Asterisk Project : Asterisk 13 Application_Queue

Created by wikibot on Aug 08, 2014

Queue()

Synopsis

Queue a call for a call queue.

Description

In addition to transferring the call, a call may be parked and then picked up by another user.

This application will return to the dialplan if the queue does not exist, or any of the join options cause the caller to not enter the queue.

This application does not automatically answer and should be preceeded by an application such as Answer(), Progress(), or Ringing().

This application sets the following channel variable upon completion:

  • QUEUESTATUS - The status of the call as a text string.
    • TIMEOUT
    • FULL
    • JOINEMPTY
    • LEAVEEMPTY
    • JOINUNAVAIL
    • LEAVEUNAVAIL
    • CONTINUE
