Ozeki Phone System

< Alarm system with HTTP API | Log calls >

Making an outbound call

Learn how you initiate a phone call. With this example you will send an HTTP Request to the installed API Extension for starting a Call, and the API will read a text for the Caller.
Please write the following code into the right file at your web server:

Using this example you will be able to send a request to Ozeki Phone System XE through OPS SDK for making and managing an outgoing call. First of all, please login and connect to the API Extension. After that, use the CreateCall method, subscribe the necessary events and start your call.

Next: Log calls

Example code coming soon...

Code example 1 - Make a call, by sending an HTTP Request to the PBX

Read information about the Request parameters at the following page. Please change the ozekixepbx.ip text to that ip address where the Ozeki Phone System is installed. On the yoursite.com the address should be that where the sample applications are running. The API will get the Request and execute the given OzML commands (that can be found at the Url parameter of the request). In this example, the OzML command looks like this:

[HttpPost]
public ActionResult HandleCallResponse(string notificationName, 
string callLegID, string callee, string apiExtension)
{
	return Content(
   "<Response>" +
	   "<Speak>Hello, this is a test call on " 
	   + DateTime.Now.ToString("MMMM.dd", CultureInfo.InvariantCulture) + "</Speak>" +
   "</Response>", "text/xml");
}

<Response>
  <Speak>This is a test call</Speak>
</Response>

Code example 2 - Speak to the Caller, and hang up the line.

The API Extension just say “Hello, this is a test call” sentence to the Caller, and hang up the line. If any errors occur during the call then the ErrorUrl will be requested. For example you can write a simple application on that URL, what will log the errors.

IN MORE DETAILS

Get the OPSSDK.dll

First you need to add the OPSSDK.dll reference to your project
(You can find OPSSDK.dll at C:\Program Files\Ozeki\Ozeki Phone System\Examples.NET API\OPSSDK.dll).

Login and connect

Create a new instance of OpsClient, and subscribe to the ErrorOccurred event. Your program will communicate with the Ozeki Phone System through this client. Try to login with the client into the running Ozeki Phone System, with the address of the server(ozekixepbx.ip) and a valid username, password combination.

If you are ready, try to get an existing API Extension, with the GetApiExtension method of the OpsClient. Read more about installation of API Extension.

Further steps

When you are ready with the initial steps above, please create a call object with the help of apiExtension's CreateCall method. Subscribe the CallStateChanged, CallErrorOccurred events of the call object and call call.Start() method.

The CallStateChanged event will be triggered when the call is going to another state . When the CallState is Answered, you can connect the devices to the call. When the call has ended, please do not forget to disconnect all devices from the call.

When the CallState is Answered, start and connect a TextToSpeech object to the call, that will read the "Hello, this is a test call" text to the caller. When the TextToSpeech is finished the call will hang up.

With these steps, you learned how to make a call.
