POST/api/v1/voice/call-control/hangup

Before you start

Confirm the call_control_id identifies the call you intend to end.

Result

Read the result and final call status.

Charges and safe retries

This ends a real call. Retrieve its final history after completion rather than issuing more control actions.

Authentication

Send your account API key in the X-Api-Key header. Keep it on your server; never embed it in browser code.

Request examples

Replace the example values with your own inputs. Examples do not run on this page. Production requests can change your account or incur charges.

  • call_control_id: Control session reference returned by Create or Answer; use it for subsequent live actions.
  • message: Customer-facing explanation of the result.

HTTP responses

Expand a status to inspect its documented response format and examples. Example prices, IDs and timestamps are illustrative values, not quotes or account records.
