All functions
These are the 11 functions available when you create a Vapi connection in Sympana. Click a function in the Sympana dashboard to enable or disable it.
| Function | What It Does |
|---|
| Book Appointment | Book a new appointment on the linked GHL calendar |
| Get Appointment | Retrieve details of a specific appointment by ID |
| List Appointments | Show all upcoming appointments for the caller |
| Reschedule Appointment | Move an existing appointment to a new date/time |
| Delete Appointment | Cancel an existing appointment |
| Get Slots | Check available time slots on the GHL calendar |
| Get Contact | Look up a contact in GHL by ID, phone, or email |
| Create Contact | Create a new contact in GHL |
| Update Contact Data | Update contact fields (email, name, phone, custom fields) |
| Get Opportunity | Retrieve sales pipeline/deal data for the contact |
| Timezone Resolver | Resolve timezone from phone area code or city/state |
Vapi functions work the same way as Retell functions — the same 11 tools, same parameters, same behavior. The only difference is how Sympana registers them with each provider. You don’t need to worry about this — Sympana handles it automatically.
