Are you trying to do something like billing? If so using variables or anything getvar related will result in pool swell.
Billing is out of band, or inband with things like nibble bill, which is just an implementation of a core idea of being able to nibble from a balance using the session heartbeats.
No, this is nothing to do with billing. I'm basically just looking for the same value which would be logged in a verbose logfile output against each dialplan action.

Hi.
I'm looking for a variable I can access in the dialplan (I use XML if it matters) which will tell me the current time (when I read the variable) in the format 2022-11-02 12:34:56.789789
If that's not available, but a microsecond-resolution Epoch timestamp is, what would be the function to convert this to the above human format?
https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/Switch+core+variables tells me about variables which are set after a channel is hung up, so they're no use during call setup, and
https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/Channel+Variables doesn't seem to have anything which represents "now".
Can anyone suggest where I should be looking to find such variables?
Thanks,
Antony.
