Inconsistent connectedTime attribute in API responses

Why does the conversation metadata sometimes include "connectedTime" in the participant object and sometimes does not?

Here is an example of two conversation Ids from the same customer:

  • /api/v2/conversations/c4851042-98c8-4a20-8f7e-10c6dbe197fe
    • includes "connectedTime" for each participant
  • /api/v2/conversations/4c7ede52-ca37-481d-887c-8febbfee50db
    • does not include "connectedTime" for any participant, though includes "startTime" and "endTime"

Without being able to see any of the Conversation JSON for those calls it is hard to give you a definitive answer, but if they are outbound calls that didn't connect (bad number, endless ringing) then you'll have a startTime and endTime but not a connectedTime. You will only get a connectedTime if the call actually connects.

Note an outbound call that gets an answering machine is likely to show a connectedTime because the call was established on both ends, thus "connected".
