Quickstart: Join your calling app to a Teams call queue

Article
10/03/2024

In this quickstart you're going to learn how to start a call from Azure Communication Services user to Teams Call Queue. You're going to achieve it with the following steps:

Enable federation of Azure Communication Services resource with Teams Tenant.
Select or create Teams Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.
Get email address of Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.
Get Object ID of the Call Queue via Graph API.
Start a call with Azure Communication Services Calling SDK.

If you'd like to skip ahead to the end, you can download this quickstart as a sample on GitHub.

Enable interoperability in your Teams tenant

Microsoft Entra user with Teams administrator role can run PowerShell cmdlet with MicrosoftTeams module to enable the Communication Services resource in the tenant.

1. Prepare the Microsoft Teams module

First, open the PowerShell and validate the existence of the Teams module with the following command:

Get-module *teams*

If you don't see the MicrosoftTeams module, install it first. To install the module, you need to run PowerShell as an administrator. Then run the following command:

	Install-Module -Name MicrosoftTeams

You'll be informed about the modules that will be installed, which you can confirm with a Y or A answer. If the module is installed but is outdated, you can run the following command to update the module:

	Update-Module MicrosoftTeams

2. Connect to Microsoft Teams module

When the module is installed and ready, you can connect to the MicrosftTeams module with the following command. You'll be prompted with an interactive window to log in. The user account that you're going to use needs to have Teams administrator permissions. Otherwise, you might get an access denied response in the next steps.

Connect-MicrosoftTeams

3. Enable tenant configuration

Interoperability with Communication Services resources is controlled via tenant configuration and assigned policy. Teams tenant has a single tenant configuration, and Teams users have assigned global policy or custom policy. For more information, see Assign Policies in Teams.

After successful login, you can run the cmdlet Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration to enable Communication Services resource in your tenant. Replace the text IMMUTABLE_RESOURCE_ID with an immutable resource ID in your communication resource. You can find more details on how to get this information here.

$allowlist = @('IMMUTABLE_RESOURCE_ID')
Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration -EnableAcsUsers $True -AllowedAcsResources $allowlist

4. Enable tenant policy

Each Teams user has assigned an External Access Policy that determines whether Communication Services users can call this Teams user. Use cmdlet Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy to ensure that the policy assigned to the Teams user has set EnableAcsFederationAccess to $true

Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy -Identity Global -EnableAcsFederationAccess $true

Create or select Teams Call Queue

Teams Call Queue is a feature in Microsoft Teams that efficiently distributes incoming calls among a group of designated users or agents. It's useful for customer support or call center scenarios. Calls are placed in a queue and assigned to the next available agent based on a predetermined routing method. Agents receive notifications and can handle calls using Teams' call controls. The feature offers reporting and analytics for performance tracking. It simplifies call handling, ensures a consistent customer experience, and optimizes agent productivity. You can select existing or create new Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.

Learn more about how to create Call Queue using Teams Admin Center here.

Find Object ID for Call Queue

After Call queue is created, we need to find correlated Object ID to use it later for calls. Object ID is connected to Resource Account that was attached to call queue - open Resource Accounts tab in Teams Admin and find email. Screenshot of Resource Accounts in Teams Admin Portal. All required information for Resource Account can be found in Microsoft Graph Explorer using this email in the search.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/lab-test2-cq-@contoso.com

In results we'll are able to find "ID" field

    "userPrincipalName": "lab-test2-cq@contoso.com",
    "id": "31a011c2-2672-4dd0-b6f9-9334ef4999db"

Prerequisites

Obtain an Azure account with an active subscription. Create an account for free.
Node.js Active LTS and Maintenance LTS versions (8.11.1 and 10.14.1)
Create an active Communication Services resource. Create a Communication Services resource.

Setting up

Create a new Node.js application

Open your terminal or command window create a new directory for your app, and navigate to the directory.

mkdir calling-quickstart && cd calling-quickstart

Install the package

Use the npm install command to install the Azure Communication Services Calling SDK for JavaScript.

