Call parking and pickup

Hi guys,

I have call parking and pickup and it works fine but problem is i have 3 different group of people who will park and pickup their own extensions. the setup works fine for 1 group because there is one parking and extension and they know it will be parked from 701-710

Is there anyway i can define different parking extensions and different pickup slots?

Thanks

Although I’ve never used it, such an option is documented in the sample configuration file. E.g. see https://github.com/mojolingo/asterisk/blob/master/configs/res_parking.conf.sample starting from the beginning.

I guess for parking you might use the PARKINGEXTEN variable take a look to the app https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Application_Park

I have worked on create custom parking lot using that application

The same as for automatically assigned extensions, you need to include the special context that contains parking lot extensions (parkedcallls), or you need to explicitly call ParkedCall.
