Hello,

Good work guys. I am having good fun using freeswitch so far. Currently, I am having a serious issue on making a call transfer happen. The scenario is simple.

1. Caller A arrives on extension 1 and is waiting on a fifo queue.
2. Caller B arrives on  extension 2 and dial plan bridges the call to Caller C.

Now after a certain period of time, I want to hang up Caller B and put Caller C in the fifo queue where Caller A is waiting. I know the UUIDs of the all 3 calls. Naively, I tried the following and failed.

1. I put the bridged call to Caller C on park .
2. I did a "hang up" to caller B.
3. I did "fifo in" for Caller C into fifo queue of caller A.

This did not work. What is the right way to do this? Do I have make sure uuid_transfer? I am using Event socket to do all of this.

-Shameem.

OK I try so hard to follow what you're doing but it makes little sense
to me.

I'm guessing you'll need to set/export hangup_after_bridge=false to
prevent the hangup from taking place on B and C!

The other option is to uuid_transfer both B and C to park using the -
both then hangup on C and then uuid_bridge A and C. Because once you
break the bridge on B and C by hanging up on B you left C hanging so
its naturally going to hangup.

-USAGE: <uuid> [-bleg|-both] <dest-exten> [<dialplan>] [<context>]

Thanks for the explanation. I was trying to find the correct way to do this as I saw several ways of doing this. I will try to explain how I did on the asterisk land.

In asterisk land, Caller A will be parked at extension 701 and Caller B "transfers" the call to extension 701 and and Caller A and C are connected and Caller B is hung up right after transfer.

In Freeswitch, Can Caller B do a "transfer" and connect caller A and C? How can I do this? Since Freeswitch does not have a concept of parked extensions.

Thank you for the help.

OK. I am little confused here. You say I can "transfer" to a parked call using "uuid_transfer" . I do not see any options there where would or how would I specify parked call in the options.

Can I do:

uuid_transfer <uuid> -both "park"

Where "park" is the destination?

You also have uuid_park... but uuid_transfer to the dialplan were the
extension calls the park application.
