[asterisk-users] How to send variables through AMI originate and read those variables in context?

[Jarrod Lash]

Bruce,

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+manager+API

In the AMI do :
Variable: crap1=data
Variable: crap2=data
Variable: crap3=data


In the dialplan variables will be in the format..
${crap1}


Also as an FYI.. Look at cepstral in place of Festival...
