[Freeswitch-users] originate through dialplan?

[Royce Mitchell III]

Hi,

I need to be able to originate a call on behalf of an agent through
the dialplan, and I cannot seem to get it to work.

I've tried "uuid_transfer <5021's uuid> 98885551212 xml default", but
it appears to destroy "transfer_on_bridge" and leaves my agent session
in a weird state when the call ends.

I've tried "originate user/5021 &bridge(98885551212) xml default", but
it rings 5021 instead of bridging the existing 5021 session to the
outbound call.

I can't seem to get anything like this to work "originate 98885551212
&bridge(user/5021)" which is what I think I really need.

The only solution I've been able to think of would involve using
transfer and then trying to catch the call termination then transfer
the agent back into the callcenter standby mode, but this feels like
it would be error-prone.

Would it be too difficult to implement a new ivr function to bridge an
existing uuid to a transfer? Maybe something like "uuid_bridgeto uuid
exten dialplan context"? Is this an outlandish request or is there
some other way of accomplishing this?

Thanks in advance
