set <channel_variable>=<value>

This application may be run inline from the XML dialplan to evaluate the result for immediate processing.

Examples

<action application="set" data="effective_caller_id_name=FreeSwitch"/>
<action application="set" data="effective_caller_id_number=12345678"/>
<action application="set" data="sip_uri_to_dial=${sip_to_user}@${sip_to_host}"/>
<action application="log" data="DIALING Extension DialURI [${sip_uri_to_dial}]\n"/>

Warning

The variables will not be set until execution. If you need the value immediately in a condition, run it inline.

Alternatively, the variable will be available after a transfer or execute_extension.

Setting multiple variables

To set multiple variables you can either call the set application multiple times or you can use the multiset application to set them all from a single line.
