Copy the webhook URL (e.g. `https://your-instance.app.n8n.cloud/webhook/hotel-retell-template`)\n2. Modify the Retell Custom Function webhook URL (see template description for screenshots)\n    - Edit the function\n    - Modify the URL\n3. Modify the logic in the Set node or replace it with your own custom flow\n4. Deploy and test: Retell will hit your n8n workflow during the conversation\n\n## Extension Ideas\n- Call a third-party API to fetch data (e.g. hotel availability, CRM records)\n- Use an LLM node to generate dynamic responses\n- Trigger a parallel automation (Slack message, calendar invite, etc.)\n\n#### \ud83d\udc49 [Reach out to us](mailto:hello@agentstudio.io) if you're interested in **analyzing your Retell Agent conversations**.\n"}, "typeVersion": 1}], "pinData": {"Webhook": [{"body": {"args": {"guest-name": "Mike Smith", "hotel-name": "Agent Studios", "total-cost": "190", "check-in-date": "2025-03-29", "check-out-date": "2025-03-30", "number-of-nights": 1, "room-type-booked": "Deluxe Suite"}, "call": {"call_id": "playground", "latency": {}, "call_type": "web_call", "tool_mocks": [], "transcript": "Agent: \nUser: Hi, I would like to make a reservation for me and my wife on March 29th.
