Hi
I set the limit to 1 on the extension like that

<action application="limit_hash" data="${destination_number}
${destination_number} 1" />

When I am trying to make a call the that destination i transfered to
limit_exceeded dialplan, just like I want

The problem is, that when I am trying to make a call using "originate" I
am not getting the limitation.
Why is that?

because your not running limit at all when you are doing an originate
directly. You can use loopback to originate through a dialplan
extension.

limit is for inbound calls
you cannot call it after you already made the call.
The correct approach would be to not make the call at all.

you could maybe use the limit FSAPI interface with apiExecute to check if the limit was exceeded and
then not bother to place the call to begin with.

otherwise it's sort of like putting a prisoner in the electric chair then giving him his trial.

I suggest you study FS more because if you can't tell what to do with the info provided
you have some fundamentals to review before proceeding.
