Subscribe to the presence of selected contacts

Subscribe to the presence of selected members of a contact group.

Applies to: Skype for Business 2015

Subscribing to the presence of selected contacts is sometimes referred to as subscribing to an ad hoc group. It involves resource navigation from application to people to presenceSubscriptions. The last resource is used to create the presence subscription.

An application can proceed to get the new presence data whenever a contact's presence changed event is received from the event channel. This involves getting the contactPresence resource that is linked to from the returned events data. The steps here assume that you have already created an application and have received a response that contains the href for an application resource. For more information, see Create an application. The steps also assume you have already found a contact whose presence you wish to subscribe to via the event channel. For more information, see Get the user's contact list or Search for a user's contact.

  1. Send a POST request on the presenceSubscriptions resource, as pointed to in the people resource embedded in the application resource. Specify the required duration parameter value and supply a list of SIP URIs (obtained from one or more contact resources) in the request body.
POST https://lyncweb.contoso.com/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptions HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Bearer cwt=AAEB...buHcmvDs1Z7CzwgNEPoG3XyftjBYhE5zTT0buHc
Accept: application/json
X-Ms-Origin: http://localhost
X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest

{"duration":11,"Uris": ["sip:SaraD@contoso.com"]}

In this example, the subscription expires in 11 minutes, if it is not extended. The supplied list of Uris contains a single user's SIP URI.

  1. Process the response from the previous POST request.

The successful response should be 201 Created. The response body contains the ID and the relative URL of the newly created subscription. The subscription ID or URL can be used to extend or delete this subscription. Available functionalities or operations are also specified by the returned links.

{
"id":"97b6bd66",
"_links":{
"self":{"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptions/97b6bd66"},
"memberships":{"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptionMemberships?presenceSubscriptionId=97b6bd66"},
"addToPresenceSubscription":{"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptionMemberships?presenceSubscriptionId=97b6bd66"}
},
"rel":"presenceSubscription"
}

When the event channel is activated, added events for presenceSubscription and contact and an updated event for contactPresence will be received in the event channel. The returned subscription URL in the presenceSubscription added event can be used to extend or delete this subscription.

"events": [{
"link":{
"rel":"contact",
"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/sarad@contoso.com"
},
"in":{
"rel":"subscribedContacts",
"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/subscribedContacts"
},
"type":"added"
},
{
"link":{
"rel":"presenceSubscription",
"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptions/97b6bd66"
},
"type":"added"
},
{
"link":{
"rel":"contactPresence",
"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/sarad@Contoso.com/presence"
},
"in":{
"rel":"contact",
"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/sarad@contoso.com"
},
"type":"updated"
}]

The href value is used to receive the actual presence data of the contact, which is discussed in Get presence data of a contact.

Receive presence data from the event channel

To get the actual presence data that appears in the event channel, start the event channel by sending a pending-GET request on the events resource. Later, the response to this request will contain an updated event for the contactPresence resource.

  1. Listen for an updated event for the contactPresence resource.

The following example shows that the presence for SaraD@contoso.com has been updated.

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
{
"_links":{
"self":{"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/events?ack=5"},
"next":{"href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/events?ack=6"}
},
"sender": [
{
"rel":"people","href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people",
"events": [
{ 
"link":{"rel":"contactPresence","href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/saraD@contoso.com/presence"},
"in":{"rel":"contact","href":"/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/saraD@contoso.com"},
"type":"updated"
}
]
}
]
}

An application should listen for an updated event for the presenceSubscription resource. This can indicate that the subscription is about to expire.

{
"_links":{
"self":{"href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/events?ack=10"},
"next":{"href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/events?ack=11"}
},
"sender": [
{
"rel":"people","href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/people",
"events": [
{
"link":{"rel":"presenceSubscription","href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptions/97b6bd66"},
"_embedded":{
"presenceSubscription":{
"id":"97b6bd66",
"_links":{
"self":{"href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptions/97b6bd66"},
"memberships":{"href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptionMemberships?presenceSubscriptionId=97b6bd66"},
"addToPresenceSubscription":{"href":"/ucwa/v1/applications/101/people/presenceSubscriptionMemberships?presenceSubscriptionId=97b6bd66"}
},
"rel":"presenceSubscription"
}
},
"type":"updated"
}
]
}]
}
  1. Send a GET request on the presence resource for the contact.
GET https://lyncweb.contoso.com/ucwa/oauth/v1/applications/101/people/sarad@contoso.com/presence HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Bearer cwt=AAEB...buHcmvDs1Z7CzwgNEPoG3XyftjBYhE5zTT0buHc
Accept: application/json
X-Ms-Origin: http://localhost
X-Requested-With: XMLHttpRequest

User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; Trident/5.0)
Host: lyncweb.contoso.com
Connection: Keep-Alive
  1. Process the response from the previous GET request to receive presence data.

As can be seen in the following example, the presence (availability) of saraD@contoso.com is Offline.
