[Freeswitch-users] Would like to pickup a call that is on hold on another extension
I would like to be able to place a call on hold on one extension, walk to another phone and then dial a sequence (like the barge sequence) say 55+extension number and have the call taken off hold and transferred to the extension I am on. Has anyone done this? (Before I try and work it out for myself!)

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Would like to pickup a call that is on hold on another extension
You would use a combination of storing the UUID... in the internal db... see insert in the default dialplan... then a code to get that out of the db... then run intercept on it using the value returned from the db. See default config's Store it something like this: action application=db data=insert/last_dial_ext/$ {dialed_extension}/${uuid}/ Then use it something like this: extension name=intercept-ext condition field=destination_number expression=^\*\*(\d+)$ action application=answer/ action application=intercept data=${db(select/ last_dial_ext/$1)}/ action application=sleep data=2000/ /condition /extension /b On Jan 15, 2009, at 7:36 PM, Scott Ellis wrote: I would like to be able to place a call on hold on one extension, walk to another phone and then dial a sequence (like the barge sequence) say 55+extension number and have the call taken off hold and transferred to the extension I am on.

Wouldnt that be call parking?? http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Misc._Dialplan_Tools_park I have been told that would be better o use mod_fifo instead... It would be nice if someone would post something on mod_fifo wiki page about how to do fancy call parking with mod_fifo (even tho it might be pretty easy).

Well, sorry. That would be better, wouldnt it? http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Mod_fifo#Park_Time_Out_Example Mesquita On Jan 15, 2009, at 11:36 PM, Scott Ellis wrote: I would like to be able to place a call on hold on one extension, walk to another phone and then dial a sequence (like the barge sequence) say 55+extension number and have the call taken off hold and transferred to the extension I am on.

It is kind of - but slightly different, and simpler for the users.

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Would like to pickup a call that is on hold on another extension
Thanks Brian, I had started looking at this, and I think I was heading in the direction you describe - now I can pursue that with a bit more confidence! So even if we do not originate the call, the last dialled extension would still be valid as it would be set up during the bridging process? (I think I need another method to collect the UUID of the leg of the bridge that initiated the call - or just the UUID that is active for that extension) Scott Brian West wrote: You would use a combination of storing the UUID... in the internal db... see insert in the default dialplan... then a code to get that out of the db... then run intercept on it using the value returned from the db.

The key is the uuid.. In FreeSWITCH the uuid is the only bit you really need to know to do anything with the session. /b On Jan 15, 2009, at 9:12 PM, Scott Ellis wrote: Thanks Brian, I had started looking at this, and I think I was heading in the direction you describe - now I can pursue that with a bit more confidence!

Re: [Freeswitch-users] Would like to pickup a call that is on hold on another extension
So for this scenario, I think I need to store the UUID of both sides before every bridge that I do, that way it will always reflect the most recently connected call to an extension - either as source or destination. I found the log action, so now I can spit out debug information as I work this out! Scott p.s. Thanks for all your help, FreeSwitch (and the community) rock! Brian West wrote: The key is the uuid..
