[asterisk-users] Multiple Channel Variables with AMI Originate

[Matthew Edmondson]

Hi guys I seem to be having a problem, I don't know if it's a bug or whether
I'm just doing it incorrectly.

I want to set about 3 channel variables when I originate a call via AMI.

All the documentation I have found says to do it like this:

Variable: variable1=value|variable2=value|variable3=value


However when I do this it runs them all together and I end up with:

variable1 = "value|variable2=value|variable3=value"


Instead of:

variable1 = "value"
variable2 = "value"
variable3 = "value"


So I think the delimiters are not working.

I tried just adding multiple "Variable:" lines one for each, but it only
sets the first one and ignores the rest.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks! --Matt

I do this:

Action: Originate
Channel: Local/***@cfmc_cdi_private
Exten: queue_answer
Context: cfmc_cdi_private
Priority: 1
Variable: CfMC_ActionID=CallAndQueue
Variable: CfMC_QueueToUse=tqe
Variable: CfMC_AgentToUse=1001
Variable: CfMC_DialInfo=SIP/GXP280_18
Variable: CfMC_RingTimeout=30
Variable: CfMC_DoAMD=No
ActionID: CallAndQueue
Async: true


and things work as expected. This is in recent versions of 1.4 and 1.6.0.

Thanks Jim.

We're using the 1.6.2 rc's. I'll try it on 1.6.0 and see if it works. If it
does then I guess its a bug in the new releases.

Problem is we need features of the 1.6.2.

With the change in application delimiter came this change, as it uses the
application delimiter parsing code. Therefore, the variable delimiter is a
comma, not the pipe.
