Automatically Logging Into and Out of Multiple Queues |
It is quite common for an agent to be a member of more than one queue. Rather than |
having a separate extension for logging into each queue (or demanding information |
from the agents about which queues they want to log into), this code uses the Asterisk |
database (astdb) to store queue membership information for each agent, and then |
loops through each queue the agents are a member of, logging them into each one in |
turn. |
In order for this code to work, an entry similar to the following will need to be added |
to the AstDB via the Asterisk CLI. For example, the following would store the mem‐ |
ber SOFTPHONE_A as being in both the support and sales queues:3 |
*CLI> database put queue_agent SOFTPHONE_A/available_queues support^sales |
You will need to do this once for each agent, regardless of how many queues they are |
members of. |
If you then query the Asterisk database, you should get a result similar to the |
following: |
pbx*CLI> database show queue_agent |
/queue_agent/SOFTPHONE_A/available_queues : support^sales |
The following dialplan code is an example of how to allow this queue member to be |
automatically added to both the support and sales queues. We’ve defined a |
3 We’re going to use the ^ character as a delimiter. You could probably use another character instead, just so |
long as it’s not one the Asterisk parser would see as a normal delimiter (and thus get confused by). So avoid |
commas, semicolons, and so forth. |

Chapter 12: Automatic Call Distribution Queues |
subroutine that is used to set up three channel variables (MemberChannel, MemberChan |
Type, AvailableQueues). These channel variables are then used by the login (*736), |
logout (*737), pause (*738), and unpause (*739) extensions. Each of the extensions |
uses the subSetupAvailableQueues subroutine to set these channel variables and to |
verify that the AstDB contains a list of one or more queues for the device the queue |
member is calling from. |
Near the end of your extensions.conf file, where you’ve put your subroutines, add the |
following: |
[subSetupAvailableQueues] |
; This subroutine is used by the various login/logout/pausing/unpausing routines |
; in our multiple queue login example. |
; |
exten => start,1,Verbose(2,Checking for available queues) |
; Get the current channel's peer name |
same => n,Set(MemberChannel=${CHANNEL(endpoint)}) |
; Get the current channel's technology type |
same => n,Set(MemberChanType=${CHANNEL(channeltype)}) |
; Get the list of queues available for this agent |
same => n,Set(AvailableQueues=${DB(queue_agent/${MemberChannel}/available_queues)}) |
; if there are no queues assigned to this agent we'll handle it in the |
; no_queues_available extension |
same => n,GotoIf($[${ISNULL(${AvailableQueues})}]?no_queues_available,1) |
same => n,Return() |
exten => no_queues_available,1,Verbose(2,No queues available for agent ${MemberChannel}) |
; playback a message stating the channel has not yet been assigned |
same => n,Playback(silence/1&channel¬-yet-assigned) |
same => n,Hangup() |
Next, in your [sets] context, add the following: |
; Logging into multiple queues via the AstDB system |
exten => *736,1,Verbose(2,Logging into multiple queues per the database values) |
; get the available queues for this channel |
same => n,GoSub(subSetupAvailableQueues,start,1()) |
same => n,Set(QueueCounter=1) ; setup a counter variable |
; using CUT(), get the first listed queue returned from the AstDB |
