VTX vPBX offers integration into several third-party systems. Customers wish to get contact information on incoming call and would like to do outgoing calls from their CRM As basis for integration into third-party products mostly Action URL and TAPI functions are required. Our Softclients support these functions with version > = 7.1
Softclients[edit | edit source]
Softclients are available for Microsoft Windows and MacOS operating system. Most of CRM using Microsoft Windows.
To setup Softclient refere to the configuration helper
- DesktopCommunicator

- DesktopCTI
Install the Softclient Same setup guide for all Softphones
Registry of CALLTO and TEL protocol[edit | edit source]
The softclient in most of cases automatically registers itself during the installation for the CALLTO and TEL protocols. This configuration can change due to the installation of other software.
Example based on Microsoft Windows 10

Set up hotkey[edit | edit source]
In order to enable an outgoing call from a third-party product, Softphones also offers a hotkey. By default it is set to Ctrl+F12 (Strg+F12) This function enables a marked number to be dialed via the Softclient. All characters that cannot be selected are automatically removed and the number normalized. It can get personalised to your needs
