Connect | Aculab

connect Action

Connects an existing inbound or outbound call (primary call) to a new call destination (secondary call). More than one possible destination can be specified, but only one secondary call ends up being connected. This is typically the first call to be answered.

Note that web apps that use the connect action require sufficient Extra Channels to be set in the service configuration for the number of destinations specified.

The connect properties are:

Property	Required/Optional	Default	Description
destinations	required	-	An array of strings each specifying a destination telephone number or a sip address. The first to answer is connected. The rest are hung up.
call from	optional	a number or address that identifies the primary call	A telephone number or sip address that identifies who is calling. If `destinations` contains one or more telephone numbers then you may need to supply a validated caller id here. See Outbound Calls.
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.
classify callee	optional	null	A `classify callee` object that determines whether and how to classify the far end of the secondary call. null signifies that classification is disabled.
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` has finished. If `null` or no page is specified then the subsequent action in the action array will be executed.

classify callee controls some parameters used in the classification of the type of callee:

Property	Required/Optional	Default	Description
enable	optional	true	true or false. Whether to enable classification of the far end of the secondary call.
milliseconds timeout	optional	5000	An integer. The timeout for classification in milliseconds.
hang up on answering machine	optional	true	Hang up the secondary call if it is to an answering machine.
hang up on fax machine	optional	true	Hang up the secondary call if it is to a fax machine.
answering machine ready to record	optional	null	An `answering machine ready to record` object. null signifies using the default values.

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

Property	Required/Optional	Default	Description
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 (and classification completed, if it has been enabled). This gives the application an opportunity to interact with the secondary call before it is 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.

answering machine ready to record provides access to some advanced settings that control how an answering machine message is detected in preparation for it recording your message:

Property	Required/Optional	Default	Description
milliseconds min beep duration	optional	180	An integer. The minimum duration of a beep.
milliseconds post beep silence	optional	1000	An integer. Wait for this period of silence after the beep.
milliseconds no beep silence	optional	4000	An integer. Wait for this period of silence when no beep is detected.
seconds max message duration	optional	10	An integer. The maximum duration of an answering machine prompt message. Give up waiting for the answering machine prompt to complete after this period.

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

Property	Required/Optional	Default	Description
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 action will be returned via the subsequent http request to the next page in action result as follows:

Property	Description
seconds connected duration	A floating point value to one decimal place. The duration for which the two calls were connected.

Remarks

The connect action makes outbound (secondary) calls to all specified destinations. As soon as one is answered either it is immediately connected to the primary call or, if a secondary call first page is specified, the answered call's details are sent to it. Meanwile the other call attempts are dropped.

If classification with hang up on answering machine is enabled, destinations that are classified as "answering_machine" will also be dropped and listed in the dropped calls array sent to the secondary call's final page. Similarly, if classification with hang up on fax machine is enabled, destinations that are classified as "fax_machine" will also be dropped.

Setting the first page property allows the application to interact with the secondary call before it is connected as illustrated in the following diagram:

In this example a first page is specified that responds with a run menu action. The selected option's page then returns a further play action. Once this has completed the primary and secondary calls are connected.

When the secondary call goes idle its final page is requested. The this call property in the request contains details of the secondary call. Note: if the primary call hangs up, the secondary call is automatically hung up.

Subsequently the connect's next page is requested. The action result contains details of the connect. Note: If no next page is defined then the application continues with the next action in the action array.

If interaction with any of the secondary call's pages fails then a request is made to the secondary call's error page with a description of the issues.

Examples:

Make a call to a single destination, without classifying the callee, and connect it to the existing call:

"connect" :
{
    "destinations" : [ "441908273800" ],
    "call_from" : "441908273801",
    "next_page" : 
    {
        "url" : "connectNextPage"
    }
}

Once the connect action has finished the duration for which the two calls were connected is specified in the request for the next page:

"action_result" :
{
    "action" : "connect",
    "result" :
    {
        "seconds_connected_duration" : "47.3"
    }
}

Connect one of two calls, classifying the callee. If it is an answering machine wait for the message to finish but hang up if it's a fax machine:

"connect" :
{
    "destinations" : [ "441908273800", "441908273802" ],
    "call_from" : "441908273801",
    "hold_media" : { "play" : { "play_list" : [ { "file_to_play" : "welcome.wav" } ] } },
    "seconds_answer_timeout" : 30,
    "secondary_call" : 
    {
        "call_recording" : true,
        "minutes_max_call_duration" : 240
    },
    "classify_callee" :
    {
        "milliseconds_timeout" : 5000,
        "hang_up_on_answering_machine" : false,
        "hang_up_on_fax_machine" : true,
        "answering_machine_ready_to_record" :
        {
            "milliseconds_min_beep_duration" : 180,
            "milliseconds_post_beep_silence" : 1000,
            "milliseconds_no_beep_silence" : 4000,
            "seconds_max_message_duration" : 10
        }
    },
    "next_page" : 
    {
        "url" : "connectNextPage"
    }
}

