When a call comes in, the flow starts with call control actions like answering, transferring to a queue, and other simple actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The flow execution continues until the call ends, or the user initiates a hang-up command to stop the flow execution. However, this model is limited to call channels only, and other communication channels are not supported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This was OK for traditional CTI service. But how can we provide this with CPaaS technology? How should we control the flow if the channel is not a call? The CPaaS supports many more communication channels, including voice, video, SMS, email, and others. To control the flow of all these channels, CPaaS providers should offer a unified interface that can control the flow of all channel types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I implemented this called &#8220;Activeflow&#8221; in a VoIPBin service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Activeflow is a powerful concept that provides a unified flow control interface for all channel types. It is created when flow execution starts and allows users to control the flow for any channel type. In VoIPBin&#8217;s implementation of Activeflow, customers can use the hang-up command for call channels and Activeflow&#8217;s stop command for all other channel types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, Activeflow is a critical feature that CPaaS providers should offer, as it provides a simple and unified way to control the flow of all communication channels. This helps users save time and increase productivity while managing their communication channels in a more flexible and customizable way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is details about the activeflow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/api.voipbin.net\/docs\/activeflow.html\">https:\/\/api.voipbin.net\/docs\/activeflow.html<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Traditional CTI services use a basic flow execution model to control the flow of calls.
