[Freeswitch-users] outbound_caller_id vs origination_caller_id_number

[Michael Collins]

One place those variables is used is in the vanilla dialplan, specifically
dialplan/default/01_example.xml. Note that the
outbound_caller_id_name/number variables are also set in the directory
entries, so when an auth'd user makes an outbound call the value for that
user is applied.

When performing an originate API I always use origination_caller_id_number.
I can't think of a good reason not to set it every time.
