Usually you can get incoming call details using DetailedTelephonyState

eg:

/account/~/extension/~/presence?detailedTelephonyState=true

ref: https://forums.developers.ringcentral.com/questions/377/how-to-get-caller-info-caller-id-and-called-nr-from-telephony-presence-events.html

But as per this link you can see below:

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/50714838/get-caller-information-in-ringcentral

Information in real-time, need to do a lookup via

(a) user's RingCentral personal address book,

(b) account's RingCentral company address book,

(c) your CRM/helpdesk app, or

(d) a third-party Caller-Id (CNAM) API.
