<!DOCTYPE html><html><head><title></title><style type="text/css">p.MsoNormal,p.MsoNoSpacing{margin:0}</style></head><body><div style="font-family:Arial;">Quite simple - in my web app I have a button where a user can see a list of calls in a queue, and click a button to initiate an eavesdrop operation that rings his own extension with the various eavesdrop config for that call. Elsewhere I have a list of numbers that requested a callback, and pressing a button allows the user to initiate a callback to that number by sending a bgapi originate to their own extension and once answered we bridge it to the final destination. Both of these hang until the user answers their device.<br></div><div style="font-family:Arial;"><br></div><div style="font-family:Arial;">Mike<br></div><div style="font-family:Arial;"><br></div><div style="font-family:Arial;"><br></div><div>On Wed, Oct 23, 2019, at 2:36 PM, Guillermo Ruiz Camauer wrote:<br></div><blockquote type="cite" id="qt"><div dir="ltr"><div style="font-family:Arial;">I gather that this is an INBOUND ESL connection (your program connects to FreeSwitch).<br></div><div>Usually, an INBOUND ESL connection is long lived, taking care of many simultaneous calls.

It all works, except for "exit", to which FS responds with <i>Reply-Text: +OK bye </i>but does not actually proceed to close the connection and issue a <i>Content-Type: text/disconnect-notice </i>response until the (supposedly in the background) originate is rejected or answered.
