How to do virtual atendent with caller identification?
Hi guys,
I would like to do something like when you call a Mobile Carrier for example,
The caller will walk throught a menu, like:
"Dial 1, if you cant make a call, dial 2 if you cant recive a call, dial 3 for billing information"
For instance: 1
"Please dial your phone number"
For instance: 555-1234
"Please hold while we transfer your call"
Then the softphone rings with the caller NAME and the respective problem chosen from the list.
How do integrate my clients Data Base to the Asterisk and how do I make it ask for the client NUMBER or Cliente ID, and show the client NAME on the incomming call on X-lite?
Thanks.
You write a custom AGI script to do this. A good starting place would be to look at the callerd id name lookup module in FreePBX. You can also download the book Asterisk: The Future of Telephony (http://www.asteriskdocs.com) for AGI examples.
Hi there,
Thanks for the HINT...
I actually thought I could do that by copying my database to one of the FreePBX modules, like phonebook or CustumerDB...
Reading the book you suggested, I realized that by AGI I could achieve my objective... But its rather too customizable for my simple needs...
If I could do what I need by using one of the included Scripts/Modules, that would be awsome!
Any ideas??
