ch call. [(3) ]() Next step: Check the detailed logs in your call history for the specific
disconnection_reason
and any SIP error codes. This will help pinpoint the root cause. [(1) ]() [(2) ]()
### Answer --- This issue—call connects but no audio in either direction and nothing recorded—typically points to one of these causes: 1. Check the disconnection reason and detailed logs Go to your call history in the Retell Dashboard and check the
disconnection_reason
field and detailed logs for the call. [(1) ]() [(2) ]() Common error codes that may appear include: - `error_no_audio_received`: Retell has not received audio from the telephony side after connection. [(2) ]() -
error_llm_websocket_open
or `error_llm_websocket_lost_connection`: Issues with the LLM websocket connection. *2. If using custom telephony (SIP trunking) * - Double-check your SIP configuration and ensure the correct information was imported. [(1) ]() - Verify that audio is being routed correctly through your telephony provider. A similar issue was reported where calls connected but had no transcription, recording, or analysis—this was linked to SIP connection setup. [(3) ]() - If configuration is incorrect, delete the imported number and re-import. [(1) ]() - Check with your telephony provider to see if there's an error on their side. 3. If using a Retell-purchased number - Ensure the destination number can accept the call (currently, Retell-purchased numbers can only make calls to US numbers) . 4. Data storage settings - If you have "Basic Attributes only" selected in security & fallback settings, recordings and transcripts may not appear in the dashboard—they would only be available via the webhook after ea

Thanks for the follow-up, @xavera23. I'll get back to you soon.

### Answer I don't have information in the available sources about Retell providing .pcap (packet capture) files for specific call IDs. The sources discuss debugging SIP/audio issues but don't mention a feature or API endpoint to retrieve pcap captures from Retell's side. For your no-audio outbound call issue, I'd suggest: 1. Contact Retell support directly to request any available network-level diagnostics for your call ID 2. Capture on your end — if you're using custom telephony/SIP, you can capture pcap files from your own infrastructure to analyze the RTP streams [(1) ]() Check out these potentially useful sources: - [Debug outbound connection issues]() - [Debug call disconnection]() - [Contact Sales]() Would you like a general answer about how to capture and analyze SIP/RTP traffic on your side instead?
