Answer

Answers an inbound call that is currently in the inbound state. If the inbound call is in the answered state this action is ignored.

Note

Calls are answered implicitly by the first action that interacts with the caller. Setting the Early media advanced setting for an inbound service will allow the application to play media before answering the call.
