HTTP Events

 

ISL Online products send notifications when certain events occur. You can use these events for various purposes, e.g. save certain data to your database, respond to certain events through the XMLMSG interface etc.

ISL Pronto module on ISL Conference Proxy reports the following events through HTTP notifications:

  • START (triggered at the start of ISL Pronto chat session)
  • JOIN (triggered when a supporter or a customer joins the chat)
  • LEAVE (triggered when a supporter or a customer leaves the chat)
  • STOP (triggered when the last chat participant leaves)
  • MESSAGE (triggered when a chat message is submitted)

Each HTTP event notification consists of the following parameters:

  • TIMESTAMP (event creation timestamp in unix timestamp format)
  • MODULE (module name which created event - for ISL Pronto events it will be ISL_PRONTO)
  • EVENT (event name)
  • SERVERID (GRID ID number of server who created and sent event)
