Crossbar cdrs was extended to provide simplified interaction call detail records. It groups all CDRs that interacted with each other to form a list of calls.

GET /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/cdrs/legs/{INTERACTION_ID}

curl -v -X GET \
    -H "X-Auth-Token: {AUTH_TOKEN}" \
    http://{SERVER}:{PORT}/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/cdrs/legs/{INTERACTION_ID}

Variations

You can select CDRs/interactions for a specific user by adding them to the URI:

GET /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/users/{USER_ID}/cdrs

Notes on fields

Some fields need a little more explanation to help you understand what they are telling you about the call leg.

  • call_direction – direction of the leg, relative to the media switch
    • inbound – leg came into the media switch (typically the A-leg)
    • outbound – leg started on the media switch (typically the B-leg)
  • hangup_cause – The reason why the call leg ended. See the FreeSWITCH Hangup Causes page for descriptions.
  • billing_seconds – How many seconds of the call are billable (post answer, normally)
  • to – Depends on the direction of the leg
    • outbound – Uses the presence-id or else it uses the SIP Request address
    • inbound – the SIP To header

Flex UC-specific properties

These are properties set by Flex UC for internal purposes. These are the properties found under the custom_channel_varsproperty at the top-level of the CDR JSON object. The non-exhaustive list of properties:

  • account_id – Account ID this leg belongs to
  • authorizing_id – Document ID used to authorize this call leg
  • authorizing_type – Type of document used to authorize call
    • device – the call leg is to/from a known Flex UC device
    • mobile – the call leg is to/from a known Flex UC mobile device
    • resource – the call leg is from a known offnet carrier
    • outbound_fax
  • bridge_id – Typically the A-leg’s call-id; helps with tracking transfers
  • ecallmgr_node – Which ecallmgr node is processing the call leg
  • fetch_id – The dialplan XML fetch ID from FreeSWITCH
  • realm – the SIP realm of the account
  • resource_id – Resource ID used for the leg; typically a carrier, local or global, that the call was routed to
  • username – the SIP username of the endpoint that started the leg

These properties relate to how the leg was rated and billed. Some of these properties are not accessible via Crossbar, but may exist on the CDR

  • reseller_billing – tag describing what billing was used for the reseller
  • reseller_id – Account ID of the reseller for the account of this leg
  • account_billing – tag describing what billing was used for the account
  • rate – Rate of the call
  • base_cost – How much the call costs to start (if per-minute)
  • rate_name – Name of the rate doc used
  • surcharge – Surcharge added to the leg
  • rate_minimum – Minimum number of seconds to bill for
  • rate_increment – Increment of seconds to bill for

Fax-specific Properties

These properties may exist on a CDR for a fax request (inbound or outbound):

  • fax_transfer_rate – Baud of the fax transfer
  • fax_bad_rows – Number of rows that failed to transfer
  • fax_total_pages – Number of pages in the fax (see fax_transferred_pages for how many made it)
  • fax_transferred_pages – Number of pages transferred
  • fax_ecm_used – Was ECM (error correction mode) used on the fax
  • fax_result_text – Error String, if any, or ‘OK’ if successful
  • fax_result_code – Result code of the transmission
  • fax_success – boolean for whether the fax was considered a success
  • fax_t38 – boolean for whether the fax T.38 was used

Resource Properties

All resource properties are set by the Stepswitch application.

  • resource_type – This property attempts to explain the reason the resource was used. The possible values are:
    • offnet-origination – Inbound call from a resource/carrier to a Flex UC account
    • offnet-termination – Outbound call from a Flex UC account to a resource/carrier
    • onnet-origination – Inbound call from a Flex UC account to another Flex UC account
    • onnet-termination – Outbound call from a Flex UC account to another Flex UC account
  • global_resource – This boolean is TRUE when the channel has been created by processing a resource from the offnet database, and FALSE if the resource is from an account database (local).
  • resource_id – This is resource document id used to create the channel
