int
ACSInitializeUploads(const char * _campaign);
Use this routine to
alert DscACS that wave & phone files are going to be uploaded for possible
distribution to associates. This need
not be called if ACSUploadWaveFile() and ACSUploadPhonesFile() are going to be
called for local server dialing (ACSAPI_BT_LOCAL). However, if phones are uploaded with
ACSAPI_BT_MIX/ACSAPI_DISTRIBUTE, and ACSUploadWaveFileProvisional() are being
called, then this routine is necessary for correct operations.
int
ACSUploadWaveFile(const char * _targetIPAddr,
const char * _campaign,
const char * _inputWavePath,
const char * _outputWaveName);
int ACSUploadWaveFileProvisional(const
char * _targetIPAddr,
const char * _campaign,
const char * _inputWavePath,
const char * _outputWaveName);
ACSUploadWaveFile() immediately loads the wave file into
the dialer for processing – ACSUploadWaveFileProvisional() stores the file(s)
pending Associate distribution decision making. Call ACSInitializeUploads() before using the provisional routine.
The sound files are untouched – conversion to 8-bit mono is
still a manual process at this point.
int
ACSUploadPhonesFile(const char * _targetIPAddr,
const char * _campaign,
const char * _inputPhonesPath,
const int _blastType,
const int _messageLength,
const int _emergency);
_blastType can be:
- ACSAPI_BT_LOCAL
– Dialing will be performed by the local Pacer system only.
- ACSAPI_BT_DISTRIBUTE
– DscACS will search the Associates file for appropriate destinations for
outsourcing the dial. If none are
found/available, then local Pacer system dialing will proceed, if
possible.
- ACSAPI_BT_MIX
– Similar to _DISTRIBUTE, except DscACS will check to see if the local
dialer has the capacity to handle the blast before looking for
Associates. This is the only type
which uses the argument “_messageLength,” for blast length calculation
purposes.
The _targetIPAddr is returned after
executing ACSConnect(), so this must be saved to use these
routines.
