Thanks !

Yes. I serialized the ESL event I got it for SendRecv and see the output now.
Thanks again for all your help.

You're setting eslEvent as the return value of SendRecv but not inspecting it and then overwriting it with RecvEvent.

Have you tried checking what the SendRecv return value looks like serialised? It should be there.

Thanks Anthony for the response!

I am using ESL library that comes with Freeswitch source code. 
I am trying to use C# ESL APIs as below to send the 'api status' command to the Freeswitch VM from a remote server.

            //Initializes a new instance of ESLconnection, and connects to the host $host on the port $port, and supplies $password to freeswitch
            ESLconnection eslConnection = new ESLconnection(hostName, "8021", password);

            if (eslConnection.Connected() != ESL_SUCCESS)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Error connecting to FreeSwitch");
                return null;
            }

            Console.WriteLine("successful connection");

            ESLevent eslEvent = eslConnection.SendRecv("api status");
            if (eslEvent == null)
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Error sending command");
                return;
            }
            if (eslConnection.Connected() == ESL_SUCCESS)
            {
               eslEvent = eslConnection.RecvEvent();
               Console.WriteLine(eslEvent.Serialize(String.Empty));
            }

With this am able to connect successfully. But unable to see any response.
I see the same symptoms 'conference xml_list' etc.

But If I subscribe for HEARTBEAT event as below instead of 'api status' shown above, I see the events coming at regular intervals.
            ESLevent eslEvent = eslConnection.SendRecv("event xml HEARTBEAT");

Am I using something wrong above?

Thanks
Ramesh

Hi everyone, 

I am looking for a way to get the status of a Freeswitch from a remote server through ESL API command. I tried using SendRecv and Api methods of ESLconnection class to send the 'status' command. But I don't receive the response. However, after further reading through the confluence, I realized that it is probably because, 'status' command output doesn't include with a header named "content-type" that has a value of "api/response" or "command/reply" and both SendRecv and Api methods look for this.

So, the question is what other ESL methods shall be used to get the status of freeswitch?

Thanks
Ramesh
