New and updated developer resources:
CCT .NET SDK
The CCT .NET SDK has been updated and reissued for use with Contact Center Release 6.3. New features include:
- A new set of APIs has been added that are primarily designed for the Avaya Aura Offsite Agent component. These APIs allow a client application to select a subset of resources to use in the session from those that are initially assigned to the session. Acquisition of the resources does not actually occur until the client application explicitly requests it, at which time any resources that had been marked for acquisition are acquired and all others dropped from the session (the client will not be allowed to use them).
- The CCT Toolkit tracing capabilities have been enhanced by the addition of a new custom trace listener that supports circular trace file logging and combining trace logs from multiple trace sources, making it easier for CCT applications to implement robust trace logging.
- A new TerminalAddressAssociation
TerminalProperty
has been created to indicate the addresses related to the terminal have changed.
- The Observe and Whisper APIs on the
IContact
interface have been modified to take an IConnectio
argument that identifies the agent being assisted. This change provides a linkage between the supervisor's connection and the agent's connection, such that the supervisor's connection can be automatically disconnected when the agent drops off the contact.
- New error code,
ConsultInHeldState
indicates a failure to complete a transfer or conference because the local call leg of the consult is in a held state.
- Previously, in AML Contact Center environments, the
ConnectionState.Disconnected
and TerminalConnectionState.Dropped
events generated for the consult contact when a conference is completed had an associated reason code of Reason.Default
in an AML Contact Center environment. These state change events now have an associated reason code of Reason.ConferenceComplete
. This behavior was already in place in a SIP environment.
Full details of the updates are available in the CCT SDK Programmers Reference Guide, included in the SDK download.
CCT SOAP-based Open Interfaces SDK
The SDK has been updated and reissued for use with Avaya Aura Contact Center Release 6.3 Service Pack 10. New features include:
- Improved support for High Availability configurations, facilitated by the use of a client TLS connection.

- Three new tutorials covering Java and Microsoft development environments:
- Using CXF
- Web Service Subscriptions
- Registering For Specific Agent Events
- Create Contact Answer Hold Unhold
- Detect Incoming Calls and Retrieve Information
CCT REST-based Open Interfaces SDK
The SDK was updated and reissued to include a documentation note regarding the need for the browser used to support cross domain requests. The CCT REST SDK is backwards compatible for use with all Avaya Aura Contact Center 6.x releases.
CCMM Web Communications Toolkit

- The Service Pack 11 releases introduces a new method,
IsSkillsetNameInService()
.
Full details of the updates are available in the Web Communications Software Development Kit Guide, included in the SDK download.
CCMS Real-time Data SDK
includes the new RtdView application, which can be used to help developers diagnose problems when connecting RTD-enabled applications to the CCMS Server. RtdView includes full logging support, including the ability to capture logging information to file in the same format as found on the CCMS Server. The application includes a simple RTD client for testing end-to-end RTD connections.
