the best place for these types of "dev" questions would be the asterisk-users list. This list is devoted to more in depth Asterisk core development such as new features, bug fixes and so on.<BR>
<BR>
A quick reply to your question however would be Yes to AGI. Also make sure you check two great publications:<BR>

I appreciate it. What I'm actually looking for is how to do<BR>> special outbound calling handling with asterisk. I don't want to actually<BR>> change the asterisk server itself. I think I want to use AGI's ? I'm not<BR>> certain, but I *think* so. Basically I'm wanting to do the following:<BR>> <BR>> 1. Get data from mySQL database (I already have an example program for this)<BR>> 2. make an outbound call (I already have an example with a simple 'call<BR>> file')<BR>> 3. detect human or answering machine (and update the db appropriately)<BR>> 4. play an audio file (I have an example of this too).<BR>> 5. Prompt the listener to record a response (I DON'T have an example of<BR>> this).<BR>> 6. write the response to a WAV file so I can retrieve it via FTP.<BR>> <BR>> I think that's about it. Like I said, I have some sample code to get me<BR>> started, I was just wondering for a good starting place for scripting with<BR>> asterisk.<BR>> <BR>> Dave<BR><BR></body>
