i am going to make a conference room that will be declared in meetme.conf but caller and callee will enter into it only when callee pick up the call (only two clients). for this my dial plan is:

[outgoing-context]
exten => s,1,SetVar(GOTO_ON_BLINDXFR=meetme^conf^1)
exten => 3010,1,Dial(SIP/Zoiper1/,20,TU(meetme))
exten => 3011,1,Dial(SIP/Zoiper2/,20,TU(meetme))

[meetme]
exten => conf,1,MeetMe(3000,iphH)
same => n,HangUp()

on running “meetme list” it shows that only callee enters into conf. room:

Conf Num Parties Marked Activity Creation Locked
3000 0001 N/A 01:29:14 Static No **
*** Total number of MeetMe users: 1

my query is:

  1. i am using “GOTO_ON_BLINDXFR” to direct caller to the MeetMe().is it true if not then how caller gets into conference room when callee pick up phone?

You can use option G( context^exten^priority ) - If the call is answered, transfer the calling party to the specified priority and the called party to the specified priority plus one.

Example: Dial into ConfBridge using ‘G’ option

same => n,Dial(PJSIP/alice,G(jump_to_here))
same => n(jump_to_here),Goto(confbridge)
same => n,Goto(confbridge)
same => n(confbridge),ConfBridge(${EXTEN})

perfect! thanks…:grinning: I know about this option but not gave it a try because i read “You cannot use any options that would affect the post-answer state if this option is used.” about it here. what i understand from this line is that i cannot use any option that has some kind of effect on the channel like say ‘H’ or ‘T’ from caller side???
