connect to conference Action

Connects an existing inbound or outbound (primary) call to a conference as a conference participant via an outbound (secondary) call. It allows you to tailor how the participant influences the conference and how it interacts with other participants in the conference.


Note that web apps that use the connect to conference action require Extra Channels to be set to one or more in the service configuration.

The connect to conference properties are:

PropertyRequired/OptionalDefaultDescription
name required - The name of the conference to call.
hold media optional null A play action. Media to play repeatedly to the primary call until the secondary call is connected. null signifies playing ringing to the call.
seconds answer timeout optional 30 An integer. The time to wait for the secondary call to be answered.
conference participant optional null A conference participant object that determines how the participant interacts with the conference.
secondary call optional null A secondary call object that specifies pages and properties that are related to the lifetime of the secondary call.
next page optional null A web page request object that defines the web page to be requested once the connect to conference has finished. If null or no page is specified then the subsequent action in the action array will be executed.

conference participant controls how a participant interacts with a conference. It has the properties:

PropertyRequired/OptionalDefaultDescription
talker optional true true or false. Whether this participant can talk to the conference.
start on entry optional true true or false. Whether the conference should start when this participant enters.
destroy on exit optional false true or false. Whether the conference should be destroyed when this participant exits.
beep on entry optional true true or false. Whether a beep should be played to the conference when this participant enters.
exit digit optional null A string containing a single digit that results in the participant leaving the conference. null or an empty string signifies no exit digit. Valid digits are 0123456789ABCD#*.
mute digit optional null A string containing a single digit that will mute the participant's audio input if pressed. If no unmute digit is specified, this will toggle mute on and off. null or an empty string signifies no mute digit. Valid digits are 0123456789ABCD#*.
unmute digit optional mute digit A string containing a single digit that will unmute the participant's audio input if pressed. null or an empty string results in the mute digit toggling mute on and off. Valid digits are 0123456789ABCD#*.
while stopped media optional null A play action to play in an endless loop while the conference is stopped.
name optional null A play action to play the participant's name.
has joined message optional null A play action to play when the participant has joined.
has left message optional null A play action to play when the participant has left.

secondary call determines the pages and properties relating to the outbound (secondary) call:

PropertyRequired/OptionalDefaultDescription
call recording optional false true or false. Whether to record the whole of the secondary call.
call recording encryption optional false true or false. Whether to encrypt the whole call recording.
minutes max call duration optional 240 An integer. The maximum duration of the secondary call in minutes. The secondary call is hung up if this is exceeded.
first page optional null The page to request when the secondary call has been answered. This gives the application an opportunity to interact with the secondary call before it is then connected to the primary call.
final page optional null The page that is requested when either the primary or secondary call is hung up (i.e. the connection has been broken).
error page optional null The page to request when there is an error during the connect action.

web page request defines how a specific web page is requested:

PropertyRequired/OptionalDefaultDescription
url required - The address of the web page to request.
method optional POST One of "GET" or "POST". The HTTP request method to use when requesting the url.

Returns

The result of a successful connect to conference action will be returned via the subsequent http request to the next page in action result as follows:

PropertyDescription
seconds connected duration A floating point value to one decimal place. The duration for which the call was connected to the conference.

Remarks

The connect to conference action makes a single outbound (secondary) call to a specified conference. If it is answered it is typically immediately connected to the primary call.

Setting the secondary call first page allows the application to interact with the conference before it is connected. See the connect action for more details.

  • Examples:

    • Call up conference BobsChatRoom using the default settings:

          "connect_to_conference" :
    {
        "name" : "BobsChatRoom"
    }

    • Call up conference BobsChatRoom and connect to it specifying some features of the participant. Request conferenceNextPage after leaving the conference:

          "connect_to_conference" :
    {
        "name" : "BobsChatRoom",
        "hold_media" : {"play" : { "play_list" : [ { "file_to_play" : "cool_jazz.wav" } ] } },
        "seconds_answer_timeout" : 30,
        "secondary_call" :
        {
            "call_recording" : true,
            "minutes_max_call_duration" : 240
        },
        "conference_participant" :
        {
            "talker" : true,
            "start_on_entry" : true,
            "destroy_on_exit" : true,
            "beep_on_entry" : true,
            "mute_digit" : "#",
            "unmute_digit" : "*",
            "exit_digit" : "9",
            "while_stopped_media" : { "play" : { "play_list" : [ { "file_to_play" : "cool_jazz.wav" } ] } },
            "name" : { "play" : { "play_list" : [ { "text_to_say" : "Bob" } ] } },
            "has_joined_message" : { "play" : { "play_list" : [ { "text_to_say" : "has joined the conference." } ] } },
            "has_left_message" : { "play" : { "play_list" : [ { "text_to_say" : "has left the conference." } ] } }
        },
        "next_page" : 
        {
            "url" : "conferenceNextPage"
        }
    }

