When Retell sends the call_inbound event to your n8n webhook, the payload will look like this:
json
{
"event": "call_inbound",
"call_inbound": {
"agent_id": "agent_12345",
"agent_version": 1,
"from_number": "+12137771234",
"to_number": "+12137771235"
}
}
In your n8n workflow, you can extract from_number from the webhook payload and then pass it back as a dynamic variable in your response so the agent can reference it during the call.
Your webhook response would look something like:
json
{
"call_inbound": {
"dynamic_variables": {
"caller_number": "+12137771234"
}
}
}
This way, you can use {{caller_number}} in your agent's prompt or first message to personalize the conversation with the caller's number.AI Evy