Important

This quickstart uses the Azure Communication Services Calling SDK version next.

npm install @azure/communication-common@next --save
npm install @azure/communication-calling@next --save

Set up the app framework

This quickstart uses webpack to bundle the application assets. Run the following command to install the webpack, webpack-cli and webpack-dev-server npm packages and list them as development dependencies in your package.json:

npm install copy-webpack-plugin@^11.0.0 webpack@^5.88.2 webpack-cli@^5.1.4 webpack-dev-server@^4.15.1 --save-dev

Create an index.html file in the root directory of your project. We'll use this file to configure a basic layout that will allow the user to place a 1:1 video call.

Here's the code:

<!-- index.html -->

Add the webpack local server code

Create a file in the root directory of your project called webpack.config.js to contain the local server logic for this quickstart. Add the following code to webpack.config.js:

const path = require('path');
const CopyPlugin = require("copy-webpack-plugin");

module.exports = {
    mode: 'development',
    entry: './client.js',
    output: {
        filename: 'main.js',
        path: path.resolve(__dirname, 'dist'),
    },
    devServer: {
        static: {
            directory: path.join(__dirname, './')
        },
    },
    plugins: [
        new CopyPlugin({
            patterns: [
                './index.html'
            ]
        }),
    ]
};

Run the code

Use the webpack-dev-server to build and run your app. Run the following command to bundle the application host in a local webserver:

npx webpack serve --config webpack.config.js

Manual steps to set up the call:

Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:8080/.
Enter a valid user access token. Refer to the user access token documentation if you don't already have access tokens available to use.
Click on the "Initialize Call Agent" buttons.
Enter the Call Queue Object ID, and select the "Start Call" button. Application will start the outgoing call to the call queue with given object ID.
Call is connected to the Call Queue.
Communication Services user is routed through Call Queue based on its configuration.

Important

This feature of Azure Communication Services is currently in preview.

Preview APIs and SDKs are provided without a service-level agreement. We recommend that you don't use them for production workloads. Some features might not be supported, or they might have constrained capabilities.

For more information, review Supplemental Terms of Use for Microsoft Azure Previews.

In this quickstart you are going to learn how to start a call from Azure Communication Services user to Teams Call Queue. You are going to achieve it with the following steps:

Enable federation of Azure Communication Services resource with Teams Tenant.
Select or create Teams Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.
Get email address of Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.
Get Object ID of the Call Queue via Graph API.
Start a call with Azure Communication Services Calling SDK.

If you'd like to skip ahead to the end, you can download this quickstart as a sample on GitHub.

Enable interoperability in your Teams tenant

Microsoft Entra user with Teams administrator role can run PowerShell cmdlet with MicrosoftTeams module to enable the Communication Services resource in the tenant.

1. Prepare the Microsoft Teams module

First, open the PowerShell and validate the existence of the Teams module with the following command:

Get-module *teams*

If you don't see the MicrosoftTeams module, install it first. To install the module, you need to run PowerShell as an administrator. Then run the following command:

	Install-Module -Name MicrosoftTeams

	Update-Module MicrosoftTeams

2. Connect to Microsoft Teams module

Connect-MicrosoftTeams

3. Enable tenant configuration

$allowlist = @('IMMUTABLE_RESOURCE_ID')
Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration -EnableAcsUsers $True -AllowedAcsResources $allowlist

4. Enable tenant policy

Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy -Identity Global -EnableAcsFederationAccess $true

Create or select Teams Call Queue

Learn more about how to create Call Queue using Teams Admin Center here.

Find Object ID for Call Queue

After Call queue is created, we need to find correlated Object ID to use it later for calls. Object ID is connected to Resource Account that was attached to Call Queue - open Resource Accounts tab in Teams Admin and find email. Screenshot of Resource Accounts in Teams Admin Portal. All required information for Resource Account can be found in Microsoft Graph Explorer using this email in the search.

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/lab-test2-cq-@contoso.com

In results we'll are able to find "ID" field

    "userPrincipalName": "lab-test2-cq@contoso.com",
    "id": "31a011c2-2672-4dd0-b6f9-9334ef4999db"

To use in the calling App, we need to add a prefix to this ID. Currently, the following are supported:

Public cloud Call Queue: 28:orgid:<id>
Government cloud Call Queue: 28:gcch:<id>

Prerequisites

From Android Studio, select Start a new Android Studio project.

