[Freeswitch-users] using fs api to originate a call and record it

I'm extremely new to freeswitch, and anything like it, so please forgive me! I'd like to be able to use the API to originate a call and record it. So far, I have the following figured out: originate sofia/sipinterface_1/912625551212@141.xxx.xxx.xxx &record(/tmp/myrecording.wav) And it dials out to an external number and successfully records the conversation. But, it also records the ringing. When I was trying this through a dialplan, I found an option: <action application="set" data="media_bug_answer_req=true"/> which delayed the recording until the call was answered. Is there a way to do the same thing through the API? Thanks! Wes
