You can use the CallerID parameter of the Originate command to override the default caller id.
It's listed on the wiki with examples: http://www.voip-info.org/wiki/view/Asterisk+Manager+API+Action+Originate Cheers On 11/27/06, Eric Bishop <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
We have calls that originate click-to-dial apps that use the manager interface. As most of you know these apps first ring your handset so that you pickup the handset and then place the outbound call once you have picked up. When they first ring my handset (before me picking up the handset) the call shows as being "from asterisk". Is there any way to change this "from" name to something the average joe understands such as "PBX"? _______________________________________________ --Bandwidth and Colocation provided by Easynews.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