Screenshot showing the 'Start a new Android Studio Project' button selected in Android Studio.

Select "Empty Views Activity" project template under "Phone and Tablet".

Select Minimum SDK of "API 26: Android 8.0 (Oreo)" or greater.

Screenshot showing the 'Empty Activity' option selected in the Project Template Screen 2.

Install the package

Locate your project settings.gradle.kts and make sure to see mavenCentral() at the list of repositories under pluginManagement and dependencyResolutionManagement

pluginManagement {
    repositories {
    ...
        mavenCentral()
    ...
    }
}

dependencyResolutionManagement {
    repositoriesMode.set(RepositoriesMode.FAIL_ON_PROJECT_REPOS)
    repositories {
    ...
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Then, in your module level build.gradle add the following lines to the dependencies and android sections

android {
    ...
    
    compileOptions {
        sourceCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
        targetCompatibility JavaVersion.VERSION_1_8
    }
}

dependencies {
    ...
    implementation ("com.azure.android:azure-communication-calling:2.6.0")
    ...
}

Add permissions to application manifest

In order to request permissions required to make a call, they must be declared in the Application Manifest (app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml). Replace the content of file with the following code:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<manifest xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    package="com.contoso.acsquickstart">

    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.RECORD_AUDIO" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
    <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.READ_PHONE_STATE" />

    <application
        android:allowBackup="true"
        android:icon="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
        android:label="@string/app_name"
        android:roundIcon="@mipmap/ic_launcher_round"
        android:supportsRtl="true"
        android:theme="@style/AppTheme">
        <!--Our Calling SDK depends on the Apache HTTP SDK.

        <uses-library android:name="org.apache.http.legacy" android:required="false"/>
        <activity android:name=".MainActivity">
            <intent-filter>
                <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

                <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
            </intent-filter>
        </activity>
    </application>

</manifest>

Set up the layout for the app

Two inputs are needed: a text input for the callee ID, and a button for placing the call. These inputs can be added through the designer or by editing the layout xml. Create a button with an ID of call_button and a text input of callee_id. Navigate to (app/src/main/res/layout/activity_main.xml) and replace the content of file with the following code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    tools:context="${launchApp}">

    <EditText
        android:id="@+id/callee_id"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:ems="10"
        android:hint="Callee Id"
        android:inputType="textPersonName"
        android:layout_marginTop="100dp"
        android:layout_marginHorizontal="20dp"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginBottom="46dp"
        android:gravity="center"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent">

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/call_button"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Call" />

        <Button
            android:id="@+id/hangup_button"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:text="Hangup" />

    </LinearLayout>

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/status_bar"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_marginBottom="16dp"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent" />
</androidx.constraintlayout.widget.ConstraintLayout>

Create the main activity scaffolding and bindings

With the layout created the bindings can be added as well as the basic scaffolding of the activity. The activity handles requesting runtime permissions, creating the call agent, and placing the call when the button is pressed. The onCreate method is overridden to invoke getAllPermissions and createAgent and to add the bindings for the call button. This event occurs only once when the activity is created. For more information, on onCreate, see the guide Understand the Activity Lifecycle.

Navigate to MainActivity.java and replace the content with the following code:

Request permissions at runtime

For Android 6.0 and higher (API level 23) and targetSdkVersion 23 or higher, permissions are granted at runtime instead of when the app is installed. In order to support it, getAllPermissions can be implemented to call ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission and ActivityCompat.requestPermissions for each required permission.

/**
 * Request each required permission if the app doesn't already have it.
 */
private void getAllPermissions() {
    ArrayList<String> permissionsToAskFor = new ArrayList<>();
    for (String permission : allPermissions) {
        if (ActivityCompat.checkSelfPermission(this, permission) != PackageManager.PERMISSION_GRANTED) {
            permissionsToAskFor.add(permission);
        }
    }
    if (!permissionsToAskFor.isEmpty()) {
        ActivityCompat.requestPermissions(this, permissionsToAskFor.toArray(new String[0]), 1);
    }
}

Note

When designing your app, consider when these permissions should be requested. Permissions should be requested as they are needed, not ahead of time. For more information, see, the Android Permissions Guide.

