Cobrowse Agent Events

Events

Agent Events are the events included within the agent side behavior of Cobrowse, in alphabetical order:

accessdenied

The accessdenied method means the agent attempted to use a Glance feature without the appropriate privilege. The object passed to the event handler describes the access violation.

It may include the rcrequested property when an agent requested remote control without having the remote-control privilege.

agents

The agents event announces agents joining or leaving the session. See the visitor-side agents event for more information.

documentShared

Information about document sharing.

{"sharedBy": "visitor|agent", "name": "name.xyz" }

documentDownloaded

Information about the files downloaded from document sharing.

{"sharedBy": "visitor|agent", "downloadedBy": "visitor|agent","name": "name.xyz" }

sessionpaused

A session posts sessionpaused when the session is paused or unpaused. It includes an object describing the current state of the session. It will include the message displayed to the agent, if one is provided.

{paused: true|false[, message: '']}

navigate

The navigate event occurs when a visitor navigates to a new page. The object passed to the event handler includes information about the browser and URL.

rc

The rc event occurs when the remote control state changes. The enabled property of the object indicates whether remote control is currently enabled. The suspended property indicates whether control is temporarily suspended due to visitor mouse or keyboard activity. See the visitor side rc event for more information.

{  enabled : [true | false],
   suspended : [true | false]}    

rcrequest

The rcrequest event occurs when the visitor responds to a request for remote control. The object passed to the event handler shows whether the visitor accepted or declined the request.

{response:["accepted" | "declined"]}    

sessionend

The sessionend event occurs when the session ends. The object passed to the event handler may be undefined, or may contain a reason code. Please see reason codes.

{msg : [a description of the error]}    

screenshare

The screenshare event occurs on the agent side when a visitor accepts, declines, joins, or ends a Screen Share session. The object passed to the event handler shows the view and the state of the screenshare session.

{screenshareView : "[glance_agentvideo|glance_screenshare]",
 state: "[accepted|declined|joined|ended]"
}

userstate

The userstate event occurs whenever the visitor side sets user state by calling the GLANCE.Cobrowse.Visitor.setUserState() method. It includes the user state object passed into that method call on the user side.

viewerclosing

The viewerclosing event occurs when participants in a multiway video session are unable to play videos due to their browser/network.

{ closereason: "PlayerTooSlow"}

visitorvideorequest

The visitor has responded to a request to turn on video.accepted or declined.

visitorvideo

  previewelementid [id of the element containing the visitor's video preview],
