<span style="font-size:14px">I also wanted to add that I am now attempting to just throw channel variables in as a way to pass arguments since I cannot pass them directly to Stasis. When I attempt to originate a new call with /channels/ and then right after I get the ID, I try to /channels/{channelID}/variable?appargs=blah but get the error Channel not in Stasis application. I can see that it's sent from /res/ari/resource_channels.c in find_control (from ast_ari_channels_set_channel_var). I understand that, at that point in time, while executing other Asterisk Apps, Stasis does not "own" the channel (if I understand that correctly) - but </span><span style="font-size:14px">shouldn't it still be possible to set channel variables regardless of who owns the channel at the time the variable is attempting to be set? </span></div>

<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">(2) The body parameters of the originate POST request allow you to pass channel variables to the channel on creation. ARI will set those on the channel immediately after its creation.<br>
<br></div><div class="gmail_extra">(3) It is a little odd, but when you originate a channel, ARI does not necessarily own the created channel. If you spin it off into the dialplan, for example, it starts running dialplan - and isn't in a Stasis application. If you do originate it to a Stasis application, than I would expect you to be able to manipulate the channel once you get the StasisStart event for the channel.<br>
