Overview

This node interacts with the Asterisk PBX system via the Asterisk REST Interface (ARI) to manage telephony channels. Specifically, the 'Stop Ring' operation stops the ringing state of a specified channel. This is useful in call management scenarios where an incoming call's ringing needs to be halted programmatically, such as in automated call handling or call center workflows.

Use Case Examples

1. Stopping the ringing of a channel when a call is answered elsewhere.
2. Halting the ring on a channel after a timeout or user action.
