[Freeswitch-users] Calling a destination and playing a pre-recorded message.

[Ciprian Dosoftei]

It is absolutely feasible to implement your use case via the dialplan;
check the first example here:

https://freeswitch.org/confluence/display/FREESWITCH/Originate+Example

If the use case is as simple as placing an outbound call, playing back some
media and then hanging up, you could implement is as:

originate
{ignore_early_media=true,originate_timeout=60}sofia/gateway/name/number
&playback(message)
