3. **Multilingual Support in Tool Messages**: You can now use the `contents` property in `ToolMessageStart`, `ToolMessageFailed`, `ToolMessageDelayed`, and `ToolMessageComplete` to provide message variants for different languages. If you don't provide content for a language, the first item will be automatically translated to the active language during the conversation.

17-
1. **Add Structured Outputs for OpenAI Functions in Assistant Tools**: You can use [OpenAI Structured Outputs](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/structured-outputs) by specifying a new parameter called `strict` as true or false when creating or using `OpenAIFunction`s in `assistant.model.tools[type=function]`. Set the `name`, provide a `description` (up to 1000 characters), and specify `parameters` as a [JSON Schema object](https://json-schema.org/understanding-json-schema). See the [OpenAI guide](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/function-calling) for examples.
23+
4. **Automatic Translation of Message Contents**: For `CustomMessage`, `BlockStartMessage`, and `BlockCompleteMessage`, if specific content isn't provided for a language in `contents`, Vapi automatically translates the first item to the active language by default.

19-
2. **Secure Incoming SIP Phone Calls to Vapi Provided SIP Numbers**: You can now specify a `username`, `password`, and optional `realm` in SIP Invite AuthZ header, through digest authentication. Create this secure SIP number by specifying an "authentication" object with the username and password fields inside `POST /phone-number` request body. Example:
20-
```bash
21-
curl --location 'https://api.vapi.ai/phone-number' \
22-
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
23-
--header 'Authorization: Bearer {}API_KEY}}' \
24-
--data-raw '{
25-
"provider": "vapi",
26-
"sipUri": "sip:{{USERNAME}}@sip.vapi.ai",
27-
"assistantId": "{{ASSISTANT_ID}}",
28-
"name": "example phone number label for your reference",
29-
"authentication": {
30-
"realm": "sip.vapi.ai",
31-
"username": "[email protected]",
32-
"password": "example_password"
33-
}
34-
}'
35-
```
25+
5. **Removed Backchanneling Configuration**: The `backchannelingEnabled` property has been removed from when creating or updating `Assistant` or `AssistantOverrides. Backchanneling is no longer configurable in assistant settings.
3626

37-
3. **Use Updated `handoff`, `callback` Steps in Blocks**: You can now use `assistant.model.steps[type=handoff]` and `assistant.model.steps[type=callback]` to control conversation flow in your assistant. Use `HandoffStep` to move to the next step linearly without returning to the previous step, ideal for sequential tasks like forms. Use `CallbackStep` to spawn a new conversation thread and return to the previous step once done, good for handling interruptions or sub-tasks within a conversation.
3827

39-
4. **Use Step Destinations and Assignment Mutation in Blocks**: Specify destination nodes for each step with `assistant.model.steps[type=handoff].destinations[type=step]` to direct the workflow to specific steps based on certain conditions. Update context variables in each callback step with `mutations[type=assignment]`, for example: `assistant.model.steps[type=callback].mutations[type=assignment]`

2. **Simplified Subscription Status Handling**: Your subscription status no longer includes the `past-due` status, so you can streamline your subscription management without handling 'past-due' scenarios.

</Accordion>
38+
39+
<Accordion title="October 16 to October 19, 2024">
40+
1. **Custom Transcriber Support**: You can now integrate your own transcription service by using `CustomTranscriber` at `assistant.transcriber`, `call.squad.members.assistant.transcriber`, and `call.squad.members.assistantOverrides.transcriber`. Provide your custom transcription server details via `server.url` to receive real-time transcriptions during calls.
41+
42+
2. **Increased Maximum Call Duration**: The maximum allowed value for `maxDurationSeconds` has increased from 21,600 to 43,200 seconds when creating or updating `Assistant` or `AssistantOverrides`. You can now configure your assistant to handle calls lasting up to 12 hours.
43+
44+
3. **New Voice Provider 'tavus'**: You can now specify `tavus` as a voice provider in `Assistant.voice`, `AssistantOverrides.voice`, `Call.voice` and in the Voice Library.
45+
46+
4. **Subscription Status 'frozen' Added**: A new status `frozen` has been added to `Subscription.status`, indicating when a subscription is temporarily inactive.
47+
48+
5. **Added Subscription Coupon Codes**: You can now apply coupon codes to your subscription. Visit the [billing page](https://dashboard.vapi.ai/org/billing) to apply coupons to specific organizations within a subscription.

56+
1. **Apply Coupons to Subscriptions**: You can now apply coupons by specifying a `couponId` to add to a subscription.
57+
58+
2. **Detect Custom Transcriber Failures in Call End Reasons**: You can now handle cases where a custom transcriber fails during a call with `'pipeline-error-custom-transcriber-failed'`, a new `endedReason` option. This is now accessible in `Call`, `ServerMessageStatusUpdate`, and `ServerMessageEndOfCallReport`.
59+
60+
3. **Corrected Typo in Example Custom Voice Request**: We fixed a typo in `CustomVoice.server`, where the example request now shows how to use the `"message"` parameter instead of the misspelled `"messsage"`.
61+
62+
</Accordion>
63+
<Accordion title="October 10 to October 13, 2024">
64+
1. **New Call Transfer Modes Added**: you can now wait for an operator to speak first before providing a transfer message or summary when transferring calls to a new destination with `TransferPlan`. Configure this through *transferPlan.mode=`'warm-transfer-wait-for-operator-to-speak-first-and-then-say-message'`* or *transferPlan.mode=`'warm-transfer-wait-for-operator-to-speak-first-and-then-say-summary'`* inside the request body of `POST /assistant` or `PATCH /assistant`.
65+
66+
2. **Unified Server Configuration in Assistants**: You can now use the `server` property in `Assistant.server`, `AssistantOverrides.server`, and when creating or updating assistants to specify webhook settings, including URL, secret, custom headers, and timeout. This replaces the old `serverUrl` and `serverUrlSecret` properties of `Assistant`.
67+
68+
<Warning>Include custom headers in your webhook requests by using the `headers` property within the `server` object when creating or updating assistants.</Warning>
69+
70+
3. **Configure PlayHT Voice Engines**: You can now configure which PlayHT voice `model` generates voices for your application between `PlayHT2.0`, `PlayHT2.0-turbo`, and `Play3.0-mini`.

To migrate, click "Switch to Credit Based Billing" and make a payment. Advantages include:
80+
81+
- **Support More Users Without Limits**: You don't need to worry about getting throttled or staying under usage limits on the conversations you can have with Vapi.
82+
- **Predictable Budgets**: You know exactly how much you will spend on Vapi each month, and you can top up at any time as your needs grow.
83+
- **Select Add-Ons You Need**: The credit based billing page allows you to select HIPAA compliance, dedicated Slack support, and the maximum number of concurrent calls you expect.
84+
85+
<Warning>This will require human input to login and migrate your account. You will not be able to revert back to the old billing system.</Warning>
