Have you tried using Remote Agents?

[nani]

hi mflorell thanks for reply,here is my remote agent details:

UserID Start:nani(user level 9)
numberoflines:1
serverip:***.****.***.***
external extension:8400(phone extension)
status:ACTIVE
campaign:5555(outbound campaign)

i created like this ,the call is not going from outbound campaign,when i login with agent GUI by pressing activation button only calls are going from the campaign,

is anything i am missing in remote agent?

[mflorell]

What is the "activation button" you mention?

If you are using Remote Agents, you don't need to use the Agent screen GUI.

How many dialable leads are in this campaign?

[nani]

sorry for late reply ,i was stuck in some where.in campaign i have mensioned AMD action to" Y" and routing extension to "8327".in that extension i placed my prompt. i am learning vicidial for my job can you pleace help me with this.i have inserted leads in list using API now everything working fine but how to create remote agent for outbound
campaign automatic call going to client.with out agent login and press active button.(i loded 20 numbers to list)

[mflorell]

There are several problems with your setup, have you read the Manager Manual and followed the tutorials?

[nani]

yes i read manager manual,for default AMD routing extension is 8328 .insted of that i am routing to 8327 in that i placed my prompt after playing the prompt i am hanhuping the call.without moving to ;exten => 8367,n,AGI(agi-VDAD_ALL_outbound.agi,NORMAL-----LO.) .All i want to know is how to automate the outbound campaign with out agent login .

like for pausing and logout we have API right ,we have one api for activating outbound campaign (like you said remote agent )

If i am thinking wrong, please currect Me .

[mflorell]

8328 is not a default valid routing extension, here's the list of valid routing extensions from the HELP:

- 8364 - same as 8368
- 8365 - Will send the call only to an agent on the same server as the call is placed on
- 8366 - Used for press-1, broadcast and survey campaigns
- 8367 - Will try to first send the call to an agent on the local server, then it will look on other servers
- 8368 - DEFAULT - Will send the call to the next available agent no matter what server they are on
- 8369 - Used for Answering Machine Detection after that, same behavior as 8368
- 8373 - Used for Answering Machine Detection after that same behavior as 8366
- 8374 - Used for press-1, broadcast and survey campaigns with Cepstral Text-to-speech
- 8375 - Used for Answering Machine Detection then press-1, broadcast and survey campaigns with Cepstral Text-to-speech


No, there is currently no API function for controlling Remote Agents.

If you want to activate a Remote Agent (which is defined as "An agent who has NO computer, just a phone"), yes. In fact, a simple mysql query will change "inactive" to "active" quite easily.

If you want to change an agent from "logged in but paused" to "logged in and active", this is also possible. But it doesn't sound like what you want.

Hi william,thank for replay.i am loading leads into table and i am playing dynamic prompt based on mobile number .In campaign section i set AMD action Y and routing extension to 8379 ,i created this extension and agi to play dynamic prompt. please advice me when ever the leads pushed into list ,the outbound call has to go automatically without agent

[williamconley]

"Without agent" is impossible. Technically. But a "Remote agent" can activate a campaign, even if the call never gets to that remote agent (who doesn't really exist).

Thus you would probably do well to look up "Remote Agent" in the Vicidial Manager's Manual and see what a Remote Agent is and how to create one to activate your campaign.

[nani]

UserID Start:nani(user level 9)
numberoflines:1
serverip:***.****.***.***
external extension:8400(phone extension)
status:ACTIVE
campaign:5555(outbound campaign)

i created like this ,the call is not going from outbound campaign,

[williamconley]

Once you have a fully functional dialer, switching from "logged in agent" to "remote agent" is relatively simple. But you gotta have a functional dialer first.

Start at the beginning of page one of the Vicidial Manager's Manual. Don't skip anything. When everything you want to work "works", you're done. But if you skipped around trying to make things work ... start over.

In other words: If you have not yet made Vicidial work normally (with a logged in agent), then it also won't work with a remote agent.

(Or: Before you learn to be a stunt driver ... you gotta learn to drive! lol)

[nani]

when the agent login and press activation button the calls are going ,like above i have created remote agent ,now calls are not going,can tell me is there anything i missed.
I read manager manual and created the remote agent,but why the calls are not going out.

[williamconley]

In both cases, the view of the Real Time Screen should be the same: The agent will show as "READY" when they are active and not on a call. So, does your Remote Agent show as "Ready"?

Was the logged in agent in the same campaign as the remote agent?

And it's also time for this:

1) Welcome to the Party!

2) As you are obviously new here, I have some suggestions to help us all help you:

When you post, please post your entire configuration including (but not limited to) your installation method (7.X.X?) and vicidial version with build (VERSION: 2.X-XXXx ... BUILD: #####-####).

This IS a requirement for posting along with reading the stickies (at the top of each forum) and the manager's manual (available on EFLO.net, both free and paid versions)

You should also post: Asterisk version, telephony hardware (model number is helpful here), cluster information if you have one, and whether any other software is installed in the box. If your installation method is "manual/from scratch" you must post your operating system with version (and the .iso version from which you installed your original operating system) plus a link to the installation instructions you used. If your installation is "Hosted" list the site name of the host.

If this is a "Cloud" or "Virtual" server, please note the technology involved along with the version of that techology (ie: VMware Server Version 2.0.2). If it is not, merely stating the Motherboard model # and CPU would be helpful.

Similar to This:

Vicibox X.X from .iso | Vicidial X.X.X-XXX Build XXXXXX-XXXX | Asterisk X.X.X | Single Server | No Digium/Sangoma Hardware | No Extra Software After Installation | Intel DG35EC | Core2Quad Q6600
