Abstract
Embodiments herein relate to a method performed by a first network node (140) in a wireless communications network (100), for handling media channels during an ongoing media session. The ongoing media session is a session comprising a first UE (120), a second UE (121) and the first network node (140). The first network node (140) obtains, from the first UE (120), a voice instruction comprising a keyword for invoking a third party service within the media session. The first network node (140) further detects the keyword for invoking the third party service within the media session. The first network node (140) modifies, based on the detection of the keyword, a media channel between the first network node (140) and the second UE (121) to be silent. The first network node (140) further modifies, based on the detection of the keyword, a media channel between the first network node (140) and a third party network device (150) to be unsilent. Embodiments herein further relate to a method performed by the second network node (141). The second network node obtains, from the first network node (140), an indication that one or more services are requested from the third party network device (…
