PHONISM TAGS

Phonism tags are a customer definable system of key value pairs that can be used as variables within single device parameters as well as templates. Phonism tags are functionally similar to Parameter variables but differ in the sense that the values are definable versus resolved.

Similar to the templating engine, tags also follow a top-down inheritance through the account hierarchical structure. Tag values are enforced top-down and are not over-writable by tags of the same name at lower levels in the hierarchy, unless the tag is specifically set to be overridable.

Create a Phonism tag

1. Navigate to the level of the hierarchy you wish to create the tag.

2. Select the Resources tab.

3. Click Tags.

4. Click New Tag.

5. Enter the desired tag name, value, and overridable flag.

6. Click Continue.

A new custom tag is added to your account. To edit an existing tag, select Edit in the Actions column next to the tag you’d like to modify.

Examples

AUXILIARY FILE

You can upload and provision devices with images, audio, and configuration files. Provisioning images and audio is a great way to customize devices for individuals or your brand. Configuration file support allows you the flexibility to configure special configuration files that do not fit within normal device provisioning.

Upload a file

1. Navigate to the company or tenant to upload a file.

2. Select the Resources tab.

3. Click Assets.

4. Select which type of file you’d like to upload:

• Auxiliary File

• Audio File

• Image File

5. On the upload dialog box, choose the Tenant to upload to from the drop-down menu.

6. Select the File Type.

7. Click Choose File to search for the file on your computer.

8. Click Continue to save.

The file is uploaded and all Phones and Templates now have a new Phonism Tag available for configuration. This tag is the URL for the phones to access the file. See the next section, Provision a file, for steps on how to configure a phone to retrieve a file.

Provision a file

In this example, we are configuring a Yealink phone to retrieve an image already uploaded to the system. You can apply these concepts to Phones and Template configurations, as well as auxiliary files.

1. Find the desired parameter to be configured. For example, the Logo URL.

2. Set the value to the predefined Variable.

Once configured, the generated configuration includes the URL for the device to access that file. On the next provision or reboot, the device will request the configured file.

Export a report

1. Navigate to the level of the hierarchy you wish to export the report.
