Hi all,
I am using the Asterisk Manager API to originate calls and it is working well,
when a call is placed the local phone rings, once you pick it up you can here
the call ringing the other end. Now, I am using Polycom IP 300 and I have
them setup to auto-answer if I set the ALERT_INFO variable to "Ring Answer".
This works fine from my dial plan but I can't figure out how to set
ALERT_INFO from the Manager API. Basically I want calls that are originated
from the Manager API to automatically take place on the speaker phone.
I have tried
Action: SetVar
Channel: sip/pete_desk
Variable: ALERT_INFO
Value: Ring Answer
but it gives me about no such channel but this is the same channel I use to
place the call immediately after attempting to set the variable.
Any ideas?
I have 2 extension entries for all my auto-answer phones.
If you dial just the normal extension (like 1234) it does the
normal answer thing.
If you dial an * before the extension (like *1234) it does
the auto answer thing.
So you could just use:
Channel: sip/*1234 or
Channel: sip/*pete_dest
