Ws contacts.exe utility

The ws_contacts.exe utility is intended for:

• exporting server accounts to a JSON file for subsequent import into Vinteo Desktop or Vinteo terminal;
• importing a list of server accounts into contacts for WS accounts.

Note: imports only those WS subscribers under which you can authenticate on the server with a password that is stored in the accounts properties. For example, it will not be possible to authenticate under a WS account imported from LDAP.

Usage

1. Contact list export

ws_contacts.exe -s 192.168.0.10 -p 1234 --no-cert-verify --debug export -o export1.json --for-terminal

-s - server address

-p - user password is admin

--no-cert-verify - disabling certificate verification on the server

--debug - debugging output of requests to the server

-o <file name to export>

--for-terminal - uploads in a format for loading into the Vinteo terminal via the terminal’s web interface. If the parameter is not specified then in the format for Vinteo Desktop.

2. Auto-filling Vinteo Desktop contacts for WS type accounts on the server

Attention! Outdated functionality. Starting from version 28.0.0 it is recommended to use the Address book server functionality to distribute contacts.

ws_contacts.exe -s 192.168.0.10 -p 1234 --debug --no-cert-verify fill --flush -i import.json

-s - server address

-p - user password is admin

--no-cert-verify - disabling certificate verification on the server

--debug - debugging output of requests to the server

--flush - clearing your contact list before importing

-i <file name to export> - contact file that needs to be imported. If the parameter is omitted the list of all server accounts is generated automatically.
