What is MIME type "application/ccxml+xml"?

A MIME type is a string that tells browsers and other tools how to handle a particular kind of file.

application/ccxml+xml is a MIME type for files that use Call Control XML. It tells your system that the file contains XML-based instructions designed for managing call flows in telephony systems.

This MIME type is used for processing and automating telephone call control. It allows servers and applications to execute commands that manage call routing, session setup, and event handling.

• It enables interactive voice response (IVR) systems.
• It supports automated call management in call centers and telephony gateways.
• It integrates with other XML standards to extend control over communication devices.

Files with this MIME type use the file extension CCXML. The structure in these files helps systems interpret and trigger telephony commands accurately.

For further details, check the W3C CCXML Specification.
