[Freeswitch-users] config / scripting questions from voice mail integration attempt

[Anthony Minessale]

Dialplan apps are functions you run on a session
api funcs are not related to a call, they are to invoke certain behaviors


you can make a variable that is the entire data portion of the voicemail
call

<action application="javascript" data="vm.js"/>
<action application="voicemail" data="${vm_data}"/>

then in vm.js set vm_data var to the entire args to the voicemail app

in this setup you can assume the js will set the var and then the vm_data
will be expanded in time.
