

scrollId	☐/✓	Not required for initial page required on subsequent pages. See Pagination
isConnectTime	☐	This parameter allows you to get your results based on either connect time or disconnect time of each call leg. Default is false. See isConnectTime explained for more details.	false
isSimplified	☐	Only valid for Call Legs. Default is false. When true: Child calls are not returned. For example, child calls are the ones the service makes to one or more agents when a call comes into a call queue or a ring group. Some call legs are omitted. For example, the removal of CallForking and CallRecording legs.	false

isConnectTime explained

This looks at the timing of call legs and as such is not valid for call records

if false will use 'disconnected_time' of the call leg to filter data and return the result

if true will use the 'connected_time' of the call leg to filter data and return the result

disconnected_time is when the call leg was disconnected from the system

connected_time is when the call leg transitioned from alerting to connected.

👍 Follow the pagination steps below to retrieve subsequent pages.

Pagination

Within Work Analytics Only the /call-records and /call-legs endpoints are subject to pagination.

This is controlled by pageSize and scrollId

pageSize is the number of records to return per page and is required for /call-legs
scrollId is returned from /call-legs requests providing an id for the next page of results.

Pagination Example

Assuming there will be 81 records in total. With an initial input of pageSize=50 the returned meta data will be as follows.

Note: data has been truncated to an empty array to limit the size of the example text

{
    
    "meta": {
        "totalRecordCount": 81,
        "scrollId": "c3VwZXJ0ZW5hbnRjc21fMTYzNTU3MTA0ODQ4Nl8xXzE2NDM5MTIzNTI0NDE"
    },
    "data": [
    ]
}

The request for the next page would include scrollId set as the value returned in the previous request pageKey=50&scrollId=c3VwZXJ0ZW5hbnRjc21fMTYzNTU3MTA0ODQ4Nl8xXzE2NDM5MTIzNTI0NDE

The new result set would look as follows. The returned result set would only have 31 elements.

{
    "meta": {
        "totalRecordCount": 81,
        "scrollId": "c3VwZXJ0ZW5hbnRjc21fMTYzNTU3MTA0ODM0NV8xXzE2NDM4OTc0OTI5MDM"
    },
    "data": [
    ]
}

The request for the next page would be pageKey=50&scrollId=c3VwZXJ0ZW5hbnRjc21fMTYzNTU3MTA0ODM0NV8xXzE2NDM4OTc0OTI5MDM the scrollId has been set to the value returned in the previous request

{
    "meta": {
        "totalRecordCount": 0,
        "scrollId": "No Data"
    },
    "data": []
}
