Create an IVR (user)

Create an IVR menu. announcement is the SoundFile of type announcement played when entering the menu; musicOnHold is an optional SoundFile of type music. default_action controls what happens on caller timeout.

User token only. This route sits behind the token.user guard and is NOT reachable with an Integrations API key: the ivrs scope grants read access only. An API key presented here responds 403 whatever its scopes. IVR menus are normally created and edited in the cockpit UI.

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.

Authorization Token Missing. This error is returned when the authorization token is missing.

Error message
example: Authorization Token is missing
Forbidden. This route is confined to USER-owned bearer tokens (the `token.user` guard). The request presented a customer Integrations API key, which is a Pbx-owned token: no scope grants write access here. Read operations on the same resource are open to API keys; creating or editing is done with a user token or in the cockpit UI.
