OK, now we’re going to open yet another shell session3 so we can interact with this
connection we’ve created. From this new shell, issue the following command:
$ curl -v -u asterisk:whateveryoudodontusethispassword -X POST \
"http://localhost:8088/ari/channels/1548643423.2/play?media=sound:believe-its-free" sd
Note the "id" from the JSON returned on the wscat session must be used following
the 'channels/' portion of the curl command. In other words, you must match the
channel identifier in your command to the channel identifier associated with your
call. In this manner, you can of course wrangle many calls simultaneously.
Working with Your ARI Environment Using Swagger
Asterisk’s ARI has been developed to be compatible with the OpenAPI Specification
(aka Swagger), which means that many tools compatible with this spec will work with
ARI. As an example, you can interact with your ARI installation using Swagger-UI,
which will be useful both for debugging and as a documentation source.
3 If your computer has only one screen, now is probably the point where you’re thinking what a good idea it
would be to have more of them.

Chapter 19: Asterisk REST Interface
First up, we’ll need to expose our Asterisk HTTP server to the local network (cur‐
rently it’s only allowing connections from 127.0.0.1). In your /etc/asterisk/http.conf file
you’ll bind the HTTP server to the local IP address of your Asterisk machine:
$ sudo vim /etc/asterisk/http.conf
; Enable the built-in HTTP server, and only listen for connections on localhost.
[general]
enabled = yes
;bindaddr = 127.0.0.1 ; comment this out
bindaddr = 172.29.1.57 ; LAN IP OF YOUR ASTERISK SERVER
Next, we’ll need to add a line to your /etc/asterisk/ari.conf file:
$ sudo vim /etc/asterisk/ari.conf
[general]
enabled = yes
pretty = yes
allowed_origins=http://ari.asterisk.org
...
Save and reload the http and ari modules in Asterisk:
$ sudo asterisk -rx 'module reload http' ; sudo asterisk -rx 'module reload ari'
Now, from your development desktop, open up your browser and navigate to http://
ari.asterisk.org.
You’ll see a web page similar to Figure 19-1.
Figure 19-1. Swagger UI for ARI
Replace localhost with the LAN IP address of your Asterisk server, and in the
api_key field, put your ARI user:password from /etc/asterisk/ari.conf (for example,
asterisk:whateveryoudodontusethispassword). If you’ve got all the configuration
correct, you will be rewarded with the results in Figure 19-2.

Figure 19-2. ARI Swagger
You are looking at comprehensive documentation for your ARI module, and you can
actually pass queries to it as well. This is a massively useful debugging aid, and kudos
