The problem is this:

exten => 43,1,Dial(SIP/phone_1&Zap/g1/43)

I need to find out who picked up the call not who was originally called. ${EXTEN} will always contain 43 in this scenario. It will not help you in pickup or delayed dial scenarios in which phone A rings 10 seconds and after that phone B and phone C start ringing as well. We need to see if the customer acutally spoke to user A, B or C regardless of who was called originally.


Kind regards,
