I want to pass them into conference room 201 on my FreeSwitch server, so to over simplify I will pass the caller to conference201 at myFreeSwitch.server.com, but if  the conference room has not been created then there is nothing to transfer to.(?) So is there a way that to use  a static configuration so the conference room is already created? Or must I create that conference room prior to my first request for that room, then transfer the caller after the creation of the conference room?

Joel,

  Let me try to explain using a sample taken from the default dialplan:

    <extension name="conference201">
      <condition field="destination_number" expression="^conference201$">
        <action application="answer"/>
        <action application="conference" data="201 at default"/>
      </condition>
    </extension>

  (Yes I could use variables here but I wanted to keep it simple).

  This would create the conference with the first caller that called
in.  The conference number would be 201 and it would use the "default"
profile from the conference configuration.  Any number of conferences
can be defined in the dialplan with different settings, pins, etc
depending on the profile used and the arguments passed to conference
via data=.
