[asterisk-biz] auto-answering an originated call, dialplan / manager interface problem

[Mueller, Alexander]

Hi Rick,

thanks for the mail, but my intention was, that the people do *not* have to press anything on the phone, perhaps I didn't make that clear enough.

You write what happens, when they pick up the phone ... that's too late for me, I need to originate the call and have the phone pick up automatically.

To be more precise, the user originates the call by clicking on his computer in an address book and has his headset on ... no need for him to search for the phone and press something more :-)

Alex

If you initiate an Originate and specify an outbound 
carrier/channel/technology as the 'Channel', the execution will be 
punted into the Exten, Priority and Context you specify when the call 
is answered on the far-end -- e.g. a SIP 200 OK.

For example, here's how I Rickroll people:

Action: Originate
Channel: SIP/5551212 at my_termination_carrier
Context: rickroll
Exten: 1
Priority: 1
Callerid: xxxxxxxxxx
Timeout: 30000

exten => 1,1,Wait(1)
exten => 1,n,Playback(never-gonna-give-you-up)
exten => 1,n,Hangup


Their phone rings, they pick up, and about a second later, Rick croons 
at them.
