Jabber CSF Auto Creation

Yort Mantup

Level 4

Hello,

I am looking for a solution to share with our development team that will auto create a CSF device (Jabber) for every user that is assigned a phone/voicemail.  I would like this process to also assign the appropriate owner user ID to the CSF device as well and end user device association.    We currently have a solution developed internally that allows school front office staff to assign/remove a staff member from a phone that triggers the automated voicemail creation for that user using API.  I want to piggy back on this and also create the CSF Jabber account for the same user.  We do not use CUPS so no integration need there.  Looking for some material I can share with our development team to help get them started.  Thank you

I assume your currently developed solution is implemented with AXL, and you can use AXL to piggy back off the existing app.  Or you can simply create a script that uses AXL to look up every user who is assigned a phone/voicemail, and create a CSF device for each of those users. 

If you choose the latter, what I would recommend is that you start with a SQL query (executeSQLQuery in AXL) that gets the users you want and then step through them, adding and assigning CSF devices as you go, each named something based on the user's ID. For example, at Cisco, my user ID is npetrele.  So it would create CSFnpetrele and assign it to me.
