Calls API - random incorrect responses

We’ve noted a weird behavior of POST /api/v2/calls/{call_id}/comments endpoint. Randomly, we may get unrelated JSON back. We have hundreds of those cases daily. 

e.g. 

{'id': 26582381911698, 'type': 'Notification', 'via': {'channel': 'rule', 'source': {'from': {'deleted': False, 'title': 'Notify assignee of comment update', 'id': 29505822}, 'rel': 'trigger'}}, 'subject': '[{{ticket.account}}] Re: {{ticket.title}}', 'body': 'This ticket (#{{ticket.id}}) has been updated.\n\n{{ticket.comments_formatted}}', 'recipients': [22155944916242]}

 

Since the introduction of the Calls API years ago, we have seen it across dozens of Zendesk instances. Can someone from the Zendesk team take a look and save our logs from those errors?

Hey Anton! I just ran some tests in my account and I wasn't able to replicate it. Are you seeing the issue show up from strictly with triggers? Is there any other pattern that you're seeing? I can definitely bring this to the dev team, but the more info that I have, the better. Also if you happen to have a timestamp for a couple occurrences, that would let me check for any patterns on my side.

Hi Graig, @greg29 !
The Calls API It has nothing to do with triggers. The ‘calls’ endpoint returns random chunks of other events in the tickets not related to the original request.  I can share complete requests privately.
