how to see the call status in Vicidial via API?
0 0
There are 2 APIs to get the particular call status

First API to get the Call ID for specific agent's call

http://IP/admin/non_agent_api.php?source=SoftAPI&user=XXX&pass=XXX&function=agent_status&agent_user=XXX

Params:

function=agent_status
agent_user=--AGENT EXTENSION--
source=description of what originated the API call (maximum 20 characters)
user=with permission level >= 7 with report access


Second API to get the call status as per the above call id


http://IP/admin/non_agent_api.php?source=SoftAPI&user=XXX&pass=XXX&function=callid_info&call_id=XXX&detail=YES

function=callid_info
call_id=XXX (will get from above API)
detail=YES
agent_user=--AGENT EXTENSION--
source=description of what originated the API call (maximum 20 characters)
user=with permission level >= 7 with report access

To hangup the call, disposition it and then pause the agent, do the following in order:
http://server/agc/api.php?source=test&user=6666&pass=1234&agent_user=1000&function=external_pause&value=PAUSE
http://server/agc/api.php?source=test&user=6666&pass=1234&agent_user=1000&function=external_hangup&value=1
http://server/agc/api.php?source=test&user=6666&pass=1234&agent_user=1000&function=external_status&value=A
