Lambda Setup

Lambda Directory and Code

Create a local directory with this index.mjs file inside. Later, this will be the Lambda zip folder that's uploaded.
If needed, change the a_number and b_number variables in the code to correspond to the payload from your input source.

// index.mjs

import axios from 'axios';

export const handler = async (event) => {
  var aNumber = event.Details.ContactData.SystemEndpoint.Address // Phone number making the call.
  var bNumber = event.Details.ContactData.CustomerEndpoint.Address // Phone number being called.

  
  // For your logging processes.
  console.log("aNumber: " + aNumber); 
  
  // Makes the pre-call push.
  var precall = await pushPrecall(aNumber,bNumber);
  console.log("Pre-call Status: " +precall.statusCode)
  console.log("Pre-call Message: " +precall.body)
  
  return precall;

Lambda Code Libraries

This Lambda requires the axios library to be included in the Lambda directory. Here is a method to include that library.

Navigate to the directory containing the index.mjs file.
Open this directory in a terminal and run the following. This should create the necessary library folders.
```
npm install axios
```
Compress/ZIP those folders with the lambda code from inside the folder. This will be uploaded to the Lambda

Lambda Creation

1. Create the Lambda

Environment Information

Function Runtime: NodeJS 20.x
Architecture: x86_64

2. Upload Lambda Zip

This is the compressed folder from above

3. Add API Keys to Lambda Environment Variables

Using the Lambda

Change the a_number and b_number variables in the code to correspond to the payload from your input source.

// index.mjs

export const handler = async (event) => {
  var aNumber = event.Details.ContactData.SystemEndpoint.Address // Phone number making the call.
  var bNumber = event.Details.ContactData.CustomerEndpoint.Address // Phone number being called.
...

// index.mjs

...
export const handler = async (event) => {
	var a_number = "+15555555555" // Phone number making the call.
  var b_number = "+15554444444"
