Hi Julien, Welcome to FreeSWITCH! Glad you like it. To answer your initial question: yes, what you are trying to accomplish is definitely possible. However if you want the caller ("A" in your scenario) to press only a single key then you can't use bind_meta_app (BMA). BMA requires two key presses: * and one other DTMF. That's why your scenario requires ** to trigger. If you want to have only a single key press trigger your Lua script then you'll need to use bind_digit_action (BDA). It's a bit more complicated, but it's also more powerful. Start here: http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Misc._Dialplan_Tools_bind_digit_action You should be able to match on just a single * key press. The dialplan will have something kind of like this: <action application="bind_digit_action" data="my_realm,*,exec:lua,send_email.lua,a,peer"/> <action application="digit_action_set_realm" data="my_realm"/> Tinker with that and remember the standard disclaimer<http://wiki.freeswitch.org/wiki/Reporting_Bugs#Standard_Disclaimer>before you tell me it doesn't work. :) Have fun! -MC On Mon, Apr 22, 2013 at 2:09 AM, julien terrasson < julien.terrasson@gmail.com> wrote:

Hi,

First of all, i've been discovering freeswitch recently and i found that this is an awesome piece of software. I really enjoy discovering the possibilities of the software and creating scenarios. Thanks for all the people who made this possible and available.

The reason i'm posting is that i need help me to guide me in troubleshooting..

This is the scenario i would like to acheive :* * ***************************************************

* A & B are registered on FS * A call B. * When A press the star key => B is play a prompt that ask him if he would like to receive an email. => B can then choose to accept (by pressing "1") or reject (by pressing "2") Meanwhile, A is played a specific moh that tell him that he have to wait for B answer.

This the way i tried to implement it : ******************************************

DIALPLAN :

i'm using bind_digit_action with "*" to start a lua script on the *b_leg context*. => "bind_digit_action","my_context,*,exec:lua,send_email.lua,a,*peer*"

EMAIL.LUA :

*=> Change the moh on the A leg *api:executeString("uuid_setvar ".. a_leg_uuid .. " hold_music /usr/local/freeswitch/sounds/fr/ca/june/voxService/fr_wait_email.wav");

*=> Play and request digit (B leg)* digit = session:playAndGetDigits(1, 1, 1, 5000, '#', '/usr/local/freeswitch/sounds/fr/ca/june/voxService/fr_ask_email.wav', '', '\\d+');

3/ Result : ************* When "*" is pressed for the 1st time, FS act as if moh wasn't change. It does only take into account the change the second time "*" is pressed.

i assume thats moh change can only be taken into account when bind_digit_action is over.

So i would like to know if there is any existing way to change this behaviour ? If not, what would be the best way of implementing this scenario ?

Thanks for your answers.

Julien