Object model

The following classes and interfaces handle some of the major features of the Azure Communication Services Calling SDK:

Name	Description
`CallClient`	The `CallClient` is the main entry point to the Calling SDK.
`CallAgent`	The `CallAgent` is used to start and manage calls.
`CommunicationTokenCredential`	The `CommunicationTokenCredential` is used as the token credential to instantiate the `CallAgent`.
`CommunicationIdentifier`	The `CommunicationIdentifier` is used as different type of participant that could be part of a call.

Create an agent from the user access token

With a user token, an authenticated call agent can be instantiated. Generally this token is generated from a service with authentication specific to the application. For more information on user access tokens, check the User Access Tokens guide.

For the quickstart, replace <User_Access_Token> with a user access token generated for your Azure Communication Service resource.


/**
 * Create the call agent for placing calls
 */
private void createAgent() {
    String userToken = "<User_Access_Token>";

    try {
            CommunicationTokenCredential credential = new CommunicationTokenCredential(userToken);
            callAgent = new CallClient().createCallAgent(getApplicationContext(), credential).get();
    } catch (Exception ex) {
        Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Failed to create call agent.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
}

Run the code

The app can now be launched using the "Run App" button on the toolbar.

Manual steps to set up the call:

Launch the app using Android Studio.
Enter the Call Queue Object ID (with prefix), and select the "Start Call" button. Application will start the outgoing call to the Call Queue with given object ID.
Call is connected to the Call Queue.
Communication Services user is routed through Call Queue based on its configuration.

Important

This feature of Azure Communication Services is currently in preview.

For more information, review Supplemental Terms of Use for Microsoft Azure Previews.

In this quickstart you are going to learn how to start a call from Azure Communication Services user to Teams Call Queue. You are going to achieve it with the following steps:

Enable federation of Azure Communication Services resource with Teams Tenant.
Select or create Teams Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.
Get email address of Call Queue via Teams Admin Center.
Get Object ID of the Call Queue via Graph API.
Start a call with Azure Communication Services Calling SDK.

If you'd like to skip ahead to the end, you can download this quickstart as a sample on GitHub.

Enable interoperability in your Teams tenant

Microsoft Entra user with Teams administrator role can run PowerShell cmdlet with MicrosoftTeams module to enable the Communication Services resource in the tenant.

1. Prepare the Microsoft Teams module

First, open the PowerShell and validate the existence of the Teams module with the following command:

Get-module *teams*

If you don't see the MicrosoftTeams module, install it first. To install the module, you need to run PowerShell as an administrator. Then run the following command:

	Install-Module -Name MicrosoftTeams

	Update-Module MicrosoftTeams

2. Connect to Microsoft Teams module

Connect-MicrosoftTeams

3. Enable tenant configuration

$allowlist = @('IMMUTABLE_RESOURCE_ID')
Set-CsTeamsAcsFederationConfiguration -EnableAcsUsers $True -AllowedAcsResources $allowlist

4. Enable tenant policy

Set-CsExternalAccessPolicy -Identity Global -EnableAcsFederationAccess $true

Create or select Teams Call Queue

Learn more about how to create Call Queue using Teams Admin Center here.

Find Object ID for Call Queue

https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/lab-test2-cq-@contoso.com

In results we'll are able to find "ID" field

    "userPrincipalName": "lab-test2-cq@contoso.com",
    "id": "31a011c2-2672-4dd0-b6f9-9334ef4999db"

To use in the calling App, we need to add a prefix to this ID. Currently, the following are supported:

