Can I turn on/off auto answer feature on the line through UDS API?

Hi,

I want user themself to change auto answer setting on the line. Can I do that through UDS API? or has to use AXL?

Thanks.

Hi Lou,

Actions to be accomplished using UDS include:

• Directory Search for Users
• Manage Call Forward, Do Not Disturb, and Speed Dial settings, including Visual & Audible Alert preferences
• Set Language and Locale
• Subscribe to IP Phone Service Applications
• Reset PIN/Password credentials
• Configure Remote Destinations used with Cisco Mobility & Single Number Reach

I think you need to use AXL Please Browse this url for related information - https://developer.cisco.com/media/axl-cookbook/intercomButtons.html

Thanks and Regards,

I agree, you have to use AXL. AutoAnswer is considered an administrative feature, so it is not exposed in UDS, which is all user facing features.

Thanks a lot. Can I use axl to change autoanswer status in device profile used in extension mobility profile ?

Actually, auto answer is a DN or line setting, so it will follow the line it is on, not the phone.

I've played with this before...the AXL looks something like this (it's a couple of versions old), so your mileage may vary:
