The setup consists of two parts: VoxEngine cloud setup and the widget's source code setup.

VoxEngine setup

  1. Create an application.
  2. Create a user to log in to the widget.
  3. Create a scenario for the microphone check. Copy this code into your scenario and save it:

Microphone check scenario

  1. Create another scenario for the call itself. You can call a phone number, a Voximplant user, or a SIP address. Depending on your destination, copy the suitable code example into your scenario.

Use this code if you are going to call a user:

Destination — a Voximplant user

Destination — a Voximplant user

Use this code if you are going to call a phone number:

Caller ID notice

If you want to call a phone number, you need a verified Caller ID. You can buy a phone number from Voximplant or use any phone number that is verified via an automated call from Voximplant and confirmation code.

  1. Make a routing rule for the microphone testing scenario. Set the mask pattern to testmic and place the rule on the top.
  2. Make another routing rule for the call scenario. Place the rule below the microphone testing scenario.

The VoxEngine setup is done, now start with the widget itself.

Application setup

  • Fill the testmic string to the VUE_APP_TEST_NUMBER property.

  1. Run yarn serve or npm run serve to run the development build.
  2. Open the http://localhost:8080/ URL to test the application.
