Hi.

I want to put a channel on hold in my dialplan.

https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/mod_dptools tells me that
there is a command "hold" to do this, but the link for the documentation is
https://wiki.freeswitch.org/index.php?title=Misc._Dialplan_Tools_hold&action=edit&redlink=1
which does not take me anywhere useful.

Can someone point me at the correct page for this command?


Thanks,


Antony.

The Wayback machine reveals that there has never been content at that
page (https://web.archive.org/web/20150912221709/https://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Misc._Dialplan_Tools_hold),
however the applications 'hold' and 'unhold' do exist (do 'show
applications' in fs_cli, and they're listed, along with the command
syntax). I will add Confluence pages for them, so at least the syntax
from the 'show applications' command is listed. I've never used the
commands, so I'm not sure I can put much content in the pages, so feel
free to add with whatever other information you discover when you use
the command.

Martin.

You just park it and play music, there is NO HOLD/UNHOLD in the manner you're needing.

Antony,
For hold FS does not send reINVITE with SDP containing a=sendonly to upstream PBX.
You need to change the source code to do that.

It turns out from looking at the code that both the command uuid_hold
and the dptools:hold application actually call the same underlying
function (switch_ivr_hold_uuid) to achieve the holding.

Antony,
What is your Freeswitch version? uuid_hold in FS 1.8.5 does not send out reINVITE with sendonly.
