The remaining columns will be used to populate your Retell agent’s dynamic variables.\n- All fields are returned as strings to Retell (variables are replaced as text)\n\n## How it works\n- The webhook call is received from Retell. We filter the call using their whitelisted IP address.\n- It extracts data from the webhook call and uses it to retrieve the user from Google Sheets.\n- It formats the data in the response to match Retell's expected format.\n- Retell uses this data to replace [dynamic variables](https://docs.retellai.com/build/dynamic-variables#dynamic-variables) in the prompts.\n\n\n## How to use it\nSee the description for screenshots!\n- Set the webhook name (keep it as POST).\n- Copy the Webhook URL (e.g., `https://your-instance.app.n8n.cloud/webhook/retell-dynamic-variables`) and paste it into Retell's interface. Navigate to \"Phone Numbers\", click on the phone number, and enable \"Add an inbound webhook\".\n- In your prompt (e.g., \"welcome message\"), use the variable with this syntax: `{{variable_name}}` (see [Retell's documentation](https://docs.retellai.com/build/dynamic-variables)).\n- These variables will be dynamically replaced by the data in your Google Sheet.\n\n\n## Notes\n- In Google Sheets, the phone number must start with `'+'`.\n- Phone numbers must be formatted like the example: with the `+`, extension, and no spaces.\n- You can use any database—just replace Google Sheets with your own, making sure to keep the phone number formatting consistent.\n"
