You'll want to look at the read application.

Hello All,
                  I want to collect the Digits input by the Callee after 
the Call is connected, i use the Dial Application to connect the Caller 
and Calllee, please
can someone tell me how to do this ?  ( Asterisk is in the media path ( 
Asterisk Version 1.4)  ) .

I have looked at the different Dial Application options, but could not 
find what i want or i missed something ?

Thank you.

Best regards,
Simith

[Simith] I could work out a solution using the application map feature 
in features.conf  to collect the digits from the Callee, Maybe there is 
a better way, but this works for me !

calleedigitcollect1 => 1,self/callee,Macro,redirect-caller1


Thanks to the people who built Asterisk, looks like anything is possible :-)
