Sharing Availability<br />

Watching others’ Availability<br />

To be able to see the availability of another person, either add that person to Contacts with the “Show this<br />

contact’s availability” field checked, or modify the existing contact in<strong>for</strong>mation so that this field is checked. For<br />

more in<strong>for</strong>mation, see page 36.<br />

As soon as the person is set up in this way in your Contacts, <strong>Bria</strong> sends them a notification request. The request<br />

asks that you be able to see that person’s availability. If the person allows this request, then the icon beside their<br />

name (in your Contacts) becomes color coded, so you can determine their availability.<br />

Allowing Other Parties to See your Availability (Publishing your Availability)<br />

Continuing from above, when the other person allows the notification request, your name is added to their<br />

contact list. As soon as you are added to their list, a request is sent back to you requesting that they be able to<br />

see you. You can reply to this request to complete the sharing loop.<br />

Troubleshooting: When You Cannot See Availability<br />

If you have multiple accounts set up, icons may remain gray when you expect them to be color coded. For<br />

in<strong>for</strong>mation on how this can happen, see “SIP Account Properties – Presence” on page 73.<br />

The following chart illustrates how the sharing of availability occurs.<br />

Joseph<br />

Kokila<br />

Joseph adds Kokila to his contact<br />

list with “Show this contact’s<br />

Availability” checked<br />

Availability icon is added<br />

<strong>for</strong> Kokila, colored gray<br />

Joseph’s eyeBeam sends a “let me see you”<br />

notification request to Kokila<br />

Kokila receives a notification<br />

request and responds by clicking<br />

“Allow and add”<br />

“Allow” response sent<br />

Joseph is added to Kokila’s<br />

contact list<br />

Privacy rule is created <strong>for</strong><br />

Joseph with “allow” and “show”<br />

Availability icon is added<br />

<strong>for</strong> Joseph, colored gray<br />

Kokila’s availability icon<br />

turns green<br />

Now that Joseph is in Kokila’s contact list, Kokila’s<br />

eyeBeam sends “Let me see you” notification request to Joseph<br />

Joseph receives a notification<br />

request and responds<br />

“Allow”<br />

Response sent<br />

Joseph’s availability icon<br />
