Making a Common Outbound Call

Prerequisites

• The agent has signed in.
• The agent is not answering any call (except a held call).
• To use the unidirectional video capability to specify the user video direction, for example, the user only receives but does not send videos, or the user only sends but does not receive videos, you have logged in to the CDE of the UAP9600 and run the following MML commands to check and modify the related parameter.
  1. Check whether both Bit and Bit Value of the software parameter P978 are set to 0.

     LST SFP: ID=P978;

  2. If no, run the following command to modify the parameter:

     MOD SFP: ID=P978, MODTYPE=P1, BIT=0, BITVAL=0;

  Table 3 Parameters in the message body

  No.	Parameter	Value Type	Mandatory (Yes/No)	Description
  1	caller	String	No	Calling number. The value can be empty. If the value is empty, the default calling number of the platform is used. The value can contain a maximum of 24 digits.
  2	called	String	Yes	Called number. The value cannot be empty and can contain 1 to 24 characters, including only digits, asterisks (*), and number signs (#).
  3	skillid	Integer	No	Skill ID. It is in numeral format and can be empty. If the value is empty, the default skill queue ID preconfigured by the platform is used.

  5	mediaability	Integer	No	Media capability. The default value is 0. The options are as follows: 0: audio; 1: video; 2: A default outbound call is made based on the negotiation between the host and the terminal. NOTE: When a video call is switched to a voice call, the call will be directly disconnected after being answered because media negotiation fails. You are advised to set mediaability to 2 (call with the maximum capability) for video outbound calls.
  6	userVideoDirection	Integer	No	User video direction. The options are as follows: 1: The user only receives videos but does not send videos. 2: The user only sends videos but does not receive videos. 3: The user sends and receives videos. 4: The receiving and sending directions are not set.

Response Description

Triggered Event

• AgentOther_PhoneAlerting
• AgentOther_PhoneOffhook
• AgentState_Busy
• AgentEvent_Customer_Alerting
• AgentEvent_Talking
• AgentEvent_Call_Out_Fail
• OUTBOUND_DETECT_EVENT

If P18 is set to 1 (default value: 0) on the Web Configuration Console > System Configuration > Advanced Parameter > Software Parameter page, the agent outbound call flow changes the agent status to working and then connects to the agent's phone. When the outbound call agent fails to be occupied (the agent status does not change to working), the system directly returns a message indicating that the outbound call fails and no longer connects to the agent's phone. In this case, the following events are not triggered:

• AgentOther_PhoneAlerting
• AgentOther_PhoneOffhook
