Using Twilio AMD with outbound calls from native Programmable Voice SDK

Question

I'm using a the Twilio Programmable Voice SDK to initiate calls from my native apps. I want to be able to use answering machine detection on those calls, but I've struggled to figure out how to accomplish it.

I know AMD can't be initiated through TwiML, but can it also not be initiated through Twilio Programmable SDK?

How do I enable async AMD on calls initiated through a native app with Programmable Voice SDK?

Answer 1

You can pass parameter "machineDetection" => "Enable" to detect if the call is received by Answering Machine. Twilio SDK helps you in answering machine detection.

It returns AnsweredBy value as soon as it identifies the called party.
