Remote PhoneBook format for several models - aralmeida - 09-25-2019 01:23 PM

Hello,
we are trying to implement the Remote PhoneBook funcionality, but after reading several documentation files, we found that there are a number of diferent "formats".

We currently have the following models : T-19P, T-21 ,T-23P, T-23G ,T-28P ,T-28G ,T-38G.

Is there a way to build a Remote PhoneBook that uses several departments and displays a menu with their names allowing do better organize the phone numbers, and use that file for all these diferent phone models?

Thank you

I'm currently testing on a T-38G that gives an error loading the Remote PhoneBook file.
The formats i've found so far are:

Format 1 - Most Basic doesn't support multiple departments (similar to the one generated by Yealink RemotePhoneBook Generator)

RemotePhoneBook.xml
<YealinkIPPhoneDirectory>
<DirectoryEntry>
<Name>Jam</Name>
<Telephone>103</Telephone>
<Telephone>104</Telephone>
</DirectoryEntry>
<SoftKeyItem>
<Name>0</Name>
<URL> http://192.168.0.18:8000/Test1.xml </URL>
</SoftKeyItem>
</YealinkIPPhoneDirectory>


Format 2 - A Single file contains departments and phone numbers

RemotePhoneBook.xml
<YealinkIPPhoneBook>
<TITLE>YEALINK</TITLE>
<MENU Name="Sales">
<UNIT Name="Joe" default_photo="" Phone3="" Phone2="" Phone1="" />
</MENU>
</YealinkIPPhoneBook>

Format 3 - This format is composed of 2+ files menu.xml (contains menu for phone to display with departments and links to other files that contain only phone numbers) and several files each containing the phonebook for each department.
menu.xml
<YealinkIPPhoneMenu>
<Title>Company</Title>
<MenuItem>
<Name>Group 1</Name>
<URL> http://192.168.0.18:8000/Test.xml</URL>
</MenuItem>
<MenuItem>
<Name>Group 2</Name>
<URL> http://192.168.0.18:8000/YEALINK.xml</URL>
</MenuItem>
</YealinkPPhoneMenu>

Test.xml - similar to the first format
<YealinkIPPhoneDirectory>
<DirectoryEntry>
<Name>Jam</Name>
<Telephone>103</Telephone>
<Telephone>104</Telephone>
</DirectoryEntry>
<SoftKeyItem>
<Name>0</Name>
<URL> http://192.168.0.18:8000/Test1.xml </URL>
</SoftKeyItem>
</YealinkIPPhoneDirectory>

Can someone please shed some light on how to achieve multiple departments remote phonebook on all these models?

Thank you
