Noise suppression tutorial

In this tutorial, you'll learn how to enable noise suppression for the Voice API and TeXML calls.

Voice API

The noise suppression can be enabled for the Voice API calls in the following way:

    curl --request POST \
--url https://api.telnyx.com/v2/calls/${call_control_id}/actions/suppression_start \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer ${API_KEY} \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{
"direction": "inbound"
}'

The only parameter required for the request is direction which can have one of the following options: inbound | outbound | both.

Please be aware that the charge is applied for each direction separately.

The noise suppression can be stopped at any time in the following way:

    curl --request POST \
--url https://api.telnyx.com/v2/calls/${call_control_id}/actions/suppression_stop \
--header 'Accept: application/json' \
--header 'Authorization: Bearer ${API_KEY} \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data '{}'

TeXML

In TeXML there is a dedicated verb for enabling the noise suppression on the call.

<Response>
<Start>
<Suppression direction="inbound"/>
</Start>
...
<Stop>
<Suppression/>
</Stop>
</Response>
