Handle an incoming call to your Sinch number using Laravel

This project will run a Laravel Server that can handle ICE Callbacks from the Sinch Platform @ POST /api/incoming-call

Requirements

• Docker
• ngrok
• WSL2 (for Windows Users)

Instructions

In order to bootstrap the project, you first have to git clone it locally. Then cd laravel-handle-incoming-call-sinch. We're now going to install the project's dependencies using a PHP container with Composer preinstalled, therefore run:

docker run --rm \
    -u "$(id -u):$(id -g)" \
    -v $(pwd):/var/www/html \
    -w /var/www/html \
    laravelsail/php81-composer:latest \
    composer install --ignore-platform-reqs

After installing the dependencies we can bootstrap the project using vendor/bin/sail up. This command will take a while when running it the first time. See the Laravel Sail for documentation for more.

Run ngrok and set the Sinch App Callback URL

Using ngrok, ngrok http 8081 set the Sinch Callback URL to the generated ngrok URL http:{ngrok-path}/api/incoming-call.

Congratulations

You can call your Sinch owned number that has been configured with your App. You will hear the message defined in routes/api.php file.