Public cloud Call Queue: 28:orgid:<id>
Government cloud Call Queue: 28:gcch:<id>

Prerequisites

Obtain an Azure account with an active subscription. Create an account for free.
A Mac running Xcode, along with a valid developer certificate installed into your Keychain.
A deployed Communication Services resource. Create a Communication Services resource. You need to record your connection string for this quickstart.
A User Access Token for your Azure Communication Service. You can also use the Azure CLI and run the command with your connection string to create a user and an access token.
```
az communication identity token issue --scope voip --connection-string "yourConnectionString"
```
For details, see Use Azure CLI to Create and Manage Access Tokens.
Minimum support for Teams calling applications: 2.14.0-beta.1

Setting up

Creating the Xcode project

In Xcode, create a new iOS project and select the App template. This tutorial uses the SwiftUI framework, so you should set the Language to Swift and the User Interface to SwiftUI. You're not going to create tests during this quick start. Feel free to uncheck Include Tests.

Screenshot showing the New Project window within Xcode.

Install the package and dependencies with CocoaPods

To create a Podfile for your application, open the terminal and navigate to the project folder and run:

pod init

Add the following code to the Podfile and save (make sure that "target" matches the name of your project):

platform :ios, '13.0'
use_frameworks!

target 'AzureCommunicationCallingSample' do
  pod 'AzureCommunicationCalling', '~> 2.14.0-beta.1'
end

Run pod install.
Open the .xcworkspace with Xcode.

Request access to the microphone

In order to access the device's microphone, you need to update your app's Information Property List with an NSMicrophoneUsageDescription. You set the associated value to a string that was included in the dialog the system uses to request access from the user.

Right-click the Info.plist entry of the project tree and select Open As > Source Code. Add the following lines the top level <dict> section, and then save the file.

<key>NSMicrophoneUsageDescription</key>
<string>Need microphone access for VOIP calling.</string>

Set up the app framework

Open your project's ContentView.swift file and add an import declaration to the top of the file to import the AzureCommunicationCalling library. In addition, import AVFoundation, we need this code for audio permission request in the code.

import AzureCommunicationCalling
import AVFoundation

Replace the implementation of the ContentView struct with some simple UI controls that enable a user to initiate and end a call. We attach business logic to these controls in this quickstart.

struct ContentView: View {
    @State var callee: String = ""
    @State var callClient: CallClient?
    @State var callAgent: CallAgent?
    @State var call: Call?

    var body: some View {
        NavigationView {
            Form {
                Section {
                    TextField("Who would you like to call?", text: $callee)
                    Button(action: startCall) {
                        Text("Start Call")
                    }.disabled(callAgent == nil)
                    Button(action: endCall) {
                        Text("End Call")
                    }.disabled(call == nil)
                }
            }
            .navigationBarTitle("Calling Quickstart")
        }.onAppear {
            // Initialize call agent
        }
    }

    func startCall() {
        // Ask permissions
        AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().requestRecordPermission { (granted) in
            if granted {
                // Add start call logic
            }
        }
    }

    func endCall() {
        // Add end call logic
    }
}

Object model

The following classes and interfaces handle some of the major features of the Azure Communication Services Calling SDK:

Name	Description
`CallClient`	The `CallClient` is the main entry point to the Calling SDK.
`CallAgent`	The `CallAgent` is used to start and manage calls.
`CommunicationTokenCredential`	The `CommunicationTokenCredential` is used as the token credential to instantiate the `CallAgent`.
`CommunicationUserIdentifier`	The `CommunicationUserIdentifier` is used to represent the identity of the user, which can be one of the following options: `CommunicationUserIdentifier`,`PhoneNumberIdentifier` or `CallingApplication.`

Authenticate the client

Initialize a CallAgent instance with a User Access Token, which enables us to make and receive calls.

In the following code, you need to replace <USER ACCESS TOKEN> with a valid user access token for your resource. Refer to the user access token documentation if you don't already have a token available.

