Hello,
I am working on upgrading from Asterisk 1.8 to Asterisk 11.6. One of the features we are excited for is Call Identifier Logging. However, it doesn't appear that this new Call ID is accessible from the dial plan. Ideally we would like to store this Call ID in the CDR. Does anyone know if this is possible?

I could do something like this, but it seems like a terrible hack:
same => n,Set(CALLID=${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channel ${CHANNEL}" | grep ' Call Identifer' | egrep -o 'C-[0-9a-f]+')})

Also as a side note, in the core show channel output ' Identifier' is misspelt as ' Identifer'

Hi
I tried this in ael:
        _000. => {
                Proceeding();
                callident = "${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channel ${CHANNEL}" | grep "Call Identifer" | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d[ -f2 | cut -d] -f1 | cut -d\n -f1):0:-1}";
                NoOp(${callident}});
                Dial(Motif/google/+${EXTEN:3}@voice.google.com ([email]EXTEN%3A3%7D@voice.google.com[/email]),,r);
                hangup;
        }


And worked perfectly.


It would be interesting, the developer team add a variable to channel with this data.

Which version was that added?  I don’t see it on my 11.10.0

LinkedID is already available in the dialplan: CHANNEL(linkedid)

[daffy-01 ~]# asterisk -rx "core show function CHANNEL" | grep -i link
[daffy-01 ~]#


According to funcs/func_channel.c
468 else if (!strcasecmp(data, "linkedid")) {
469 ast_channel_lock(chan);
470 if (ast_strlen_zero(ast_channel_linkedid(chan))) {
471 /* fall back on the channel's uniqueid if linkedid is unset */
472 ast_copy_string(buf, ast_channel_uniqueid(chan), len);
473 }
474 else {
475 ast_copy_string(buf, ast_channel_linkedid(chan), len);
476 }
477 ast_channel_unlock(chan);

While useful, that doesn't solve the problem of being able to store the channel's logging identifier in CDR.

Try this:
CDR(userfield) = "${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channel ${CHANNEL}" | grep "Call Identifer" | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d[ -f2 | cut -d] -f1 | cut -d\n -f1):0:-1}";

It does not appear to be documented. However, there is a reference in the Asterisk: The Definitive Guide.

Try this:
CDR(userfield) = "${SHELL(asterisk -rx "core show channel ${CHANNEL}" | grep "Call Identifer" | cut -d: -f2 | cut -d[ -f2 | cut -d] -f1 | cut -d\n -f1):0:-1}";

This isn't a suitable long term solution as it requires launching several external processes just to gain access to an internal variable. It is also likely to create bugs in the future if someone changes the output of that command. For instance if they fix the typo in "Call Identifer".

Really, a dialplan function would be best. I too don't like of an idea of using a external process to get internal variables, but when necessary...
