How to Unpark a Call

Question

I want to hold/unhold my calls using Asterisk AMI. I have used Park AMI Action. Then, My phone disconnects, and Senders phone plays a music. How to Unpark this Call ? Can anybody help me Please ?

  UnParkAction upac = new UnParkAction(channel, channel1, "360000");
  ManagerResponse rr = ApplicationVariables.manager.SendAction(upac); //Sending it to Manager COnnection

Answer 1

You can use Redirect AMI command.

This solves the unparking issue but with a difference that the initiator will still need to answer a call. In other words he does not fully retrieve the call without any action at all.

In more detail:

When you park the call you need to have both channels:

(1) Channel to be parked

(2) Channel that makes the park

Store in a static variable (1).

Then when you finished parking do the following:

Initiate redirect call from the Channel parked (essentially what you have stored) and as destination, your number.

Example URL:

https://<YOUR AMI URL>?action=Redirect&channel=" + channelParked + "&context=" + context + "&priority=1&Exten=" + myPhoneNumber;
