Setup Microsoft SQL Express making and accepting calls using a Database

In this chapter you can learn about how to make and accept calls using a Microsoft SQL Express database server with your Ozeki Phone System. In this guide you can get information about the installation steps, the database connection string, the database connection type and the database table layout for Microsoft SQL Express database server.

During the configuration you should choose the following database connection type:

OleDb

You should use the next database connection string:

Provider=SQLNCLI;Server=.SQLEXPRESS;User ID=ozeki;password=qwe123;Database=OzekiPBX;Persist Security Info=True

The database connection string have to be modified to match your database.

The connection string and the connection type should be entered on the SQL OzML API configuration form.

After the OzML SQL API has been configured in the Ozeki Phone System, you need to create the database tables for OzML SQL API. Use the following table layout: 

-- -----------------------------------------------------
-- Table `OzekiPBX`.`ozmlin`
-- -----------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE ozmlin
(
  id int identity(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
  callerid varchar(40) NOT NULL,
  scriptid int(10) NOT NULL,
  duration int(10) DEFAULT NULL,
  status varchar(40) DEFAULT NULL,
  recordurl varchar(150) DEFAULT NULL,
  starttime datetime DEFAULT NULL
);

-- -----------------------------------------------------
-- Table `OzekiPBX`.`ozmlout`
-- -----------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE ozmlout
(
  id int identity(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
  dialednumber varchar(40) NOT NULL,
  status varchar(40) DEFAULT NULL,
  duration int(10) DEFAULT NULL,
  scriptid int(10) DEFAULT NULL,
  recordurl varchar(150) DEFAULT NULL,
  starttime datetime DEFAULT NULL
);

-- -----------------------------------------------------
-- Table `OzekiPBX`.`ozmlscripts`
-- -----------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE ozmlscripts
(
  scriptid int identity(1,1) PRIMARY KEY,
  ozml varchar(10000) NOT NULL
);