Add the following code to the onAppear callback in ContentView.swift:

var userCredential: CommunicationTokenCredential?
do {
    userCredential = try CommunicationTokenCredential(token: "<USER ACCESS TOKEN>")
} catch {
    print("ERROR: It was not possible to create user credential.")
    return
}

self.callClient = CallClient()

// Creates the call agent
self.callClient?.createCallAgent(userCredential: userCredential!) { (agent, error) in
    if error != nil {
        print("ERROR: It was not possible to create a call agent.")
        return
    }
    else {
        self.callAgent = agent
        print("Call agent successfully created.")
    }
}

Start a call

The startCall method is set as the action that is performed when the Start Call button is tapped. Update the implementation to start a call with the ASACallAgent:

func startCall()
{
    // Ask permissions
    AVAudioSession.sharedInstance().requestRecordPermission { (granted) in
        if granted {
            // start call logic
            let callees:[CommunicationIdentifier] = [MicrosoftTeamsAppIdentifier(self.callee)]
            self.callAgent?.startCall(participants: callees, options: StartCallOptions()) { (call, error) in
                if (error == nil) {
                    self.call = call
                } else {
                    print("Failed to get call object")
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

You also can use the properties in StartCallOptions to set the initial options for the call (that is, it allows starting the call with the microphone muted).

End a call

Implement the endCall method to end the current call when the End Call button is tapped.

func endCall()
{    
    self.call!.hangUp(options: HangUpOptions()) { (error) in
        if (error != nil) {
            print("ERROR: It was not possible to hangup the call.")
        }
    }
}

Run the code

You can build and run your app on iOS simulator by selecting Product > Run or by using the (⌘-R) keyboard shortcut.

Note

The first time you make a call, the system will prompt you for access to the microphone. In a production application, you should use the AVAudioSession API to check the permission status and gracefully update your application's behavior when permission is not granted.

Manual steps to set up the call:

Launch the app using Xcode
Enter the Call Queue Object ID (with prefix), and select the "Start Call" button. Application will start the outgoing call to the Call Queue with given object ID.
Call is connected to the Call Queue.
Communication Services user is routed through Call Queue based on its configuration.

Right select your project and go to Manage Nuget Packages to install Azure.Communication.Calling.WindowsClient 1.4.0 or superior. Make sure Include Prerelease is checked if you want to see the versions for public preview.

Request access

Go to Package.appxmanifest and select Capabilities. Check Internet (Client) and Internet (Client & Server) to gain inbound and outbound access to the Internet. Check Microphone to access the audio feed of the microphone, and Webcam to access the video feed of the camera.

Set up the app framework

We need to configure a basic layout to attach our logic. In order to place an outbound call, we need a TextBox to provide the User ID of the callee. We also need a Start/Join call button and a Hang up button. A Mute and a BackgroundBlur checkboxes are also included in this sample to demonstrate the features of toggling audio states and video effects.

Open the MainPage.xaml of your project and add the Grid node to your Page:

Object model

The next table listed the classes and interfaces handle some of the major features of the Azure Communication Services Calling SDK:

Name	Description
`CallClient`	The `CallClient` is the main entry point to the Calling SDK.
`CallAgent`	The `CallAgent` is used to start and manage calls.
`CommunicationCall`	The `CommunicationCall` is used to manage an ongoing call.
`CallTokenCredential`	The `CallTokenCredential` is used as the token credential to instantiate the `CallAgent`.
`CallIdentifier`	The `CallIdentifier` is used to represent the identity of the user, which can be one of the following options: `UserCallIdentifier`, `PhoneNumberCallIdentifier` etc.

Authenticate the client

Initialize a CallAgent instance with a User Access Token that enables us to make and receive calls, and optionally obtain a DeviceManager instance to query for client device configurations.

In the code, replace <AUTHENTICATION_TOKEN> with a User Access Token. Refer to the user access token documentation if you don't already have a token available.

Add InitCallAgentAndDeviceManagerAsync function, which bootstraps the SDK. This helper can be customized to meet the requirements of your application.

        private async Task InitCallAgentAndDeviceManagerAsync()
        {
            this.callClient = new CallClient(new CallClientOptions() {
                Diagnostics = new CallDiagnosticsOptions() { 
                    
                    // make sure to put your project AppName
                    AppName = "CallingQuickstart",

                    AppVersion="1.0",

                    Tags = new[] { "Calling", "ACS", "Windows" }
                    }

                });

