Telnyx Voice Advanced - Go

Installation

go get github.com/team-telnyx/telnyx-go

Setup

import (
  "context"
  "fmt"
  "os"

  "github.com/team-telnyx/telnyx-go"
  "github.com/team-telnyx/telnyx-go/option"
)

client := telnyx.NewClient(
  option.WithAPIKey(os.Getenv("TELNYX_API_KEY")),
)

All examples below assume client is already initialized as shown above.

Error Handling

All API calls can fail with network errors, rate limits (429), validation errors (422), or authentication errors (401). Always handle errors in production code:

import "errors"

result, err := client.Messages.Send(ctx, params)
if err != nil {
  var apiErr *telnyx.Error
  if errors.As(err, &apiErr) {
    switch apiErr.StatusCode {
    case 422:
      fmt.Println("Validation error — check required fields and formats")
    case 429:
      // Rate limited — wait and retry with exponential backoff
      fmt.Println("Rate limited, retrying...")
    default:
      fmt.Printf("API error %d: %s\n", apiErr.StatusCode, apiErr.Error())
    }
  } else {
    fmt.Println("Network error — check connectivity and retry")
  }
}

Common error codes: 401 invalid API key, 403 insufficient permissions, 404 resource not found, 422 validation error (check field formats), 429 rate limited (retry with exponential backoff).

Join AI Assistant Conversation

Add a participant to an existing AI assistant conversation. Use this command to bring an additional call leg into a running AI conversation.

POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/ai_assistant_join — Required: conversation_id, participant

Optional: client_state (string), command_id (string)

	response, err := client.Calls.Actions.JoinAIAssistant(
		context.Background(),
		"call_control_id",
		telnyx.CallActionJoinAIAssistantParams{
			ConversationID: "v3:abc123",
			Participant: telnyx.CallActionJoinAIAssistantParamsParticipant{
				ID:   "v3:abc123def456",
				Role: "user",
			},
		},
	)
	if err != nil {
		log.Fatal(err)
	}
	fmt.Printf("%+v\n", response.Data)
