How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hello Innovaphone,

How can we get secured credentials for PBX connection from client side. For example, our application use PbxUserTable and PbxSignal API. But on client side we’d like to provide only PbxSignalApi for softphone regestration. If we pass credentials from Pbx application object any user can get access to admin api. Also we do not have this settings, than mean, that we need admins to dublicate them for our application.

Thank you, Taras

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hi Taras,

the best way would be to forward the authentication to your app service / instance and calculate the digest there.

There is an example in the SDK docu that shows how this could be done.

http://sdk.innovaphone.com/doc/tutorials/RCCfromExternalWebPage.htm

Is this helpful?

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hi.

It's partially helps me to solve my problem.

Can you please tell me, how can I get PBX address from MyApp or on MyAppService side.

And one more question - how can I add parameters to UserInfo response.

Thank you

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hello Taras,

one possibility would be to use the com.innovaphone.client API. The URL of the (first and only) provider is the URL of the myApps client.

Example:

https : // host/PBX0/APPCLIENT/appclient.htm

If you remove everything after PBX0/ and add /APPS/websocket you get the URL to connect to.

https : // host/PBX0/APPS/websocket

I did this before with code like that:

var clientApi = start.consumeApi("com.innovaphone.client");
clientApi.onupdate.attach(function() {
var appWebsocketUrl = clientApi.model["@client"].url.split("/APPCLIENT/")[0] + "/APPS/websocket";
console.log("url=" + appWebsocketUrl);
});

With the UserInfo and the parameters I'm not sure what message you mean. Can you please explain?

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hi Niko,

can you show how you build the websocket URL inside javascript which you pass to Appwebsocket and also post the browser console trace with the complete URL (you can rightclick inside myApps and click "investigate" to open the browser console there)?

Greetings,

Daniel

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hi Niko,

you have a bit too much logic in creating the URL.

Basically you must simply replace the APPCLIENT with APPS/websocket, so that your URL (in the myApps windows client) looks e.g. like this:

wss://localhost:10008/appproxy/ext/your-pbx-dns/PBX0/APPS/websocket

In the browser it should be like this:

wss://your-pbx-dns/PBX0/APPS/websocket

There is no need to identify the localhost case in your javascript (btw. this could be also 127.0.0.1 on some systems ...) as the websocket request should be tunneled through the appproxy running in the client (certificate stuff etc.).

Daniel

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hi Daniel,

thanks for the hint

our solution now looks like this:

Byon.clientApi = start.consumeApi("com.innovaphone.client");

Byon.pbxUrl = Byon.pbxUrl || null;

Byon.app = Byon.app || _app;

Byon.connectionInfo = Byon.connectionInfo || _connectionInfo;

Byon.clientApi.onupdate.attach(function () {

var url = Byon.clientApi.model["@client"].url;

Byon.pbxUrl = "wss://" + new URL(url).host;

if (url.indexOf('localhost') > -1 || url.indexOf('127.0.0.1') > -1) {

var appUrl = url.split("/PBX0/")[0];

const urlObject = new URL(appUrl);

const wsUrl = "ws://" + urlObject.host + urlObject.pathname;

Byon.pbxUrl = wsUrl;

}

doStart();

});

What Do you think, meaningful ?

Best Regards

Niko

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

Hi Niko,

why do you still parse for localhost? It should be much easier and independent where your app actually runs:

var url = Byon.clientApi.model["@client"].url;
url = url.split("/APPCLIENT/")[0] + "/APPS/websocket";
url = "ws" + url.substring(4); // as url must always start with http and like this, you'll use either ws or wss

That's all for all usecases if I do not oversee something.

Daniel

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

In general it should be the same on iOS. But sometimes there are slight differences between browsers.

I'd recommend to open your app in the Safari Browser and use the Developer Tools of Safari to find out what is going wrong.

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App

You could activate browser traces in myApps iOS and download the trace.

Maybe it shows the problem.

Re: How to get PBX connection credentials to pass to client App
