Integrating with VICIDIAL Dialler

Modified on Thu, 9 Jul at 3:30 PM

What You'll Need

  • The IP address or hostname of your dialler.
  • Your admin username.
  • Your admin password.
  • A list ID in the dialler (defaults to 999 if not supplied).
  • The source to attribute records to (flg is fine).

Contact the Connex customer support team to obtain these.

Important: You may also need Connex support to whitelist FLG's IP addresses so we can reach your dialler. Contact us to get this list.


Setting Up the Integration

In FLG, add a webhook as a lead type action:

  • Go to Settings > Lead Groups > Lead Types and edit the relevant lead type.
  • In the Actions section, click Add New Action.
  • Choose Webhook.
  • Click the red Click to Configure button.
  • Choose the webhook type - Connex Dialler (New Lead) or Connex Dialler (Change Status) - and enter your dialler details.
  • Click Apply Settings.
  • Choose the event to trigger the action (e.g. Received creates a lead in the dialler as soon as it's received in FLG).
  • Click Update to save the webhook.


Important Things to Know

  • Using webhooks on different events (with conditions) lets you send leads to the dialler only at a certain status - e.g. event status changed with condition status is the value Interested.
  • First name, last name, phone number, alternative phone number, address, town/city and postcode are always passed across.
  • The FLG phone number maps to phone_number; the alternative number maps to alt_phone.
  • FLG's lead ID (our reference number) is saved in the vendor_lead_code field.
  • We send 44 as the phone_code, so the Connex integration only supports UK phone numbers.
  • Queue priority sets the urgency for calling the record in the dialler, from 1 to 99 (99 = top priority).
