FreeClimbAPI/Ruby-Voice-Quickstart

Ruby Voice Quickstart

This quickstart serves as a guide to get your first Voice application up and running with FreeClimb.

Specifically, the project will:

• Receive an incoming call via a FreeClimb application
• Respond with a PerCL command to say 'Hello World!' to caller

Tutorial

We offer a Ruby Voice Quickstart Tutorial for more detailed set-up instructions and explanation of how FreeClimb works.

Requirements

• A FreeClimb account

• A registered application with a named alias

• A configured FreeClimb number assigned to your application

• Trial accounts: a verified number

Tools:

• Ruby
• ngrok (recommended for hosting)

1. Install the required packages

   bundle install

2. Configure environment variables:

   ENV VARIABLE	DESCRIPTION
   ACCOUNT_ID	Account ID which can be found under API credentials in dashboard.
   API_KEY	API key which can be found under API credentials in dashboard.

3. Configure your applications's endpoints by adding a publicly accessible URL (we recommend an ngrok URL) and the route reference /incomingCall to your App Config's VoiceURL:
