<h3><a name="Asterisk11Function_PRESENCE_STATE-Synopsis"></a>Synopsis</h3>

<p>Get or Set a presence state.</p>
<h3><a name="Asterisk11Function_PRESENCE_STATE-Description"></a>Description</h3>



<p>The PRESENCE_STATE function can be used to retrieve the presence from any presence provider. For example:</p>

<p>NoOp(SIP/mypeer has presence ${PRESENCE_STATE(SIP/mypeer,value)})</p>

<p>NoOp(Conference number 1234 has presence message ${PRESENCE_STATE(MeetMe:1234,message)})</p>

<p>The PRESENCE_STATE function can also be used to set custom presence state from the dialplan. The <tt>CustomPresence:</tt> prefix must be used. For example:</p>

<p>Set(PRESENCE_STATE(CustomPresence:lamp1)=away,temporary,Out to lunch)</p>

<p>Set(PRESENCE_STATE(CustomPresence:lamp2)=dnd,,Trying to get work done)</p>

<p>You can subscribe to the status of a custom presence state using a hint in the dialplan:</p>

<p>exten =&gt; 1234,hint,CustomPresence:lamp1</p>

<p>The possible values for both uses of this function are:</p>

<p>not_set | unavailable | available | away | xa | chat | dnd</p>
