# Telnyx Voice Conferencing - Java
## Installation
```text
com.telnyx.sdk
telnyx
6.36.0
// Gradle
implementation("com.telnyx.sdk:telnyx:6.36.0")
```
## Setup
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.client.TelnyxClient;
import com.telnyx.sdk.client.okhttp.TelnyxOkHttpClient;
TelnyxClient client = TelnyxOkHttpClient.fromEnv();
```
All examples below assume `client` is already initialized as shown above.
## Error Handling
All API calls can fail with network errors, rate limits (429), validation errors (422),
or authentication errors (401). Always handle errors in production code:
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.errors.TelnyxServiceException;
try {
var result = client.messages().send(params);
} catch (TelnyxServiceException e) {
System.err.println("API error " + e.statusCode() + ": " + e.getMessage());
if (e.statusCode() == 422) {
System.err.println("Validation error — check required fields and formats");
} else if (e.statusCode() == 429) {
// Rate limited — wait and retry with exponential backoff
Thread.sleep(1000);
}
}
```
Common error codes: `401` invalid API key, `403` insufficient permissions,
`404` resource not found, `422` validation error (check field formats),
`429` rate limited (retry with exponential backoff).
## Important Notes
- **Pagination:** List methods return a page. Use `.autoPager()` for automatic iteration: `for (var item : page.autoPager()) { ... }`. For manual control, use `.hasNextPage()` and `.nextPage()`.
## Enqueue call
Put the call in a queue.
`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/enqueue` — Required: `queue_name`
Optional: `client_state` (string), `command_id` (string), `keep_after_hangup` (boolean), `max_size` (integer), `max_wait_time_secs` (integer)
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.models.calls.actions.ActionEnqueueParams;
import com.telnyx.sdk.models.calls.actions.ActionEnqueueResponse;
ActionEnqueueParams params = ActionEnqueueParams.builder()
.callControlId("v3:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_gRU1OGRkYQ")
.queueName("support")
.build();
ActionEnqueueResponse response = client.calls().actions().enqueue(params);
```
Returns: `result` (string)
## Remove call from a queue
Removes the call from a queue.
`POST /calls/{call_control_id}/actions/leave_queue`
Optional: `client_state` (string), `command_id` (string)
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.models.calls.actions.ActionLeaveQueueParams;

## Update queued call
Update queued call's keep_after_hangup flag
`PATCH /queues/{queue_name}/calls/{call_control_id}`
Optional: `keep_after_hangup` (boolean)
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.models.queues.calls.CallUpdateParams;
CallUpdateParams params = CallUpdateParams.builder()
.queueName("my-queue")
.callControlId("v3:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_gRU1OGRkYQ")
.build();
client.queues().calls().update(params);
```
## Force remove a call from a queue
Removes an inactive call from a queue. If the call is no longer active, use this command to remove it from the queue.
`DELETE /queues/{queue_name}/calls/{call_control_id}`
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.models.queues.calls.CallRemoveParams;
CallRemoveParams params = CallRemoveParams.builder()
.queueName("my-queue")
.callControlId("v3:550e8400-e29b-41d4-a716-446655440000_gRU1OGRkYQ")
.build();

## Webhooks
### Webhook Verification
Telnyx signs webhooks with Ed25519. Each request includes `telnyx-signature-ed25519`
and `telnyx-timestamp` headers. Always verify signatures in production:
```java
import com.telnyx.sdk.core.UnwrapWebhookParams;
import com.telnyx.sdk.core.http.Headers;
// In your webhook handler (e.g., Spring — use raw body):
@PostMapping("/webhooks")
public ResponseEntity handleWebhook(
@RequestBody String payload,
HttpServletRequest request) {
try {
Headers headers = Headers.builder()
.put("telnyx-signature-ed25519", request.getHeader("telnyx-signature-ed25519"))
.put("telnyx-timestamp", request.getHeader("telnyx-timestamp"))
.build();
var event = client.webhooks().unwrap(
UnwrapWebhookParams.builder()
.body(payload)
.headers(headers)
.build());
// Signature valid — process the event
System.out.println("Received webhook event");
return ResponseEntity.ok("OK");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("Webhook verification failed: " + e.getMessage());
return ResponseEntity.badRequest().body("Invalid signature");
}
}
```
The following webhook events are sent to your configured webhook URL.
All webhooks include `telnyx-timestamp` and `telnyx-signature-ed25519` headers for Ed25519 signature verification. Use `client.webhooks.unwrap()` to verify.
