you for your reply! I know about sched_api and I use Python as a scripting
language. Also “sched_api” can be used inside python, using session.execute.
However the problem is that the “sched_api” timer starts right after you
initiate the SETUP of the second call leg. What I need is to call something,
after a call CONNECT instead. One workaround would be if I can check what time
it took to connect the call, but I do not know/see how to do this. I do not see
a CONNECT callback function either.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-bottom:12.0pt'>Do you actually need Python for
the IVR, or is it that you're comfortable using a scripting lang for an IVR? I
like using XML for IVRs, but using scripting langs does give you a bit more
power & flexibility at the cost of some resources.<br>
<br>
For the record, you can do this in the dialplan using XML and sched_api without
touching a scripting language. Checkout the sched_api channel variable on the
wiki - it may give you the functionality you need.<br>
