[asterisk-users] agi get_data noanswer

[Tech Support]

    What you may want to check out is the PlayTones and Ringing applications in your dial plan. Asterisk will answer the call, but your users won't know that because all they hear is the call still ringing. After a certain amount of time passes, you can send them directly to voicemail, hangup, run your scripts, or anything else you want to do with the call. My dial plan snippet looks like this. Just an option. 

 

exten => s,n(ringing),Answer

exten => s,n,PlayTones(ring)

exten => s,n,Ringing

exten => s,n,Wait(${TIMEOUT})

exten => s,n,GotoIf($["${BLOCKDEST}" = "3"]?s-NA-VOICEMAIL,1)

exten => s,n,GotoIf($["${CUSTCALLBLOCKACTION}" = "3"]?s-NA-VOICEMAIL,1) ; 

exten => s,n,PlayTones(congestion)

exten => s,n,Congestion(10)

exten => s,n,Hangup

Subject: [asterisk-users] agi get_data noanswer

 

Hi Guys..
I am making an anoucement machine that is not allowed to "answer" the call due to a billing issue.
I found that Playback with "noanwser" is usefull in this case.

$AGI->exec('Playback',"$message","noanswer")}


But when i request some values to the user with get_data, i think there is an answer anywere.

Is there a way to get_data without answering the call?

Thanks in advance!!
