Add a ‘Let Us Call You’ feature to your website using the Extend API and Ajax

This tutorial shows you how to add a ‘Let us call you’ feature on your website. When your customers enter their phone number, Switchvox calls their phone, and when they answer, Switchvox connects the call to you. The call can come to your customer-service call queue, an IVR, or even an external phone number.

You’ll need some experience in PHP and JavaScript to get this done, but I’ve included code samples to make it as easy as possible for you.

If you want to see the final product of this tutorial in action, then check out my Full Working Demo.

PHP Interface for Switchvox Extend API

If you are working in PHP, check out Digium’s official Switchvox Extend API PHP library. Click on the link below to get the install instructions.

If you’re familiar with PHP but would like to work in another language, you still might like to check out the PHP API so that you can quickly duplicate it in that other language. If you write a client library in a language that we don’t already have available, please tell us about it.

So Easy, A Business Major Can, Part 1

Howdy,

This morning, the voice in my head begins with ”Self, you’re not a programmer.  Do you remember that story about the guy whose resume said he had 10 years of C-language programming experience?”

“Yup, I remember, but didn’t it turn out that what he meant to say was that 10 years ago he once programmed in C?”

Voice in my Head:  “Yes.”

“So what’s your point?”

ViMH:  “My point is, that if you tell anyone you’re a programmer, then you’re going to be *that* guy.  So don’t do it.”

“Okay, okay, I get it.”

I’m not a programmer, I’m a business major.  I’m smart enough to configure Switchvox for anything I want to do, but I wasn’t really sure how I was going to take advantage of any of the new API capabilities in SMB 4.0.  To find out how difficult it would be to work with, I needed to contrive a problem, and solve it.  Read on to see what happened.
