Update tags for a person profile
Use the People tags element in Answers to update the tags for a person profile in People.
You can do the following:
- Add one or more tags to a profile.
- Verify whether the specified tags are present in a profile.
- Remove one or more tags from a profile.
Send a thank you message to end users
You can now send a message to the end user thanking them for providing feedback. This message is also an acknowledgement that the chatbot has received the survey response.
The chatbot sends this message when end users complete the CSAT survey.
For more information, refer to the CSAT survey element documentation.
Obtain unique click IDs for Facebook ads and posts
Use the whatsAppMoReferralCtwaClickId fixed attribute to obtain the unique click identifier for Facebook ads and posts. When an end user clicks a Facebook ad or post that contains WhatsApp call-to-action, and starts a conversation with the chatbot, a unique identifier is generated.
This ID is unique for each click. Example: If an end user clicks an ad 2 times, 2 IDs are generated.
Use this information to identify the number of unique clicks for the ad or post.

SIP Trunking: advanced features for fixed IP trunk
This release unveils our ambitious plans to elevate and expand our SIP trunking solution. Our primary focus will be on enhancing the capabilities of fixed IP trunks, introducing a host of exciting new features that will empower you to optimize and customize your SIP trunking experience.
The enhancements include:

- Distinct Source IPs: Defining one or several distinct source IPs. This feature allows you to conveniently send traffic from different IPs than the ones used for receiving traffic.
- Transport and Security Options: Choose between User Datagram Protocol (UDP) or the secure Transport Layer Security (TLS) with Secure Real-Time Transport Protocol (SRTP). Seamlessly switch between protocols to suit your specific requirements.
- Codec Selection: Expanded codec support and choose between PCMU, PCMA, or G729. Tailor your voice transmissions to deliver exceptional audio quality and optimize bandwidth usage.
- DTMF Transcoding: Experience enhanced compatibility and seamless communication with inband and RFC 2833 DTMF transcoding. Empower your users to use various methods for transmitting dual-tone multi-frequency (DTMF) signals.
- Fax Support: Seamlessly integrate fax capabilities into your SIP trunking solution with support for both inband and T.38 protocols. Send and receive faxes, unlocking new possibilities for your communication workflows.
- International Restriction: Exercise control over your call routing by blocking international calls when the originating and destination numbers are in different countries. Safeguard your resources and streamline communication within desired geographical boundaries.
- Number Format Customization: Tailor the format of inbound and outbound numbers according to your preferences. Choose between international (10 digits), E164, or US Domestic formats, ensuring seamless compatibility with your existing dialing conventions.
Introducing Call Routing for SIP Trunks and PSTN calls
This release announces Call Routing, our powerful new routing application. This is a significant milestone in providing a resilient and versatile solution for communication.
The key features include:

- Infobip DID Number Assignment: Assign an Infobip DID number to a route to enable seamless execution when an incoming call is received. The assigned number acts as a trigger, initiating the route and directing the call accordingly.
- Sequential Call Bridging: Call Routing executes the defined route by sequentially attempting to bridge the call to each destination. This process continues until a successful connection is established. Once connected, the route processing is completed.
- Call Session Recording: Capture the call sessions resulting from each destination in the route. Users have the option to record audio files separately or combine them, providing a comprehensive record of the communication.
- Portal and API configurations: enjoy the convenience of creating and overseeing your routes through both the intuitive Infobip Portal and API methods.
