Tutorial: Using Loops & Functions in your Tropo applications
Monday, April 26th, 2010Hello,
This afternoon I got a ticket over here at the Fortress of Solitude, err I mean Voxeo Support that I thought I would share with the class. This developer opened a ticket asking how to implement control document execution in his applications. In short he was looking to prompt his callers, in a loop, and stay in said loop until the user explicitly opts to hung up, or proceed with the call. This developer was stuck on whether or not he would have to explicitly repeat the ask() with each iteration.
Tutorial: Click-to-Call applications (w/ conferencing)
Saturday, April 24th, 2010Hello,
A great use of Token initiated calls, or calls initiated via HTTP request, are click to call applications. This is when you have a fancy button on your website and can have your customers simply ‘click to call’ your call center. This allows them to get right to the people they need quickly and effectively, but how do you do it? Well over here at the ‘Halls of Justice’, sorry I mean Tropo Support we get this a lot. This being the case I have gone ahead and put together a nice example to show you just how to put a click to call application together!