            // Set up local audio stream using the first mic enumerated
            var deviceManager = await this.callClient.GetDeviceManagerAsync();
            var mic = deviceManager?.Microphones?.FirstOrDefault();

            micStream = new LocalOutgoingAudioStream();

            var tokenCredential = new CallTokenCredential(authToken, callTokenRefreshOptions);

            var callAgentOptions = new CallAgentOptions()
            {
                DisplayName = $"{Environment.MachineName}/{Environment.UserName}",
            };

            this.callAgent = await this.callClient.CreateCallAgentAsync(tokenCredential, callAgentOptions);

            this.callAgent.IncomingCallReceived += OnIncomingCallAsync;
        }

Start the call

Once a StartCallOptions object is obtained, CallAgent can be used to initiate the Azure Communication Services call:

        private async Task<CommunicationCall> StartCallAsync(string acsCallee)
        {
            var options = new StartCallOptions();
            var call = await this.callAgent.StartCallAsync( new [] { new MicrosoftTeamsAppCallIdentifier(acsCallee) }, options);
            return call;
        }

End a call

End the current call when the Hang up button is clicked. Add the implementation to the HangupButton_Click to end a call, and stop the preview and video streams.

        private async void HangupButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            var call = this.callAgent?.Calls?.FirstOrDefault();
            if (call != null)
            {
                await call.HangUpAsync(new HangUpOptions() { ForEveryone = false });
            }
        }

Toggle mute/unmute on audio

Mute the outgoing audio when the Mute button is clicked. Add the implementation to the MuteLocal_Click to mute the call.

        private async void MuteLocal_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            var muteCheckbox = sender as CheckBox;

            if (muteCheckbox != null)
            {
                var call = this.callAgent?.Calls?.FirstOrDefault();

                if (call != null)
                {
                    if ((bool)muteCheckbox.IsChecked)
                    {
                        await call.MuteOutgoingAudioAsync();
                    }
                    else
                    {
                        await call.UnmuteOutgoingAudioAsync();
                    }
                }

                // Update the UI to reflect the state
            }
        }

Accept an incoming call

IncomingCallReceived event sink is set up in the SDK bootstrap helper InitCallAgentAndDeviceManagerAsync.

    this.callAgent.IncomingCallReceived += OnIncomingCallAsync;

Application has an opportunity to configure how the incoming call should be accepted, such as video and audio stream kinds.

        private async void OnIncomingCallAsync(object sender, IncomingCallReceivedEventArgs args)
        {
            var incomingCall = args.IncomingCall;

            var acceptCallOptions = new AcceptCallOptions() { };

            call = await incomingCall.AcceptAsync(acceptCallOptions);
            call.StateChanged += OnStateChangedAsync;
        }

Monitor and response to call state change event

StateChanged event on CommunicationCall object is fired when an in progress call transactions from one state to another. Application is offered the opportunities to reflect the state changes on UI or insert business logics.

        private async void OnStateChangedAsync(object sender, PropertyChangedEventArgs args)
        {
            var call = sender as CommunicationCall;

            if (call != null)
            {
                var state = call.State;

                // Update the UI

                switch (state)
                {
                    case CallState.Connected:
                        {
                            await call.StartAudioAsync(micStream);

                            break;
                        }
                    case CallState.Disconnected:
                        {
                            call.StateChanged -= OnStateChangedAsync;

                            call.Dispose();

                            break;
                        }
                    default: break;
                }
            }
        }

Make call button work

Once the Callee ID isn't null or empty, you can start a call.

The call state must be changed using the OnStateChangedAsync action.


    private async void CallButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        var callString = CalleeTextBox.Text.Trim();

        if (!string.IsNullOrEmpty(callString))
        {
            call = await StartCallAsync(callString);

            call.StateChanged += OnStateChangedAsync;
        }
    
        
    }

Run the code

You can build and run the code on Visual Studio. For solution platforms, we support ARM64, x64, and x86.

Manual steps to set up the call:

Launch the app using Visual Studio.
Enter the Call Queue Object ID (with prefix), and select the "Start Call" button. Application will start the outgoing call to the Call Queue with given object ID.
Call is connected to the Call Queue.
Communication Services user is routed through Call Queue based on its configuration.
