06 Line
Browser SDK

Phone

The connection, the lines, the devices, and the calls of the page.

Properties

Prop

Type

Methods

call(options)

Places a call and resolves with the Call as soon as it is created, before it rings. Call it from a user action (a click): browsers only allow the microphone and sound after one.

Prop

Type

Devices and volumes belong to the call and can change during it: see Call.

Rejects with line_offline, line_busy, invalid_number, microphone_denied, microphone_not_found or, when output is set in Safari, not_supported.

devices()

Resolves with { inputs: MediaDeviceInfo[]; outputs: MediaDeviceInfo[] }. Device labels are empty until the user has granted microphone access once.

Use it to fill device pickers, then pass the chosen ids to call() or answer(). phone.canChooseOutput tells whether the browser can pick a speaker (false in Safari), so you can hide that picker.

testMicrophone(options?)

Plays the microphone back half a second later, through the same processing as a call, so the user can check a device and a volume before calling. Takes input, output, inputVolume and outputVolume like call(). Returns { stop(): void }.

connect() / disconnect()

Open or close the WebRTC session. disconnect() hangs up the call in progress.

Events

phone.on(event, handler) returns a function that removes the handler.

Prop

Type

Line is the object of the API, with camelCase keys. SMS are not in the SDK: they reach your server through webhooks.
