5) Publishing the Project
To publish the project:
- From the menu, select Project > Publish
- Agent Type - select Live or Virtual
- Project Name - confirm
- Campaign Name(s) - enter the name(s) of the campaign(s) you want to run the script against. (If you don't already have a campaign to test with, create a campaign first; then enter its name here.)
For more guidance,
- Queue - If the campaign that the script(s) belong(s) to is an Inbound campaign, you will also need to enter the name(s) of the Queue(s) to which the script is assigned.
For more guidance, see Campaign Name(s) and Queue fields - What should I enter? below
- The Publish URL is as configured in the Tools > Options > Publish Connection URL setting, in the form:
http://<SCC web server>:81/Scripter/<tenant>/publish.channel
The default setting for the default tenant is:
http://localhost:81/Scripter/default/publish.channel
- Click OK
Campaign Name(s) and Queue fields - What should I enter?
Rules for entering text into the Campaign Name(s) and Queue fields depend on the number of campaigns/ queues involved. These rules are expressed in the table below, where
- <campaign> = a valid campaign name
- <queue> = a valid queue name
These fields accept any text. Therefore, to see the intended result, <campaign> and <queue> must match exactly (case sensitive) those intended. To avoid error, best practice is to copy names directly from Softdial Campaign Manager™ or Softdial Repository™.
| To publish to... | Enter into these fields... | Example | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| no. campaigns | no. queues | Campaign Name | Queue | |
| 1 | For Inbound - all For Outbound - not applicable |
<campaign> | Leave empty. Any text will be interpreted as <queue> |
|
| 1 | 1 | <campaign>
If empty, will fail to publish |
<queue> | 
|
| 1 | 2+ | <campaign> | <queue>,<queue>, etc | 
|
| 2+ | For Inbound - all For Outbound - not applicable |
<campaign>,<campaign>, etc | Leave empty. If not empty, will fail to publish |
|
| 2+ | 1+ | <campaign>+<queue>,<campaign>, etc | Leave empty. If not empty, will fail to publish |
|
On subsequent publish events, the Campaign Name and Queue fields will be auto-populated, following the pattern above, according to the number of campaigns/ queues to which it has previously been published.
Therefore, for example:
| If previously published to... | Will auto-populate with... | ||
|---|---|---|---|
| no. campaigns | no. queues | Campaign Name | Queue |
| 1 | 1 | <campaign> | <queue> |
| 2+ | 1+ | <campaign>+<queue>,<campaign>, etc | Empty |
The auto-populated fields can still be edited to specify your exact intentions.
Validating the script
Before the project is published, Softdial Scripter™ performs a validation check and any errors found will be displayed in the Status List beneath the Designer window.
Error reports for errors found during publishing will show the name of the script file where the error was found.
To show the step where the error occurred and provide a more detailed description of the error:
- click on the tab of the script that has errors
- run Script > Validation Check
Best practice is to run a validation check on each script as it is completed.
If the Publish process succeeds, you will see a progress report like the one in Fig. 2.
