Twilio iOS client not passing parmeters on connect - ios

Question

Yet another problem with Twilio for me. So, I'm trying to connect with another user with parametes. Here's my code:
-(void)connect:(CDVInvokedUrlCommand*)command {
NSLog(#"The content of dict is%#",[command.arguments objectAtIndex:0]);
NSDictionary *dict = [command.arguments objectAtIndex:0];
for(NSString *key in [dict allKeys]) {
NSLog(#"%#",key);
NSLog(#"%#",[dict objectForKey:key]);
}
[self.device connect:dict delegate:self];
}
Problem: no matter what I have in NSDictionary nothing gets passed to server. I have tryied with number of parameters, nothing gets passed. Not even To parameters, on non of other, custom ones. It works for every other platform, but not for iOS.
What em I missing here? According to docs it should work, connect method is taking NSDictionary as input,
-connect:(NSDictionary*)params delegate:(id<TCConnectionDelegate>)delegate, so where should I look?
PS. This is yet another big problem Twilio lib that I had in last few days. Im getting enough of it.

Answer 1

OK, the problem was that I was passing NSDictionary with key that had integer value. The -connect method accepts only <NSString NSString> NSDictionary.

Answer 2

Let's figure this out. It’s not entirely clear from your code sample what exactly you've passed in as arguments so forgive me if I suggest something you might've already tried.
What happens if you try something like this?
NSDictionary *params = #{#"To": "number_to_dial"};
_connection = [_phone connect:params delegate:self];
If this does not work, we can be certain the problem lies in the account, token, or app itself.
The iOS sample shows how to pass the dialing parameters, however it’s still the developer’s responsibility to create proper ​TwiML that contains the dialing command tags that Twilio recognizes.
If the call is hitting your server though without any parameters being passed in, there should be a Twilio CallSid available in the TCConnectionDelegate.connectionDidConnect: method. If that's the case, I would suggest contacting support with that Sid and we can dig more info from the server to see what parameters are being passed.
Here's how to retrieve the CallSid:
- (void)connectionDidConnect:(TCConnection *)connection {
NSString *callsid = [[connection parameters] objectForKey:#"CallSid"];
...
}
Could you see if you are able to see this callback method being called and try to provide the CallSid if possible?
