Get an IVR step (user, pbx)

Returns the single IVR step (keypad button) identified by the path parameter.

Auth. Either a user bearer token (abilities ['*']) or an Integrations API key carrying the ivrs scope. One scope covers the menu and its buttons: there is deliberately NO separate ivr-steps scope. A key without ivrs responds 403.

Tenancy. The lookup is scoped to the PBX resolved from the token, so an id belonging to ANOTHER PBX responds 404 exactly like an id that does not exist at all. The two cases are deliberately indistinguishable: the API never confirms the existence of another tenant's resource.

Shape. Read-only projection: the legacy voip_ivr_btn_id platform mapping is not exposed. The parent menu is opt-in through ?include=ivr; the ivr key is absent from the payload otherwise, and the embedded menu never carries its own steps.

HTTP: bearerAuth

User bearer token. Default authentication for customer-facing endpoints. Obtain a token by calling POST /login with your credentials, then send it on every subsequent request as Authorization: Bearer <token>. The token inherits the permissions and PBX scope of the authenticated user.

HTTP Authorization Scheme
bearer
Bearer format
Bearer <token>
HTTP: IntegrationApiKey

API key created on the Cockpit Integrations page (an "API key" integration). It is a bearer token owned by the customer's PBX and limited to the scopes selected when the key was created (e.g. phone-numbers, push-configuration).

Send it in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer <api_key>

Manage keys (create / reveal / revoke) from Integrations → New integration → API key.

HTTP Authorization Scheme
bearer
id path · string · uuid *
Identifier of the IVR step, which must belong to the caller's own PBX.
include query · string
Relation to embed. The only allowed value is `ivr`, which adds the parent menu under `ivr`. Anything else responds 422.
enum: ivr
accept header · string
example: application/json

Responses

Response schema
id*string · uuid
Unique identifier of the IVR step.
read-only
example: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000
pbx_id*string · uuid
Identifier of the Pbx (tenant) that owns this IVR step. Always the caller's own PBX: the endpoint never returns another tenant's steps.
read-only
example: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440001
ivr_id*string · uuid
Identifier of the parent IVR menu this step belongs to.
example: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440002
target_type*string
Polymorphic morph class of the routing target, stored as the fully qualified PHP class name. Together with `target_id` it identifies where the call is routed when this option is selected. Valid targets are call flows and IVRs.
enum: App\Models\CallFlow App\Models\Ivr
example: App\Models\CallFlow
target_id*string · uuid
Identifier of the routing target resource. The kind of resource is given by `target_type` (a CallFlow or an Ivr).
example: 550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440003
namestring | null
Optional human-readable label for this step, shown in the admin UI to describe where the option routes. Null when no label has been set.
example: Sales department
option*string | null
The DTMF key that selects this step. The special value `default` is the fallback applied when the caller does not press any key before the IVR timeout.
enum: default 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 * # null
example: 1
languagestring | null
Announcement language override applied from this step onward. `null` (Auto) means the language detected/inherited earlier in the call is kept. ISO-639-1 code otherwise.
enum: en de fr lb es it pt nl pl ru tr sv da no fi cs sk el hu ro bg hr uk ar he hi ja ko zh id ms th vi null
example: fr
created_at*string | null · date-time
Timestamp when the IVR step was created.
read-only
example: 2024-03-01T08:29:07.000000Z
updated_at*string | null · date-time
Timestamp when the IVR step was last updated.
read-only
example: 2024-03-01T08:29:07.000000Z
ivrobject
The parent IVR menu. Present ONLY when the request carries `?include=ivr`; the key is absent from the payload otherwise. Serialised without its own `steps`, so the two resources cannot recurse into each other.
Authorization Token Missing. This error is returned when the authorization token is missing.
Response schema
errorstring
Error message
example: Authorization Token is missing
Forbidden. The bearer token authenticated successfully but does not carry the scope this endpoint requires. Re-create the Integrations API key with the missing scope selected (Integrations > New integration > API key).
Response schema
messagestring
Not Found. No IVR step with this id exists inside the caller's own PBX. The same 404 is returned when the id is unknown and when it belongs to another PBX: the API does not disclose which.
Response schema
messagestring
Unprocessable Query. Two different problems share this status on the read endpoints: * a query parameter has the wrong TYPE (`page` / `per_page` not an integer, `filter` not an array, `sort` not a string). The body carries an `errors` map keyed by parameter name. * a `filter[...]` key, a `sort` field or an `include` relation that the endpoint does not allow was requested. The body carries a single `message` naming the allowed values. Nothing is returned and no partial result is produced: correct the query string and retry.
Response schema
messagestring
Present when an unsupported filter, sort or include was requested. The values it enumerates are the allow-list of the endpoint that returned it, so they differ per endpoint; the examples below show the `/ivrs` allow-list.
errorsobject
Present when a query parameter has the wrong type. Keyed by parameter name.
Free-form object
Server error. An unexpected condition was encountered on the server and the request could not be completed. The body is a generic JSON envelope with a `message` field. The response is logged on the server side; quote the request URL + timestamp when reporting an issue.
