Queue.conf autopause=yes with autoUNpause?

Asterisk Asterisk Support
1

Hi,

If I set autopause=yes I need to pause an agent for 20 sec only (for example) and then automatically unpause. This is only to allow asterisk to call the second available agent in that Q when using penalties or strategies la fewestrecent.

Is there a way to achieve this?

Thanks.

I wrote a Perl script to connect to the AMI and monitor the auto pause events. A script could unpause an agent via the AMI as well.

Are you sure you don’t want “wrapuptime”?

4

Can be an workaround… can you share that script?

Thx.

5

yes, wrapuptime is something completely different.

This script monitors for the autopause and sets a custom device state to make a BLF on the agent phone blink(RINGING) if they were paused. What you would need to do would be to wait the 20 seconds and sent the correct CLI unpause command.

I am not sure how the POE engine would handle simply waiting the 20 seconds if another event came in during that time, for instance if the second set also went unanswered. You may want to set a POE alarm that would fire at time() + 20 and then issue the CLI command.

I hope this helps.

Thanks for sharing the script. I will try it in my environment.

Thx.
