[asterisk-users] How can get user inputs from called party after dial?

[Eyal Goltzman]

Thanks, but I'm missing something here, the dial command is where? 

 

I need to do something like:

Dial(1234)

Read(1 digit)

DoSomthing(based on digit from 1234)

 

And as far as I understand the Dial start the call and only come back (ig
you use the g option) after call finished.

You need read():

http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+cmd+Read

 

It's as easy as:

 

exten => s,n,Read(variable,,11)

exten => s,n,NoOp(${variable})

 

Above will take up to 11 digits input by user and will display it back in
NoOP on Asterisk CLI.

Hi,

I want to dial a party, play him a message and wait for his input, i.e. DTMF
digits and use them to control the rest of the dial plan.

 

How do I do it?

 

If I use Dial it will not return until the end of the call, isn't it?

 

Thanks,

 

Eyal
