That fixed it. The fix was to change hours to ${hours} in the condition field.

Thanks,

Josh

Variables are not fields. Fields are a specific set of attributes of the call... you can however check variables in a condition, it just has a slightly different syntax. Try this.

<extension name="public_did">

    <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(.*)$">

        <action inline="true" application="set" data="hours=1"/>

    </condition>

    <condition field="${hours}" expression="^1$">

        <action application="answer"/>

        <action application="ivr" data="GAC-BH"/>

        <action application="hangup"/>

        <anti-action application="answer"/>

        <anti-action application="ivr" data="GAC-BH"/>

        <anti-action application="hangup"/>

    </condition>

  </extension>

Also note I changed your regex of "1" to "^1$". The first matches any string containing a digit 1 including 10, 21, 100, 200351. The latter matches the start (^) and end ($) of the string so will only match the exact string of 1.

I am trying to set a variable in the dial plan and use it on a condition. I have pushed the variable setting as close to the condition for testing and this is what I get. Why does it not see the variable set?

<extension name="public_did">

    <condition field="destination_number" expression="^(.*)$">

        <action inline="true" application="set" data="hours=1"/>

    </condition>

    <condition field="hours" expression="1">

        <action application="answer"/>

        <action application="ivr" data="GAC-BH"/>

        <action application="hangup"/>

        <anti-action application="answer"/>

        <anti-action application="ivr" data="GAC-BH"/>

        <anti-action application="hangup"/>

    </condition>

  </extension>

Here is the console output
