The Jacada Interaction Server protocols are designed to exchange requests and responses, which are defined for the purposes of this guide to be the implemented API Methods. The methods described are used to access information from a specific Interaction that is currently being run by a customer. This information provides the agent with details that are necessary to assist the customer to complete the Interaction successfully and efficiently. Choices selected by the customer, photos uploaded, and specific variables can all be exposed to the agent.

The Interaction Server exposes several web services to retrieve Interaction data, based on the Interaction Unique Identifier. This identifier is a number (generated either by the Interaction Server or the customer’s application) which uniquely identifies the current Interaction of an end user.

When the end user dials to the call center from a Jacada Interaction Server mobile client, the Interaction Unique Identifier is added to the call phone number. For example, in the number 1-800-123-456,959595, 959595 is the Unique Identifier.

The API methods include:

•Get Full Interaction Flow: Retrieves the content of a specific Interaction.

•Get User Variable Set: Retrieves a list of variables included in a defined user variable set.

•Get Interaction Photo: Retrieves content of an image uploaded in a specified Interaction.
