Re: [Asterisk-java-users] API Capabilities

[Albert B. <ape...@gm...>]

Hi, reading your explanation I think that what you need is to integrate
the AMI interface to your system.
AMI stands for Asterisk Manager Interface. This interface let your app
connect to
an Asterisk server and start getting events on different call status (
NewChannel, SetVariable, Hangup, etc )
for you to store and do what you need with them. Through AMI you can also
originate calls by bridging channels
initiated by you. AMI together with AGI is the best way to implement almost
any application.
