Phonebook lookup

  1. 7 years ago

    Hi,

    is it possible to have a name from a ldap source or phonebook instead of a phone number when a user is in conversation ?

    So I can see with who he is speaking instead of a number I don't know.

    Thank you

    That should be done on Asterisk, you can use the callerid superfecta freepbx module or any other way you like to do lookups on number to set the callerid name. If that is set in Asterisk, then FOP2 will show correctly.

  3. Thank you, it works for incoming calls.

    How can I make it working for outgoing calls ? Is there a way ? I don't see any option for CID lookup source in outbound routes...

    I do not know if you can manipulate that kind of information as callerid is usually inbound, not outbound. Setting a callerid in asterisk affects your own (dialing) channel to be presented on the other side, or sets the callerid for inbound channels, but it wont' operate on 'dialed' numbers.
