Shan,

If you are using Lua you can access that information by calling a Lua script from the dialplan and utilizing the API.

api = freeswitch.API();

local channelCount = api:executeString("show channels");

session:consoleLog("crit", "here I am I worked," .. channelCount);

This printed “[CRIT] switch_cpp.cpp:1284 here I am I worked, uuid,direction,created,created_epoch,name,state,cid_name,cid_num,ip_addr,dest,application,application_data,dialplan,context,read_codec,read_rate,read_bit_rate,write_codec,write_rate,write_bit_rate,secure,hostname,presence_id,presence_data,callstate,callee_name,callee_num,callee_direction,call_uuid,sent_callee_name,sent_callee_num,initial_cid_name,initial_cid_num,initial_ip_addr,initial_dest,initial_dialplan,initial_context

You will more than likely need to parse this to meet your needs.

For further information on the Lua API there is a wiki doc that might help you.

Is there a way in scripting like in lua  like using  freeswitch.API() through which i can get active channels .

I can get active channels  in fs cli by running command "active channels".But how to do it in scripts.
