unable to insert channel variable in new call leg w/in Lua script
In a Lua script I instantiate a new call leg and (attempt to) insert a new channel variable: local session = freeswitch.Session("user/1001@stuff.com") if session:hangupCause() == "SUCCESS" then session:execute("export", "my_variable=" .. myVariable) session:transfer("ext_in_mycontext", "XML", "mycontext") However, I am not able to retrieve my custom channel variable later. This call leg is established correctly but there is no point in this call leg's life where I can seem to find my variable. Is there another method by which I should try to insert a channel variable in a newly created call leg?
Actually, I think the behavior I'm seeing is that I'm not able to retrieve these variables on the A-leg, but they are present on the B-leg. How should I insert custom channel variables into the A-leg of a call originated from Lua, so that they appear in the CALL_HANGUP_COMPLETE event on this first leg?

Sorry if I wasted anyone's time. I've answered my own question. To set the variable on the A-leg of a call originated by a Lua script I put the variable here: local session = freeswitch.Session("{my_variable='" .. myVariable .. "'}user/1001@stuff.com") if session:hangupCause() == "SUCCESS" then session:transfer("ext_in_mycontext", "XML", "mycontext") On Mon, Mar 21, 2011 at 2:59 PM, elijah <elijah@crankenstein.com> wrote:
