asterisk users - Jun 2008 - queues and MEMBERINTERFACE for AGI script

Hi,
iam using and queue and starting an AGI script after caller connected to 
agent.
How to find out in the script the connected agent, MEMBERINTERFACE seemed to 
be not work, either as variable in the queue command and also not in the AGI 
script.
How to found out which agent is connected to calling channel?

I try to avoid to using LOCAL channels, because I like the function ringinuse.

regards
Thomas

Thomas,

In queues.conf you need to set the variable setinterfacevar=yes

You'd then pass the AGI to the Queue application with something like this:

exten => some_extension,n,Queue(somequeue,,,,,some.agi)

Then within the AGI you'd retrieve the variable like this:

my $memberinterface = $AGI->get_variable('MEMBERINTERFACE'); # Perl
example.

Hope this helps.
