The Trunk Object - Vobiz

The Trunk object represents a SIP trunking connection in your account. A trunk provides the foundation for voice communication by managing authentication, rate limiting, and routing configuration. Each trunk can have multiple credentials, IP access control lists, and origination URIs to support various use cases.

Auto-Generated SIP Domain: When a trunk is created, Vobiz automatically generates a unique SIP domain in the format: trunkId.sip.vobiz.ai. This domain is used for inbound call routing to your trunk.

Attributes

Field	Type	Description
`trunk_id`	string (UUID)	Unique identifier for the trunk. Automatically generated upon creation.
`account_id`	string	Account identifier (`auth_id`) that owns this trunk.
`name`	string	Descriptive name for the trunk. Required. Maximum 255 characters.
`trunk_domain`	string	Auto-generated SIP domain in the form `<uuid>.sip.vobiz.ai`.
`trunk_status`	string	Status of the trunk. Common values: `active`, `inactive`.
`secure`	boolean	Whether the trunk uses TLS/SRTP. Default: `false`.
`trunk_direction`	string	Direction of calls. One of `inbound`, `outbound`, `both`.
`concurrent_calls_limit`	integer	Maximum number of simultaneous calls allowed. Default: `10`.
`cps_limit`	integer	Calls-per-second rate limit to prevent flooding. Default: `2`.
`description`	string	Optional description with additional context about the trunk’s purpose or configuration.
`transport`	string	SIP transport protocol. One of `udp`, `tcp`.
`recording`	boolean	Whether call recording is enabled on the trunk.
`enable_transcription`	boolean	Whether call transcription is enabled.
`pii_redaction`	boolean	Whether PII redaction is applied to transcripts.
`webhook_method`	string	HTTP method used for trunk webhooks. e.g., `POST`.
`recording_webhook_enabled`	boolean	Whether the recording webhook is enabled.
`credential_uuid`	string (UUID)	UUID of the credential attached to the trunk (outbound trunks).
`primary_uri_uuid`	string (UUID)	UUID of the primary origination URI (inbound trunks).
`inbound_destination`	string	Destination for inbound call routing (inbound trunks).
`created_at`	string (ISO 8601)	Timestamp when the trunk was created. Format: `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ` (UTC).
`updated_at`	string (ISO 8601)	Timestamp of the last update to the trunk. Format: `YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ssZ` (UTC).

Example

A typical trunk object returned by the API:

  "account_id": "MA_XXXXXXXX",
  "name": "Acme Production Trunk",
  "trunk_domain": "aabbccdd-1234-5678-90ab-cdef12345678.sip.vobiz.ai",
  "trunk_status": "active",

  "trunk_direction": "both",
  "concurrent_calls_limit": 10,
  "cps_limit": 2,
  "description": "",
  "transport": "udp",
  "recording": false,
  "enable_transcription": false,
  "pii_redaction": false,
  "webhook_method": "POST",
  "recording_webhook_enabled": false,
  "created_at": "2026-05-12T05:11:52.054462Z",
  "updated_at": "2026-05-12T05:11:52.054462Z"
}

Rate Limiting: The concurrent_calls_limit and cps_limit protect your trunk from overload and help manage costs.Timestamps: All timestamps are in UTC timezone following ISO 8601 format.
