Wazo Platform 20.13 Released

Hello Wazo Platform community!

Here is a short review of the Wazo Platform 20.13 release.

New features in this release

  • SIP lines and trunks: The SIP configuration API has been revamped to match the possibilities of the Asterisk PJSIP configuration file. The SIP general configuration has been removed in favor of a global configuration template for each tenant. Here is an article describing the changes done on lines and trunks. https://wazo-platform.discourse.group/t/wazo-20-13-how-trunk-works-now/567

  • SIP Templates: SIP endpoints (lines and trunks) can now inherit their configuration from templates. If you want to assign a given configuration to multiple lines, you can create a template with that given configuration and assign it to all the lines you want. If you ever decide to add a new option to that group of lines or if you wish to rollback that change, you can do it using the template. No more clicking on all users. If multiple templates are applied, for example "global", which is the SIP configuration that is meant to be used on all endpoints of a tenant, and "webrtc", then all options from the "global" template are used, then all options from the "webrtc" template are applied over the "global" template. Finally, the endpoint options will be applied over the options coming from the templates. This makes line endpoints very lightweight containing only a caller id in most cases.

  • Permissions and ACL: wazo-auth now makes it possible to remove permissions from a policy. This allows an administrator to create a new policy to remove permissions for a specific group of users instead of re-writing and maintaining a whole policy without the undesired permission.

  • Menu revamp: The menu as been revamped in wazo-ui.

  • Global settings: A global settings section has been added in wazo-ui to configure settings that are shared amongs all tenants.

  • Group members: Extensions can now be used as group members in wazo-ui

Bug fixes

  • Schedules: Schedules with no timezone defined prevented the call from being distributed.

Wazo Platform 20.12 Released

The Wazo Platform team

Hello Wazo Platform community!

Here is a short review of the Wazo Platform 20.12 release.

New features in this release

  • Conferences: until Wazo Platform 20.12, the only way to create conferences was to ask users to dial a specific extension pointing to a conference room. It is now possible to merge two or more existing calls together to create what we call an adhoc conference.

  • CTI: Wazo Platform offers an API to control physical phones. Until 20.12, Wazo Platform could mute, hangup or hold a call on a physical phone. There is now a new API to answer a physical phone call. This feature is currently only available for Yealink phones.

Bug fixes

  • Outcalls: if a user had set a custom music-on-hold on their account, the default system music-on-hold was being played anyway when the user placed an outcall on hold. Now it is the correct one that is used.

Ongoing features

  • SIP lines and trunks: We are currently rewriting the SIP configuration API to match PJSIP options and be multi-tenant.

For more details about the aforementioned topics, please see the changelog linked below.
