6.1.2.79. SendURL (dialplan application)

1. SendURL - this application allows you to send a hyperlink to a PBX user

NOTE: This application is valid for Asterisk version 1.0.9 and above.

 


Syntax:

SendURL(URL[|option]) ; write as argument the URL you want to send


The result will be returned in the SENDURLSTATUS channel variable. There are four possible values:

SUCCESS - URL successfully sent to client
FAILURE - Failed to send URL
NOLOAD - Clien failed to load URL (wait enabled)
UNSUPPORTED - Channel does not support URL transport

 


List of the possible options

wait - if this option is set the execution will continue only after a confirmation that the URL has been loaded

 


Purpose and usage

The purpose of this application is to send an URL address to the caller. So it could be used for an advertising. The caller dials the number of your company and he/she receives the URL of one of your departements or for example of one of your partners.

Below, we will give you an example.

 


Prerequisites

To use this application you need a working Asterisk PBX with registered users in iax.conf, sip.conf or mgcp.conf(It depends on which protocol you would like to use) and made extensions.

To see how the application works we recommend you to use our IAX softphone Idefisk. You can download it from here. Please also read our tutorial to learn how to configure it to work with Asterisk PBX.

 


Asterisk PBX configurations

NOTE: This is only an example of what for you can use this application. Of course you can use it and for other things.


iax.conf Configurations

We need one registered user in the iax.conf file. This is because we are going to use the IAX2 protocol. If you want to use other protocol such as SIP or MGCP, you have to do the configurations below respectively in sip.conf or mgcp.conf.

So, we have registered the user user1.

Type=friend means that this user can make and receive calls. Host=dynamic means that the IP is not static but dynamic through a DHCP server. Allow=all means that the line which this user will use, could support all audio codecs. Context=test - this shows that this user is working with the extensions in this context of the configuration file extensions.conf.


extensions.conf Configurations

Now lets take a look at the extensions.conf file.

On the picture above you can see our extensions.conf file.

When somebody dials the number 100, the call will be answered by the Answer application.

The next executed extension will be the one with the SendURL application. In our case we have set in the brackets the web address of our web site - www.asteriskguru.com. It will be send to the caller.

Now, here we have an interesting moment. The usage of Idefisk gives you the possibility to choose, whether do you want the web address to be opened into your web browser automatically or you prefer a new window with the link to the web address to appear on the screen.

This option could be selected by pressing right button on the icon of the Idefisk in the task bar and then select General Options. The option is Automatically open URLs

The next extension will be executed immediately. In our case this is the one with the Dial applications. Thanks to it the call will be connected to the user user1.

However if you set the wait option in the SendURL application, the next extension will be executed only, when the the URL is opened in your browser.

In order to be sure that the Asterisk PBX will hang up the line after the conversation is over, it is a good idea to make an extension for hanging up the line.
