Followup question: I can use api to send “show
channels” or “oz list” but when I use bgapi to send those
commands I don’t get anything back from the event socket. Any
thoughts?

socket: api vs. bgapi
Question:
Are there compelling reasons *not* to use api for simple commands like “show
channels” or “oz list”? Since api is blocking and bgapi
is non-blocking I just wondered if there are recommendations for when to use
each one. I can definitely see why you’d use bgapi for an
“originate” command. I didn’t see anything on the wiki
that discussed when to use api vs. bgapi so I’ll be happy to write up a
blurb on the recommended use of each one.
Thanks,
MC
