The Hangup applet terminates a call. Use it as the final step in a call flow to cleanly end the conversation.

## How It Works

When a call reaches the Hangup applet, the call is immediately disconnected.

## Usage

Place the Hangup applet at the end of any branch in your call flow where you want the call to terminate:

:::BlockQuote
Incoming Call → Greeting → IVR Menu
                           ├── 1 → Connect → Hangup
                           ├── 2 → Connect → Hangup
                           └── No input → Greeting ("Goodbye") → Hangup

:::

## When to Use

- At the end of every call flow branch to ensure calls are properly terminated
- After a Greeting applet that plays a final message
- As a fallback for unhandled IVR inputs
