Overview

This node interacts with the Asterisk PBX system via the Asterisk REST Interface (ARI) to manage call bridges. Specifically, the 'Delete' operation under the 'Bridges' resource allows users to delete a call bridge by specifying its unique Bridge ID. This is useful in telephony workflows where call bridges need to be programmatically removed, such as ending conference calls or cleaning up unused bridges.

Use Case Examples

1. Deleting a specific call bridge by its ID to free up system resources.
2. Automating the removal of call bridges after a call session ends.

Properties

Output

JSON

• bridgeId - The ID of the bridge that was deleted.
• status - The status or result of the delete operation.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for Asterisk ARI authentication.

Troubleshooting

• Ensure the Bridge ID provided is correct and exists; otherwise, the delete operation will fail.
• Check network connectivity to the Asterisk ARI endpoint configured in the node credentials.
• Verify that the API key or authentication token has sufficient permissions to delete bridges.
• Common error messages include 'Bridge not found' if the ID is invalid, and 'Unauthorized' if credentials are incorrect.
