FlashText API

Allows user to send a text message to another user . If xivo-chat-backend package is installed messages can be persisted (even if user is disconnected).

A sample of implementation is available in app/assets/javascripts/pages/sampleFlashText.js and app/views/sample/sampleFlashText.scala.html

FlashText Methods

Introduction

All chat methods contains sequence number that allows you setting any value to correlate your command with the answer. Basically if you send 3 chat messages to 3 different users, you will be able to know which acknowledgment is related to which destination just by looking at this number.

Send chat message

Cti.sendFlashTextMessage(username, sequence_number, message)

Example :

Cti.sendFlashTextMessage("user", 24, "This is my message");

Retrieve chat history

Cti.getFlashTextPartyHistory(username, sequence_number)

Example :

Cti.getFlashTextPartyHistory("user", 24);
