Hello,

The Plum IVR system is capable of dialing internationally. Please make sure that the call queue you are pushing calls into has been started. You can see the call queue status on the IVR "Outbound Tools" page of the Plum IVR Hosting site. You should also be able to see the status of each of the IVR calls you have queued by viewing the queue on that same page. Finally you appear to be dialing using the UK format for international numbers, please make sure you are pushing to the IVR call queue system in the UK: http://outbound-uk.plumgroup.com

Regards,
Plum Support

This IVR oubound call is being dialed from the US, so you should try dialing the following:

011 92 302 5055 886

Assuming you have been given access to the UK IVR outbound system, there are two different queues with two different URLs you can POST your requests to:

Code: Select all

http://outbound.plumgroup.com/webservice/queuecall.php

Code: Select all

http://outbound-uk.plumgroup.com/webservice/queuecall.php

If you queue to the first URL you need to make sure that your dial string is formatted for US international calling: 011923025055886. When queuing to the second URL you should make sure it is formatted for UK international calling: 00923025055886. Please double check which queue you are using, they are listed in the drop down box on the IVR outbound tools page of your IVR hosting account.

That error is not an IVR error. That 405 is coming back from your web server. It's likely because the control parameters for the outbound call are being POSTed to that URL. Since your URL appears to be a static .xml file, your web server is probably refusing to accept POST vars.

You need to use a script that can process POST vars as your start_url.

The number called by the outbound IVR system will be stored in the session.telephone.ani IVR session variable.

You should inspect both the IVR logs for those IVR calls as well as the IVR logs for your web server. Without any such information, we can not determine the root cause of the IVR problem you're experiencing. It should be noted however, that, given the fact that IVR outbound calling IS working for the first URL listed, the IVR problem is likely something related to your web server.
