[Asterisk-java-users] Originate a call, play recordings, and interact with callee

[Patrick A. <pat...@gm...>]

Hi,

I am hoping to replace an AS/400 IVR application with the Asterisk
Manager API. The application is a WAN monitor. When an IP device fails
the IVR calls the administrator of the device. Each administrator can
have up to 4 phone numbers. Each device has a primary, secondary, and
third administrator. The IVR app rotates through the administrators
and their phone numbers until someone responds.

I understand that the OriginateAction can connect to an extension or
an application. I have successfully called extension 1000 and played
back a recording the the following bit of code.

  OriginateAction originateAction = new OriginateAction();
  originateAction.setChannel("SIP/1000");
  originateAction.setApplication("Playback");
  originateAction.setData("Press1ToListPress2ToAckAllPress3ToAckForAnHourOrMore");
  managerConnection.login();
  ManagerResponse response = managerConnection.sendAction(originateAction);

How can I retrieve the digit entered by the callee and play back the
next recording based on that input? How can I interact with the
callee?

Thanks in advance!

Rock on, PLA
