Queue Log Function

QueueLog(queuename,uniqueid,agent,event,params):

Allows you to write your own events into the queue log:

QueueLog(101,${UNIQUEID},${AGENT},WENTONBREAK,600)

Dynamic Members Extension

Add the following line to enable the agent-manage macro for a queue into your extensions configuration file.

exten => 1234*,1,Macro(agent-manage,1234,)

Dynamic Members Macros

Add the appropriate macro for your needs and version of asterisk into your macros configuration file.

• Important: Ensure that your context for internal calls is the same as from-internal if not you will have to change this.

Dynamically Manage Agents/Members and log Time-In-Queue (Asterisk 1.4)

Adds or removes a dynamic member to the queue based on called ID information and logs the time in queue in seconds to /var/log/asterisk/queue_log.

FreePBX

The above macros are based on macros from the FreePBX front-end to Asterisk. If you choose to implement any of the above macros and are using FreePBX I recommend doing some additional cleanup.

• Remove all references to agent-add and agent-del in extensions_additional.conf as agent-manage will now facilitate this.

exten => 1234*,1,Macro(agent-add,1234,)
exten => 1234**,1,Macro(agent-del,1234,1234)

• Remove agent-add and agent-del from extension.conf as agent-manage will now facilitate this.
