Yes, you are correct in this case. However if any of (Exten, Context, Priority) is in the Originate request it will fail with "Extension does not exist.". Personally I believe the code should be smart enough to figure out that you want to use Application/Data method instead of Exten/Context/Priority, if you have specified Application and Data headers. And this was the case for older Asterisk 1.4.X releases. This also might cause backward compatibility issue for the software that was using Asterisk 1.4.X as it did for us.

> Asterisk 11 ManagerAction_Originate description states "Generates an outgoing call to a Extension/Context/Priority or Application/Data". However I have noticed that only Extension/Context/Priority is working. When trying to use Application/Data the manager generates an error:
> Response: Error
> Message: Extension does not exist.
