Re: [asterisk-users] Best way to know a call is being transfered
Unfortunately, the transfer AMI events were introduced just in Asterisk13. But, you can set the __TRANSFER_CONTEXT variable and probably the __GOTO_ON_BLINDXFR (this one I never used) to control the transfer in your own way. https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+Standard+Channel+Variables Regards, Marcelo H.

Re: [asterisk-users] Best way to know a call is being transfered
Hello thank you for your answer. However this does not help me to know when a call is being transfered. My question is simple : if A calls B, and then B tranfers (unattened or attended) the call to C, how can I know this happens ?? I see it happening on the CLI, but how can I "catch" this, for example in the dialplan logic ? Or through AMI perhaps ? Kind regards. J.

[asterisk-users] Best way to know a call is being transfered
Hello using Asterisk 1.8.32.3. What is the best way of knowing a call is being transfered (attended and unattended) ? And also knowing whereto (sip user) the call is being transfered and who is the transferer ? So I can log this information. Kind regards.
