Integration Server

An easy way to enhance your Asterisk dialplan

Integration Server

Integration Server (IS) is powerful application server that extends Asterisk dialplan functionality. It is specially designed to simplify access to the third party servers (e.g. database servers, email servers, payment servers, etc.) directly from the Asterisk dialplan.


Now you can easily test and execute database SQL queries, send emails, process credit cards and do much more from your dialplan using Visual Dialplan and Integration Server.


Integration Server comes with Visual Dialplan building blocks that provide intuitive interface to easily access those third party servers and service, like execute SQL queries on a remote database server (MS SQL, MySQL, Postgres, HSQL etc.), send emails, process payments and more, directly from within the dialplan. It also extends Visual Dialplan with fully featured SQL query editor, email template designer and payment editor.




How does it work

Technical view

Integration Server (IS) is standalone server application that communicates with Asterisk server through AGI (Asterisk Gateway Interface) and acts as an AGI server that completes AGI requests initiated from Asterisk dialplan. These AGI calls can be simple database queries (database IS module) but also quite complex billing and credit card processing requests (additional IS modules are required), or other advanced functionalities depending on the modules loaded in the Integration Server.


Connect to any database and SMTP email server directly from Asterisk dialplan.

Visual Dialplan deploys traditional extensions.conf code to the Asterisk server. In case the Integration Server functionality is required this code will contain AGI calls to Integration Server. At the same time, Visual Dialplan deploys resources to Integration Server required for those AGI calls.


When new call arrives at the Asterisk server the dialplan is executed and AGI request are sent to the IS. IS executes appropriate module (execute queries, send emails, process credit cards etc.) and returns resulting value and control back to the Asterisk dialplan.



User view

Visual Dialplan comes with an Integration Server view, this is where the connection to the IS should be defined.

Open this view and define a connection to the IS. Once the IS node is created, you can expand it and define connection to other servers and services supported by IS (e.g. DB server).

Now you are ready to use the appropriate building blocks to call that particular IS functionality from within the dialplan (DB building block from IS sheet in this case).

It is that simple.
