How to retrieve and save Asterisk phonebook entries via ARI?

0

How can I retrieve/update/add Asterisk phonebook entries via ARI? I'm looking at ARI documentation https://wiki.asterisk.org/wiki/display/AST/Asterisk+13+ARI, but I don't find anything about the phonebook...

The phonebook I'm talking about is the one I find in FreePBX Administration > Admin > Asterisk Phonebook.

I also tried to look for the phonebook entries in the MySQL database, but don't see them there either...

Asterisk itself is PBX and not store nor manage phonebooks or phonebooks entries. It have no API for that.

If you have FreePBX framework(Elastic < 5.0, Trixbox), it store phonebook in astdb. So it is accessable via AMI by checking DB/DB_GET functions. ARI may have similar function, check ARI doc.

For any other framework you should refer to framework documentation.

Thanks for clarifying. We do use FreePBX (14.0.2.10). So the question is if ARI can access that astdb... – TheStoryCoder – 2018-05-09T12:01:06.033

Oh, is astdb just an SQLite database? The one located at /var/lib/asterisk/astdb.sqlite3? – TheStoryCoder – 2018-05-09T14:20:54.487

Depend of version AND compilation options. For 1.4 it is just text file. – arheops – 2018-05-10T06:49:40.790
