[asterisk-users] Any way of creating a file to write to from the dialplan, or must I use AGI?

[Jonathan H]

Yes, that would also work (thanks!).

It just seems a bit hacky - STAT...GotoIf... System..,Return...FILE....

Has there been any previous discussion as to why FILE can't/won't
create a file and write to it in one shot?

If so, what was the outcome? Should I suggest it?

Thanks!
