Hi.

(Asterisk 16.2.1)

I'm using AMI Originate to initiate calls, and I'm passing some
additional
data in to the dialplan context using the Variable: parameter.  Works fine.

Now I need to do the same thing but from another context in my dialplan, so I
was expecting to use the Originate() dialplan command, but how do I pass the
additional data?  I don't see any Variable: equivalent parameter.

Thanks for any pointers.


Antony.
