[Asterisk-Users] SetCallerID({$NEWCALLERID})

[Steven Frazier]

I see the problem, sorry for the post

The $ in the wrong position.

wrong
exten => 7403134175,5,SetCallerID({$NEWCALLERID})
right
exten => 7403134175,5,SetCallerID(${NEWCALLERID})

I am trying to SetCallerID to a variable I have defined.  This obviously is
wrong.  It actually sets the caller ID to $NEWCALLERID.  I have search
through the examples on wiki but wasn't able to find something similar to
see what I was doing wrong.  Could someone tell me the correct way to
SetCallerID to a defined variable?
 exten => 2125551212,5,SetCallerID({$NEWCALLERID}) 
 exten => 2125551212,6,Noop(${CALLERID}) 
Actually shows $NEWCALLERID instead of the contents of $NEWCALLERID.
