[asterisk-users] Adding own info in AMI

Hello (again)

When doing a STATUS request on the AMI, I get informations like these:

Event: Status
Privilege: Call
Channel: SIP/311-08b97790
CallerID: 310
CallerIDName: Aastra
Account:
State: Ringing
Uniqueid: 1157967815.19

My problem is that I want to tie my own information to a call,
actually to tie the number that the SIP extension has called. For some
reason this information is not available in the AMI, at least not in
the STATUS messages.

I discovered that I in the dialplan could set the Acoountcode to the
called number, and then get it shown in the STATUS messages, but this
of cause gives a lot of other problems.

Is it possible to for instance to set a uservariable in the dialplan,
and get it shown in the manager interface?

Something like:

Event: Status
Privilege: Call
Channel: SIP/311-08b97790
CallerID: 310
CallerIDName: Aastra
Account:
MyVariable: 12345678
State: Ringing
Uniqueid: 1157967815.19

Other good ideas are welcome :-)
