This class gives API access to the currently active conversation.

As long as a conversation is active one can register and receive the events provided by this class and call the methods. Once the conversation is closed this API object will be destroyed and no more event callbacks will be called. Any subsequent calls will fail.

Use the CLOSE event to de-init any code connected to this conversation.

Hierarchy

  • Conversation

Methods

  • Closes this conversation locally.

    When called, the connection to this conversation is closed and the overview is displayed.

    Note that:

    • Closing does NOT end the conversation.
    • The person does NOT leave the conversation.
    • All Conversation api instances for this conversation will be destroyed.

    The conversation can be joined again either via the UI or using UnbluApi.openConversation.

    Returns Promise<void>

    A Promise that resolves to null or is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails.

    See

  • Destroys this conversation API instance.

    Calling destroy will unregister all event listeners and prohibit any further calls to this object. Once the conversation is destroyed, any subsequent calls will reject the returned promise with UnbluErrorType.ILLEGAL_STATE as the reason.

    Note that:

    • Destroying does NOT close the conversation .
    • Destroying does NOT end the conversation.
    • Destroying does NOT leave the conversation.
    • Other instances of the same Conversation will NOT be destroyed.

    This call simply destroys this local API instance to the conversation.

    A destroyed but still open conversation can be accessed again using UnbluApi.getActiveConversation.

    Returns void

    See

  • Ends and closes this conversation.

    If the local person doesn't have the right to end the conversation, the returned promise will be rejected with the unblu error type UnbluErrorType.ACTION_NOT_GRANTED.

    Returns Promise<void>

    A Promise that resolves to null or is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails.

    See

  • Gets the call connection state for the current active call of the local participant. Check CallConnectionState for possible states.

    Returns Promise<CallConnectionState>

    A promise that resolves to the current call connection state of the conversation or is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails. The promise resolves to CallConnectionState.DISCONNECTED if there's no active call.

    See

    CALL_CONNECTION_STATE_CHANGE if you need to listen to changes.

  • Gets the conversation's call state the local participant has, check CallState for possible states.

    Returns Promise<CallState>

    A promise that resolves to the current call state of the local participant

    See

    CALL_STATE_CHANGE if you need to listen to changes

  • Returns the current connection state the conversation is in.

    If the connection is lost, the conversation will automatically try to reconnect using an exponential back-off strategy. If a fatal error is detected, the state will change to ConnectionState.ERROR.

    If this happens, the conversation is in it's terminal state. A dialog or other UI will be displayed to the user with details on the failure. The conversation is not automatically closed in this case. It may either be closed through a manual action by the visitor (confirming the error) or via the API.

    Returns Promise<ConnectionState>

    A promise that resolves to the current connection state of the conversation or is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails.

    See

    CONNECTION_STATE_CHANGE if you need to listen to changes.

  • Returns the ID of this conversation.

    Returns string

  • Returns the current state the conversation is in.

    Returns Promise<ConversationState>

    A promise that resolves to the current state of the conversation or is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails.

  • Gets the conversation's queue status. The position and/or averageWaitingTime of the return value can be null, if the feature is disabled for them in the configuration.

    Returns Promise<ConversationQueueStatus>

    A promise that either resolves to the current queue status of the conversation or resolves empty if the conversation isn't queued. The promise is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails.

    See

    QUEUE_STATUS_CHANGE if you need to listen to changes.

  • Get the custom visitor data from the conversation.

    Returns Promise<String>

    The custom visitor data in the conversation

  • Returns weather this conversation is destroyed or not.

    Conversations are destroyed if destroy is called or the conversation is closed. This usually happens when the user navigates back to an overview or into an other conversation.

    Returns boolean

    Weather this conversation is destroyed or not.

  • Leaves and closes this conversation.

    By leaving, the visitor is removed from the active participant list of the conversation. Once a conversation is left, the visitor can not re-open it. It will not be visible in the conversation history either.

    If the local person doesn't have the right to leave the conversation, the returned promise will be rejected with the unblu error type UnbluErrorType.ACTION_NOT_GRANTED.

    Returns Promise<void>

    A Promise that resolves to null or is rejected with a UnbluApiError if the call fails.