      Once the connect to conference action has finished the duration for which the call was connected to the conference is specified in the request for the next page:

      "action_result" :
{
    "action" : "connect_to_conference",
    "result" :
    {
        "seconds_connected_duration" : "131.1"
    }
}

    • Call up conference BobsChatRoom, requesting conferenceFirstPage when the call to the conference is answered. Connect to the conference once all conferenceFirstPage's actions have run. Carry on with the next action once the connect to conference has finished:

          "connect_to_conference" :
    {
        "name" : "BobsChatRoom",
        "hold_media" : {"play" : { "play_list" : [ { "file_to_play" : "cool_jazz.wav" } ] } },
        "seconds_answer_timeout" : 30,
        "secondary_call" :
        {
            "call_recording" : true,
            "minutes_max_call_duration" : 240,
            "first_page" : "conferenceFirstPage",
            "final_page" : "conferenceFinalPage",
            "error_page" : "conferenceErrorPage"
        }
    }

    The ConnectToConferenceResult class

    Introduction

    Represents the result of a connect to conference action.

    Class synopsis

    class ConnectToConferenceResult extends ActionResult {

    /* methods */
    public float getSecondsConnectedDuration()
    
    /* inherited methods */
    public string getAction()
    public boolean getInterrupted()
}

    Examples:

    • Call up conference BobsChatRoom using the default settings:

      $ctc = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\ConnectToConference("BobsChatRoom", $participant_config);
$actions->add($ctc);

    • Call up conference BobsChatRoom and connect to it specifying some features of the participant:

      $participant_config = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\ConferenceParticipantConfiguration();
$participant_config->setTalker(true);
$participant_config->setStartOnEntry(true);
$participant_config->setDestroyOnExit(true);
$participant_config->setBeepOnEntry(true);
$participant_config->setMuteDigit('#');
$participant_config->setUnmuteDigit('*');
$participant_config->setExitDigit('9');
$participant_config->setWhileStoppedMedia(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::playFile('cool_jazz.wav'));
$participant_config->setName(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::sayText('Bob'));
$participant_config->setHasJoinedMessage(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::sayText('has joined the conference'));
$participant_config->setHasLeftMessage(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::sayText('has left the conference'));

$ctc = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\ConnectToConference("BobsChatRoom", $participant_config);
$ctc->setHoldMedia(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::playFile('cool_jazz.wav'));
$ctc->setSecondsAnswerTimeout(30);
$ctc->setNextPage('conferenceNextPage');

$call_config = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\SecondaryCallConfiguration();
$call_config->setMinutesMaxCallDuration(240);
$call_config->setRecord(true);
$ctc->setSecondaryCallConfiguration($call_config);

$actions->add($ctc);

      Obtain the duration for which the call was connected to the conference from the action's next page request:

      $info = InstanceInfo::getInstanceInfo();
$connectToConferenceResult = $info->getActionResult();
$durationConnected = $connectToConferenceResult->getSecondsConnectedDuration();

    • Call up conference BobsChatRoom, requesting conferenceFirstPage when the call to the conference is answered. Connect to the conference once all conferenceFirstPage's actions have run. Carry on with the next action once the connect to conference has finished:

      $ctc = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\ConnectToConference("BobsChatRoom", $participant_config);
$ctc->setHoldMedia(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::playFile('cool_jazz.wav'));
$ctc->setSecondsAnswerTimeout(30);

$call_config = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\SecondaryCallConfiguration();
$call_config->setMinutesMaxCallDuration(240);
$call_config->setRecord(true);
$call_config->setFirstPage('conferenceFirstPage');
$call_config->setErrorPage('conferenceErrorPage');
$call_config->setFinalPage('conferenceFinalPage');
$ctc->setSecondaryCallConfiguration($call_config);

$actions->add($ctc);
