Create your Vonage Application
In this step you will create a Vonage Application capable of in-app voice communication use cases.
Open a new terminal and, if required, navigate to your project directory.
Create a Vonage application by copying and pasting the command below into terminal:
vonage apps create 'Your application'

Now that your Vonage Application has been created, update your CLI auth with the Application ID and Private Key:
vonage auth set \ --local \ --api-key='your-api-key' \ --api-secret='your-api-secret' \ --app-id='your-application-id' \ --private-key=/path/to/private.key API Key: your-api-key API Secret: your-************** App ID: your-application-id Private Key: Is Set ✅ Checking API Key Secret ✅ Checking App ID and Private Key
Next, configure the webhooks on your Vonage Application. Make sure to change the values of --voice-answer-url and --voice-event-url arguments, by replacing the URLs with https://SUBDOMAIN.loca.lt/voice/answer and https://SUBDOMAIN.loca.lt/voice/event respectively. SUBDOMAIN is the actual value used in the previous step:
