FreePBX Contact Manager to Yealink Address Book

@cinergi said in FreePBX Contact Manager to Yealink Address Book:
One question: what is the purpose of the "label=" in the <Telephone> XML tag? This is not documented in Yealink's XML documentation, and although the script generates it properly for Home, Work, Mobile, and Other, my SIP-T29G phone seems to ignore it and instead indicates multiple numbers as Number1, Number2, etc. which is not great. I wish it used the tags. Do other Yealink phones support this?
Those labels started in some version of the phones, yes. I know it works in the T4 series and the T5 series.

I made a small change to remove all non-numeric characters from phone numbers (like +, (), - , etc.), otherwise my Yealink phone doesn't dial the number properly from the directory.
How are you getting bad data in the directory to being with? At least I would consider that bad data in the source.
Are you using Contact Manager? If so, someone had to put those extra characters in there.

Hi, I'm testing in a lab environment for now, I have followed the instructions and created a internal contact manager group calling Internal, I have added one contact into it with an extension. When I browse to the cm_to_yl_ab.php file it gives the following error: -
This page contains the following errors:
error on line 3 at column 22: Opening and ending tag mismatch: CompanyIPPhoneDirectory line 0 and DirectoryEntry
Below is a rendering of the page up to the first error.In a red box with nothing else shown, I have rebooted the pbx but same thing, can you advise.
Thanks in advance.

Make sure you have one entry in Contact Manager. I never designed it to handle zero contacts.
There is an issue posted on that already, but I have not had the free time to work on it.

Thanks for the quick reply, it makes sense I’ll populate with a number and try again.

I am having some problems implementing the script.
I have followed the direction to install it in /var/www/html
Ran chown
Edited the script to set the $contact_manager_group to Clients - which I have made in FreePBX v15.0.17.24 - Asterisk V16.15.0
I have loaded one contact into this group
When I execute the script by navigating to http://10.0.0.120/cm_to_yl_ab.php I recieve the error:
PDOException (21000)
SQLSTATE[21000]: Cardinality violation: 1242 Subquery returns more than 1 rowAny advice would be awesome
Cheers

@enaran execute the SQL from command line and post the results
-
@jaredbusch thank you.
I posted the SQL at the command line and it returned the same error.I figured it out though as I seemed to have a Clients group in both the External and Private Contact Manager Areas - hence the return of two records in the subquery.
I deleted the Clients Group from the Private area leaving just the one in the External area, and it started working.
Cheers

Jared,
This has been working so well!
I bet you were waiting for this question which is, can a second instance be run so we have two directories listed, one for the internal phonebook and a second for example external suppliers (Using the external phonebook in contact manager?
Thanks so much

If you update to the current version, it accepts a parameter for the group name. So you can different directories on different buttons or say, per site.

Good afternoon, is it possible to output two groups in one xml?

Not as currently designed, but yes.

@jaredbusch
The development is super. I would also like to add the union of two different groups from internal and Extension into one xml and you can assign only one button, there will be fire. -
Jared,
Hi, I have just received found the yealink handset is no longer receiving the phonebook, I navigated to the link http://my pbx domain.com/cm_to_yl_ab.php and the page showed 403 Forbidden, You don't have permission to access /cm_to_yl_ab.php on this server.
I have in the past seen the XML information on this page.
Any Ideas?
Thanks

Hello,
First of all, let me thank you for your wonderful work. This made our lives much easier...
If you don't mind, I would like some help: I'm running this script on 2 FreePBX machines, both are practically the same. On one machine, I have no problems viewing contacts with more than one number (In both the XML file and on the phone itself).
However, on the other machine, I can only see on phone number for each contact, even if they have more than one phone number, again, it happens both when I visit the XML file directly from a browser and on the phones.
I can't think of any difference between both the pbx's.I'd appreciate your help and I'll be happy to provide additional details, logs, info, etc..
Thanks a lot!
