Vicidial direct call in my web app - ruby-on-rails

I need to implement direct call feature via vicidial in my web application.
Let me explain the flow to better understand what I need to do. user would be able to login in vicidial via a webpage of my app. then can call on any number by entering number.
Is there any doc or wiki available to implement this feature. Guidance in simple steps would also be appreciating.
Thanks in advance :)

We implemented something like that using a product called WombatDialer that offers good APIs and is quite easy to set up (well, easier than ViciDial).
See http://www.wombatdialer.com/manuals/WD_UserManual-chunked/ar01s08.html for an API reference.

Where can I find more information on how to sync up accounts to an APP?

When I say that, I mean if I'm creating an APP that I want to work in conjunction with say instagram, twitch, or facebook, etc, where they log in with their account first, how could I go about that? I'd want to essentially do an ADD-ON and make it more accessible/easy for users. Where could I learn more about how to do that?
It sounds a big vague I know, but I'm not sure how else to explain it.
You are looking for an OAUTH API from any of those providers, if I am understanding your post correctly.
You would read the documentation at their relative websites and then apply what is necessary to your project.

Using the ProfileAdminService to Follow a user

I'm trying to figure out if there's a way to use the ProfileAdminService (com.ibm.sbt.services.client.connections.profiles.ProfileAdminService) to get one user to follow another user.
I can see that you can do it via a put to /profiles/admin/atom/following.do but I was hoping to just use service.
I've investigated the FollowService but this only (at least that i can see) allows the current authenticated user to follow someone, but I want to be able to get any user to follow someone.
Thanks
The feature was not implemented in the IBM Social Business Toolkit SDK
you can look at the Code for ProfileAdminService and you'll see the methods do not include establishing a following relationship.
You need to use the REST API - http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/lcwiki.nsf/xpAPIViewer.xsp?lookupName=IBM+Connections+5.0+API+Documentation#action=openDocument&res_title=Following_a_person_using_the_Administration_API_ic50&content=apicontent
with the specified body. You need to craft the URL properly in order to get the feature to work via the REST API

Implementing cross domain single sign on (OAuth or impelementing my own)

I need to implement a single sign on solution for a couple of websites in my company. I want to have the minimum interaction with the user during this process. It should look like its the same application.
I have studied OAuth , stack Exchange and youtube If I understand correctly OAuth the user has allways to give permission to the app right?.
Do you think I could use OAuth or should I implement a similar mechanism like youtube or stack exchange myself? In the begining I was more inclined to that idea but I dont want to reeinvent the wheel. Also I dont have many time to impelement this.
Thank you for your help.
Of course you should not "reinvent the wheel".
You can use oAuth, even though it is not defined as SSO solution (and you wrote that you are interested in SSO solution - are you sure about the meaning of SSO?).
Have a look at SAML, which IS defined as Single Sign On, etc. But you have to be more precise about your requirements - do you want to implement the identity provider by yourself, or can you use Google Accounts, for example?

When did someone follow - Twitter API

I've been attempting to go over the Twitter API, albeit it has taken me a while and I'm being thrown back and forth between the old and the new site - however I was wondering if there is a date at all for when a user has decided to follow or; or if your able to tell when a user stopped following you?
I've been looking through here https://apiwiki.twitter.com/Twitter-API-Documentation to no avail, but I wondered if anyone knew of a way of doing it (outside of a separate monitoring system of course!)
Cheers,
Dan
The Twitter API doesn't explicitly provide dates for when a user started following you or stopped following you. This is something that you would need to monitor in some fashion.

using APIs with oauth for single user

I'm trying to make use of various APIs including twitter, youtube, etc because we want to embed recent entries (tweets, videos) on our website.
However, since I'm just retrieving my own data, I'm wondering how I can do this simpler than the multi-step process required by OAuth.
Twitter provides me with my own access token I can use directly, so that kinda works, but I can't find any such token in the YouTube documentation.
So how am I supposed to make use of the api if I just want to get a simple list of stuff? how exaclty am I supposed to authenticate my own website to use my own account?
I think i might have things all wrong and if so please point me in the right direction. I tried using rss feeds but they don't give me as much control over what I retrieve as using the API directly...
any insight or suggestions are appreciated!
see my comment above. summary: it depends on the requirements of the individual api
