Run external exectuables from a script.
Hi,
I know this is a bit unusual, but I'm looking for the following -
The ability to run an exe file (located on the UCCX or elsewhere) invoked from the UCCX script (maybe with the help of Java?).
Another ( much less preferred) solution would be initiating a HTTP POST to a different server without any trigger.
I'm using UCCX premium, are those options feasible and if so I'd be more than thankful for an example to both.
Manny thanks,
Johnny.
