outbound_caller_id_number is +EXT and not default set

[SoWhy]

Hi all,

I have set outbound_caller_id_number in Default settings to be +49123456789 as variable text and enabled that setting (both for the domain in question and all domains). However, if I don't set an outbound_caller_id_number in the Extension, my dialplan will fall back to +EXT as the caller ID and not use the default set.

Outgoing dialplan has action set effective_caller_id_number=${outbound_caller_id_number} which is the default. How do I get it to respect the default setting if the extension has no setting?

TIA

I've mitigated it for now by using a condition that checks whether the outbound_caller_id_number is empty and replacing it with the default number hardcoded in the dialplan but I still would like it to actually use the default settings variable whenever instead.

you would need to do something like this on domain level
