Lesson 8. Integrate with IVR Applications

From lesson 4 to lesson 7, some methods of software integration are used. For example, lesson 4 shows launching an external program from an IVR application; lesson 5 shows invoking a Windows batch file; and lesson 6 shows submitting a form or uploading a file to a web server. But these examples all showing one direction: i.e., launching program from an IVR application. No data is send back to the IVR application for processing.

This lesson shows how to:

  • write a Java class for the IVR Java action
  • get and use the information returned from a Java or HTTP action

  6. Asks the caller to select a call list for the broadcast
     
  7. Start Voicent BroadcastByPhone with the recorded message and call list
