You might be wondering whether or not you should create an assistant using the /assistant endpoint with its assistantId. Or, can you just specify the assistant configuration when starting a call? The /assistant endpoint is there for convenience to save you creating your own assistants table.
  • You won’t be adding more assistant properties on top of ours.
  • You want to use the same assistant across multiple calls.
Otherwise, you can just specify the assistant configuration when starting a call.
