Integrating with Thunderbird's Address book

• Install the TBDialOut extension.
  • https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/tbdialout/
• Open the extension and set it's preferences.
  • URL Scheme to use: Custom URL
  • Replace leading + with: Leave blank
  • Prefix called numbers with: Leave blank
  • Custom URL:
    • Here you will set dest=%NUM% and src_cid_number=%NUM%. The resulting url will look something like this:

https://voip.yourdomain.com/app/click_to_call/click_to_call.php?src_cid_name=TBDialout&src_cid_number=%NUM%&dest_cid_name=Your Name&dest_cid_number=3615551234&src=1000&dest=%NUM%&rec=false&ringback=us-ring

• • Username: You can fill this out but it doesn't do anything
  • Password: You can fill this out but it doesn't do anything
  • Open in bacground (http/https only): </b>UNCHECKED</b>

Notes

• IMPORTANT: TBDialout by default only string replaces the first %NUM%. You need to patch FusionPBX to account for this (Nov 15, 2012). There's a diff file attached on this issue.

• You need to be logged into the system in thunderbird for now. The first time you click a number it will open a browser window inside of thunderbird, and you will need to log in. I usually then go to the active extensions page so that I stay logged in.
• Open the address book and click a phone number. It should dial your extension first, and then ring the other party.
