I'll get this on the wiki right away. Clarification questions: does one need to
subscribe to the background job just once per session in order to receive all
subsequent bgapi events? Also, is it the case that subscribing to
"events plain all" does not include bgapi events? I'm testing
and it looks like that's the case but I want to confirm.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

style='font-size:12.0pt'>when you do bgapi you actually have to subscribe to
the background job event to get the results.<br>
Since it's an async operation, the command is executed in it's own thread and
when the results are collected they are put in the event's body.<br>
<br>
The bgapi returns a job-uuid that you need to save and use it to tie the
background_job event to the original request.<br>
<br>
The decision to use api vs bgapi is weather or not you want to get the results
right away or not. So usually show channels etc is a case where you want
to do it in the foreground.<br>
<br>
Also to further complicate things, bgapi is an event socket command only so it
cannot be used from cli xml-rpc etc.<br>
BUT, there is actually a *bgapi* FSAPI command you can execute to run any FSAPI
in the same fashion.<br>
<br>
so raw event socket command<br>
api bgapi show channels<br>
<br>
is the same as raw event socket command<br>
<br>
bgapi show channels<br>
<br>
but, you can also say "bgapi show channels" from the
cli/xml-rpc/dialplan etc as well.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

wondered if there are recommendations for when to use each one. I can
definitely see why you'd use bgapi for an "originate" command.
I didn't see anything on the wiki that discussed when to use api vs.
bgapi so I'll be happy to write up a blurb on the recommended use of each one.</span></font><o:p></o:p></p>
