3CX API and MakeCall

[dcw-jubilee]

Hi All

I have a .NET application running on the same machine as the 3CX PBX, which is controlling a door entry system.

I need for my application to control calls on the 3CX PBX. Using the Call Control API, I have successfully connected to the server and performed actions; such as dropping calls, getting extension info etc.

What I seem unable to do is place a call between two extensions, which is crucial to what I am trying to achieve.

Using MakeCall() I can call to the first extension, but the call to the second extension never goes through ("Unable to connect" spoken message).

Can anyone tell me if what I am trying to do is possible, and if so what I may be doing wrong.

David

Hello DCW,
Just to be clear, is the call failing when you are transferring the call to the second extension or is it failing when initiating the call from one extension to the other.
If the latter, then what are you passing as the source of the call arg1? Does the source extension exist?
By the way, is this David Ward by any chance?

You have probably gone through these already but here is the link to API documentation which includes excellent sample files
