What's the proper syntax for implementing directed call pickup? Running cvs-head from today (9/24/05 including Mark's fixes), and tried: exten => *99,1,Pickup(${EXTEN:3}) but that does not seem to work, and there isn't an example in the configs directory. 'show application pickup' suggests the above should work with our sip phones, but apparently I'm missing something.

You have to tell it the extension you want to pick up, it's not psychic. Doing what you're doing now would give the application no extension. Exten => _*99.,1,Pickup(${EXTEN:3}) should work, with usage being *99<extension to pickup> Joshua Colp On 9/24/05 7:28 PM, "Rich Adamson" <radamson@routers.com> wrote:> > What's the proper syntax for implementing directed call pickup? > > Running cvs-head from today (9/24/05 including Mark's fixes), and > tried: > exten => *99,1,Pickup(${EXTEN:3}) > > but that does not seem to work, and there isn't an example in the > configs directory.
