How to use the Aircall Everywhere in any CRM ?
Include this project in your dependency
npm install -s aircall-everywhere
Constructor
You need to create an instance to use the library. The constructor has a settings argument:
onLogin: Callback function after the workspace is fully loaded, logged in, and the connexion between the workspace and the CRM is established. This callback will triggers everytime the user logs again. User details and integration settings if any are passed as parameters.
onLogout: Callback function after the user logs out of the workspace. It will triggers everytime the user logs out.
integrationToLoad: You can specify a CRM from which specific settings can be retrieved. Only zendesk or hubspot available for now. You can ignore this if you have your own CRM.
domToLoadWorkspace: You must specify in which element you want to load the workspace. Query selector string.
size: You can specify a preset for the size of the workspace loaded. 3 possibilities:
big: 666px by 376px. Recommanded and default value
small: 600px by 376px
auto: 100% width and height. Not recommanded.
debug: Enables or disables logging. Defaults to true
Example:
import AircallWorkspace from 'aircall-everywhere';
const aircallWorkspace = new AircallWorkspace({
onLogin: (settings) => {
console.log('workspace loaded');
doStuff();
},
onLogout: () => {},
domToLoadWorkspace: '#workspace',
integrationToLoad: 'zendesk',
size: 'big',
});
Settings passed in the onLogin callback contains info about the user and integration and looks like this:
{
user: {
email: 'john@company.com',
first_name: 'John',
last_name: 'Smith',
company_name: 'Super Company Inc'
},
settings: {
<specific_integration_settings>
}
}
isLoggedIn method
In addition to the onLogin and onLogout callbacks, a isLoggedIn method is provided that will directly asks the workspace about its status. The result is a boolean.
Example:
aircallWorkspace.isLoggedIn((res) => {
console.log('login status:', res);
});
on & send
You can send messages to the workspace and listen messages coming from it.
events from the workspace:
All events from the workspace with the payload associated:
incoming_call: there is an incoming call, ringing.
{
from: '+15557543010',
to: '+15551234567',
call_id: 12345
}
call_end_ringtone: the ringtone has ended. This event is only triggered for incoming calls.
{
answer_status: 'answered | disconnected | refused',
call_id: 12345
}
outgoing_call: an outgoing call has started
{
from: '+15557543010',
to: '+15551234567',
call_id: 12345
}
outgoing_answered: an outgoing call has been answered
{
call_id: 12345;
}
call_ended: a call has been ended
{
duration: 20,
call_id: 12345
}
comment_saved: a comment has been saved about a call
{
comment: 'This is a comment',
call_id: 12345
}
external_dial: a dial has been made from outside of the workspace (api/extension)
{
phone_number: '+15557543010';
}
powerdialer_updated: a powerdialer campaign has been updated (via extension). There is no payload.
redirect_event: event coming from specific CRM settings if it has been enabled in the Aircall Dashboard. Only zendesk and hubspot is supported for now. This event data has this schema:
{
type: 'Zendesk::User' | 'Zendesk::Ticket'
id: <userId> | <ticketId>
}
call_id parameter is a number per call.
duration is in seconds.
All numbers are sent in the e.164 format.
Example:
aircallWorkspace.on('incoming_call', (callInfos) => {
console.log(`Call from ${callInfos.from} to ${callInfos.to}`);
doStuff();
});
events the workspace listens to:
Example:
aircallWorkspace.send('dial_number', { phone_number: number }, (success, data) => {
console.log('success of dial:', success);
});
The callback of the send method has two arguments:
- success of the request
- if the request is successful, data from the response sent by the workspace
- if the request is not successful, an error object with an error code and error message:
All generic errors from send:
no_event_name: the event name sent is not valid
not_ready: Workspace is not loaded or logged in yet
no_answer: Workspace didn't answer, most likely not logged in
does_not_exists: The event sent does not exists
invalid_response: Workspace sent an malformed answer, should not happen
unknown_error: Should not happen
List of events:
-
dial_number: with {phone_number: <number>} argument, you can ask the workspace to dial the number.
Specific errors for this event:
in_call: Workspace is on a call, retry after the call is ended
-
exit_keyboard: with no argument, you can ask the workspace to exit the keyboard view if it is on.
Specific errors for this event:
in_call: Workspace is on a call, retry after the call is ended
not_in_keyboard: Workspace is not on keyboard screen, so it can't exit the keyboard :D

removeListener method
You can remove a listener added by on with this method.
<iframe> authorizations
Please be aware that aircall-everywhere will generate an iframe with following allow attributes.
<iframe
allow="microphone; autoplay; clipboard-read; clipboard-write; hid"
src="https://workspace.aircall.io?integration=generic"
style="height:100%; width:100%;"
>
</iframe>
If you need to embed aircall-everywhere in an <iframe> you own, please be sure to propagate the allow attributes like so
<iframe src="your src here" allow="camera; microphone; clipboard-read; clipboard-write; hid">
<iframe
allow="microphone; autoplay; clipboard-read; clipboard-write; hid"
src="https://workspace.aircall.io?integration=generic"
style="height:100%; width:100%;"
>
</iframe>
</iframe>
The clipboard API is not accessible through <iframe> since Chrome v81 and a policy has been added since Chrome v85. That's why aircall-everywhere needs these attributes. More info here.
