1) session.originate is depricated.
2) the first arg to session.originate is *another* session (not the same one) *or* undefined.....
    session.originate(undefined, "<dial string>");
    session.originate(a_leg_session, "<dial string>");

session.originate(session, "<dial string>") is asking the session to use itself as it's own a leg which makes no sense.

This is perhaps the 4th time i have seen someone do this, can you point out where this is incorrectly documented?

BTW

effective_caller_id_name/number are variables you set on the A leg so when it's used to generate b legs that var is copied instead.

a_leg_session.setVariable("effective_caller_id_number=1234");
b_leg_session = new Session(a_leg_session, "<dial string>");

which is of course pointless because you never need to create the session if you just use the bridge application.


session.execute("bridge", "<dial string>");

even better just set the dest to a var and exit the script and use that var in your dialplan.


--- contents of get_dest.js ---
session.setVariable("dial_string", "<dial string>");

-- dialplan --
<action application="javascript" data="get_dest.js"/>
<action application="bridge" data="${dial_string}/>

hmmmm... how about using "effective_caller_id_number" instead? I think
the JavaScript paradigm is a bit different than the Lua/Perl one. Let
us know if that works or not.
