General Overview

...


Application Usage 

Login to Wildix Collaboration inside MS Teams

Once users finish the setup process, you they can access the Wildix Application from the left side navigation panel.

The Application interface consists of three tabs:

  • Phone - integrated Collaboration plugin
  • Settings - PBX domain name. Before proceeding to Phone menu, add PBX domain name here and click Save
  • About - information about Wildix 

...

Note

Note: This mode requires Wildix Collaboration to be open in the browser or native app.

To use this mode and be able to control calls, you need to have a SIP device registered to your account.

...

You can also use Collaboration as a SIP device. For that, you need to activate call control mode (can be done only by an admin)

To enable it:

...

sidebar of the MS Teams interface by clicking on the Wildix icon.

The first time users open the Wildix tab, they are invited to enter the PBX domain name: 

Enter the PBX domain name into the input field and click Open.

Note

Users can change the PBX any time by opening the Wildix tab inside MS Teams and accessing the tab Settings. To change the PBX, first click to Remove the previous PBX and then enter the new PBX domain into the input field and click Save.


Once users have added the PBX, they need to log in to Wildix Collaboration (Phone tab of the Wildix app inside MS Teams):

As a rule, users would use the option "Login with Office 365 Sign-On": click on the Microsoft icon in the lower right-hand part of the screen. 

Use Collaboration Web Phone to control calls from MS Teams

To be able to control calls from MS Teams, users need a SIP device registered to their account. This can be a Wildix SIP phone for example, or a Wildix Collaboration Web Phone (place and receive calls directly from the browser).

To use Collaboration Web Phone as a SIP device, users need to activate Call control only option when logging to Collaboration inside MS Teams (see the previous screenshot - option Call Control only must be checked). This option allows users to control another Wildix Collaboration running in the browser or as a native app. 

Note

Prior to WMS version 5.03.20210709.3, the PBX admin should globally enable this option on the PBX so that it becomes available on the Collaboration login screen for users. 

To enable the Call control option, the admin of the PBX should:

  1. Connect to the PBX via SSH as a root user
  2. Edit the config file /rw2/etc/env.ini (or custom /rw2/etc/env.custom.ini for persistence) by setting the parameter CALL_CONTROL_FEATURE=true
  • A new option Call control appears on login window
  • Starting from WMS v 5v 5.03.20210709.3,  Collaboration Collaboration in MS Teams is loaded with automatically enabled Call control only mode enabled automatically.

    Connect to your Collaboration account in MS Teams:

    Warning

    Users who want to use Collaboration Web Phone to control calls from MS Teams need to have a second Collaboration running in the browser or as a native app.

    Control calls from MS Teams  

    Note

    In the first mode of teams4Wildix integration, users need to use the Wildix tab to manage calls, not the MS Teams dialpad (not the MS Teams Calls tab).

    For information regarding how to manage calls from the MS Teams dialpad, please consult the document MS Teams Phone System, which explains in detail how to set up and use the second mode of teams4wildix integration. 

    To start placing and receiving calls from MS Teams, users need to first select the active SIP device in the device selection list located next to the green Call button. This device can be a Wildix SIP phone, such as WelcomeConsole, Vision, SuperVision, Start, WorkForce, a W-AIR DECT headset or handset, iOS or Android Collaboration app, or it can be Web (which stands for Collaboration Web Phone - second Collaboration running in the browser or as a native app).

    Select the active device in the list of active devices

    ...

    in Wildix Collaboration:

    Other communication options

    In addition to the ability to manage calls, users can benefit from all other features offered by Wildix Collaboration, such as:

    • send and receive faxes and SMS
    • check Voicemails
    • set up call forwarding rules
    • and other, for more information, consult Collaboration User Guide.


    Note

    Note: Since MS Teams interface offers its own chat option, users are not supposed to use chat inside Wildix Collaboration to avoid confusion between the two systems. 

    Starting from WMS v 5.03.20210709.3, it is possible to disable chats in Collaboration:

    To disable chats, the PBX admin needs to:

    1. Connect to your PBX via SSH as a root user
    2. Edit the config file /rw2/etc/env.custom.ini by adding the parameter COLLABORATION_CHAT_ALLOW=false

    If disabled, users do not have access to Chat tab in Collaboration, including Chat and Post-It options in Colleagues, Feature keys, History tabs etc.