Make two calls, requesting connectFirstPage when the first of the two calls is answered. Connect this call once all connectFirstPage's actions have run:

"connect" :
{
    "destinations" : [ "441908273800", "441908273802" ],
    "call_from" : "441908273801",
    "hold_media" : { "play" : { "play_list" : [ { "file_to_play" : "welcome.wav" } ] } },
    "seconds_answer_timeout" : 30,
    "secondary_call" : 
    {
        "call_recording" : true,
        "minutes_max_call_duration" : 240,
        "first_page" : "connectFirstPage",
        "final_page" : "connectFinalPage",
        "error_page" : "connectErrorPage"
    },
    "next_page" : 
    {
        "url" : "connectNextPage"
    }
}

API Reference:

The Connect class

Introduction

Represents a connect action.

Class synopsis

class Connect extends ActionBase {

    /* methods */
    public __construct()
    public void addDestination(string $dest)
    public void setCallFrom(string $from)
    public void setHoldMedia(Play $play)
    public void setSecondsAnswerTimeout(int $seconds)
    public void setClassifyCallee(ClassifyCalleeConfiguration $classify)
    public void setSecondaryCallConfiguration(SecondaryCallConfiguration $call_config)
    public void setNextPage(string $next_page, string $method = null)
}

The SecondaryCallConfiguration class

Introduction

Represents the secondary call configuration for a connect action.

Class synopsis

class SecondaryCallConfiguration {

    /* methods */
    public __construct()
    public void setCallRecording(boolean $record)
    public void setCallRecordingEncryption(boolean $encrypt)
    public void setMinutesMaxCallDuration(int $minutes)
    public void setFirstPage(string $first_page, string $method = null)
    public void setFinalPage(string $final_page, string $method = null)
    public void setErrorPage(string $error_page, string $method = null)
}

The ClassifyCalleeConfiguration class

Introduction

Represents the callee classification configuration for a connect action.

Class synopsis

class ClassifyCalleeConfiguration {

    /* methods */
    public __construct()
    public void setMillisecondsTimeout(int $milliseconds)
    public void setHangupOnFaxMachine(boolean $hangup)
    public void setHangupOnAnsweringMachine(boolean $hangup)
    public void setReadyToRecordConfiguration(
        int $milliseconds_min_beep_duration,
        int $milliseconds_post_beep_silence,
        int $milliseconds_no_beep_silence,
        int $seconds_max_message_duration
    )
}

The ConnectResult class

Introduction

Represents the result of a connect action.

Class synopsis

class ConnectResult extends ActionResult {

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

Examples:

Make a call to a single destination, without classifying the callee, and connect it to the existing call:

$connect = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Connect();
$connect->addDestination('441908273800');
$connect->setCallFrom('441908273801');
$connect->setNextPage('connectNextPage');

$actions->add($connect);

Obtain the duration for which the two calls were connected from the action's next page request:

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

Connect one of two calls, classifying the callee. If it is an answering machine wait for the message to finish:

$connect = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Connect();
$connect->addDestination('441908273800');
$connect->addDestination('441908273802');
$connect->setCallFrom('441908273801');
$connect->setHoldMedia(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::playFile('welcome.wav'));
$connect->setSecondsAnswerTimeout(30);
$connect->setNextPage('connectNextPage');

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

$classify_configuration = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\ClassifyCalleeConfiguration();
$classify_configuration->setMillisecondsTimeout(5000);
$classify_configuration->setHangupOnAnsweringMachine(false);
$classify_configuration->setAnsweringMachineReadyToRecordConfiguration(180, 1000, 4000, 10);
$connect->setClassifyCallee($classify_configuration);

$actions->add($connect);

Make two calls, requesting connectFirstPage when the first of the two calls is answered. Connect this call once all connectFirstPage's actions have run:

$connect = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Connect();
$connect->addDestination('441908273800');
$connect->addDestination('441908273802');
$connect->setCallFrom('441908273801');
$connect->setHoldMedia(Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\Play::playFile('welcome.wav'));
$connect->setSecondsAnswerTimeout(30);
$connect->setNextPage('connectNextPage');

$call_config = new Aculab\TelephonyRestAPI\SecondaryCallConfiguration();
$call_config->setMinutesMaxCallDuration(240);
$call_config->setRecord(true);
$call_config->setFirstPage('connectFirstPage');
$call_config->setErrorPage('connectErrorPage');
$call_config->setFinalPage('connectFinalPage');
$connect->setSecondaryCallConfiguration($call_config);

$actions->add($connect);
