In Asterisk 10 or before try the ReadFile application. Otherwise in 11 or beyond I believe you want the FILE function. https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+Application_ReadFile https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+Function_FILE You could also use the SHELL function to execute a command on the system and capture output https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+Function_SHELL Then you might also look into Asterisk Gateway Interface for more complex tasks and control. https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+11+Application_AGI http://asteriskdocs.org/en/3rd_Edition/asterisk-book-html-chunk/AGI.html If you are learning Asterisk; the book I linked above contains some great information on AGI and is written by some of our notable community members.
