3CX API with PowerShell

[Togadude]

Hi all,

Anyone successfully using the 3CX Call Control API with PowerShell?
I've found some useful code on the forum, but I can't get it to work.

Config: 3CX Enterprise 15.5 on Windows 2016 Enterprise with PowerShell 5.1

The error I get is like this:


Thanks!

No takers yet?

I got some better results with calling the DLL with 'Add-Type' instead of 'System.Reflection.Assembly' using the following code:

Add-Type -Path "C:\Program Files\3CX Phone System\Instance1\Bin\3cxpscomcpp2.dll"

Requesting the properties like so:

[TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem].GetProperties()

returns the attributes, so on to connecting...

[TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem]::set_CfgServerHost("127.0.0.1")
[TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem]::set_CfgServerPort("5485")
[TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem]::set_CfgServerUser("cfguser_default")
[TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem]::set_CfgServerPassword("******")
[TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem]::set_ApplicationName("CallViewer")

All looking good.

However, when trying to instantiate an object like so:

$3CX = [TCX.Configuration.PhoneSystem]::get_Root()

it throws a "ConfigServer is not connected" right back at me...


Hopefully ringing any bells now?

Thanks!

Making progress, succeeded in connecting.
Even managed to load extension data in an object like this:

$Ext = $Tenant[0].GetExtensions() | where ID -eq 390

The following changes the last name of the user (instantly!)

$Ext.Lastname = "Doe"
$Ext.Save

However, the following code does nothing

$Ext.UserStatus = "Away"
$Ext.Save

Still plowing away...

Nice!

Did you get farther along in it?

Thank you!

However, the following code does nothing

$Ext.UserStatus = "Away"
$Ext.Save

I have no experience with running code from PowerShell, but a little experience with Visual Studio.

I don't know if this helps, but "UserStatus" does not accept a string as a value, but objects of type "UserStatusType" which is an enum class. Try assigning an int instead of a string, and I think the only 2 values are 0 = Available, 1 = Away.

No much more I can pitch in though....

Hi,

suddenly last night, we got this error:

2018-06-14 17:43:43,513 [4] INFO _3cxSync.PBX3cxConnector [(null)] - phonesystem.root connected voor aanvraag GETDN

Had been working perfectly ?

User/password are correct.

Could it be that there was a 3CX/windows update that causes this ?

Any idea on how to resolve this error ?

Hope you can help !
Danny

Hey Togadude,

just stumpled upon your post because i am trying to set up some routines started from powershell.
What can i say, you already assumed, it does not work for me.
I actually am only trying to get a sample running which makes a new phone book entry.

Do you have a simple (complete w/o passwords) example of how you get your code running?

Thank you very much for your efforts!
