[Freeswitch-users] Call Intercept

[cmrienzo at gmail.com]

That channel variable was fetched in the routing state before the lua application was executed.   You can either transfer to a new extension to execute the intercept or execute the intercept in the lua script.

I use the LUA script because I do some logic to decide whether to ring just the user's SIP phone, the user's cell phone, or a combination of both simultaneously.  Bottom line is that the LUA script does something like this after building the originate string in dialString:
