I have (hopefully) a very simple question.
Is there a way of creating a call by UCWA?
When I say creating a call by UCWA, I mean that in my browser I will input a phone number and UCWA will first dial my number in my office and then when I pick up the phone I will hear dialing sound because I will be calling to the number provided on the website.
Is such a thing possible with UCWA? If not, can you recommend something else that could do it?
Thanks a lot for any answer.
I believe the feature you are referring to is named Call-Via-Work. The general idea being you supply the request ,startPhoneAudio, with a phoneNumber (telephone number), to (sip address of the contact) and a few additional parameters and Lync Server will call the to parameter and then connect it with the phoneNumber parameter. There is a caveat that the Lync Server must have a PSTN gateway for this interaction to function.
If this is acceptable you can take a look at the Interactive Demo and download the Samples SDK to see how the code would work (from JavaScript at least)
