The blind transfer guide documents the refer, dial, and bye SIP verbs but doesn't say what happens to the original call once a dial transfer starts. This adds a short "Call state after a dial transfer" section clarifying that dial keeps Vapi bridging the call (so recording continues and there's no built-in way to return the caller to the original assistant), unlike refer, which hands the call off independently. It also adds a matching troubleshooting row and links to assistant-based warm transfer and the transfer-destination-request webhook as the supported ways to resume the original assistant.
