[asterisk-app-dev] Using ARI to set callerid for an outdial using pjsip?

[Phil Mickelson]

I can't tell from your request what you're using to interface to ARI so let
me tell you from what I have.  I use the Node ARI Client to talk to
Asterisk and ARI.  However, I just looked up the information in the current
Asterisk 15 docs and it appears to be the same.

If you look at the Channel option (
https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+15+Channels+REST+API#Asterisk15ChannelsRESTAPI-create)
you see the originateWithId POST option.  I believe that's what you want.
And then you specify the caller id you want to use in the callerId query
parameter.  It works like a champ.  I can change this easily for what ever
customer I'm making the call for.

Hope this helps.  If not, let me know and I'll try again.

Regards,
Phil Mickelson
