Campaign Contacts

Hi
I've been experimenting with use of this API to schedule callbacks.. i.e. a customer opts to exit a queue and be called back. The script uses this API to insert a callback (an outbound contact for the customer in a pre-configured campaign).
This works well enough, for the first contact. However, if a second request is made to the same campaign, the API accepts the insert, but the callback does not happen. I believe this is becuase the campaing already has called that number, so the default de-duplication is preventing the second call.
Is it possible to work around this, or perhaps 'force' the contact insertion?
Thanks
Aaron

Hi Aaron,
 
At this point, there is no way to force the insertion of duplicate contacts.  The same contact can be inserted only after  48* hours the contact was first imported.
 
*48 hours is the maximum time.
CCX Engine makes all the closed dialinglist records inactive every midnight (local time) . This  scheduled job would look for contacts there were closed prior to the  previous midnight (e.g: when run on 03-Feb-2013 00:00:30 , all closed records prior to 02-Feb-2013 00:00:30 ) and those records would be made inactive.
Once this is done, the same contact  can be imported again to the campaign.
 
 
Regards,
Jayaram.

Hi Jayaram
Thanks - is there any plan to change this in a future release to allow more direct control of the contacts within a campaign?
