Hi,
I'm coming from a background of having developed a CTI OS application which gathered information about agents and skill groups, including the names of both, and used these along with other call data (such as call variables and ECC variables) to update an external database.
With the introduction of Finesse (to replace CTI OS as it is EOL?) my first instinct was to move to Finesse to do what my application currently does via CTI OS but a document in the Finesse community suggested that attempting to monitor every agent from a single XMPP connection was an untested and therefore unsupported operation so I continued to search for another alternative which is when I found the DevNet section about the CTI Protocol.
Looking through Version 16 of the CTI Protocol specification, I cannot see any mention of agent name or skill group name. There is a passing reference to first name and last name as being floating fields for a CONFIG_AGENT_EVENT message but the specification does not describe the CONFIG_AGENT_EVENT message.
In CTI OS I primarily used the AgentInfoEvent and SkillInfoEvents to obtain the names of the agent/skillgroup but I cannot find an equivalent in the CTI protocol. I was under the impression from elsewhere in the communities that CTI OS and Finesse were built on top of the CTI protocol so assumed that this information would be readily available.
Can anyone advise if I am missing something obvious? Is there a separate interface from which this sort of information can be gathered (if so what interface and please point me at the specification on DevNet).
Cheers.
