Excellent point about a prefix. But I am intrigued by the comment that I can check using a condition such as a header value on a per call basis. I will google this and see if I can find some examples. I was not aware this could be done. Can I do something similar to pull the call back from a device? So if a call is established to ext 1000 can I send something (prefix or x-header) to make Freeswitch transfer that call to me? Kinda like call pickup except that call is active so ext 1000 will get a BYE and no longer be in the call. Thanks for your time Steven. This really helps out.

This is why I want the originating phone to decide when to request the auto answer or not. So from a dial plan perspective I cannot pre-configure this behaviour.
Thanks for your response.

You're on the right lines with that insert. Nest it inside a condition so it only happens on the calls you want and it'll do what you want.

I have a specific call scenario where I want to transfer a call and have the destination (REFER-TO) end answer automatically. Basically I own both devices and I am moving the call from my mobile VoIP client to my SIP deskphone. I want it to be seamless with no ringback or alerting introduced (hence the reason I am looking at auto answer).
My SIP deskphone supports auto-answer when the Call-Info header indicates "answer-after=0". This header is specified in the REFER from the originating device (mobile VoIP client). Freeswitch does not pass this header through to the destination device.
Is there any specific setting that I can do to pass this header through? I know that I can change the dialplan using the following:
<action application="export" data="sip_auto_answer=true"/> But this triggers all calls to the destination to be auto-answered. I only want some of the calls to be answered (hence to reason I want the originator to specify this header).
