[asterisk-users] How to give user a prompt before connecting thecall

[Jeremy Mann]

Can I assume after exten=>2,1,Playback(thanksfortakingthecall) there's more logic, or does asterisk handle the connection between both parties at that point?

Something like this:

Dialling:

exten => s,n(dial),Dial($ZAP/G1/${number},15,M(check)gm)
exten => s,n,Dbget(next/number)
exten => s,n,Goto(dial)


{macro-check}
exten => s,n,Playback(${heresacall})
exten => s,n,Read(response,options,1)
exten => s,n,Goto(${response},1)

exten => 1,1,Macroexit

exten => 2,1,Playback(thanksfortakingthecall)


This hasn't been tested. Give it a red hot go.

Another option is to set up a queue with external numbers as members,
and set the queue as need the memebrs to accept the calls. (not that I
can remember that option)
