Speed dial to post to url. Part of my Google voice 2014 workaround.
giqcass:
I'm working on the callback script based on work found here. It's a better solution then the one above. If I can get Obi to give us the ability to post a url Based on a speed dial then it should work as follows.
1) Dial the speed dial.
2) Hang up.
3) You immediately receive an incoming call.
4) Pick up the phone and the call will ring the number defined in the speed dial.
Not as seamless as the current system but it's free and it will work after the 2014 cutoff date.

I was testing this script with Tropo. I deleted my last post because Tropo doesn't support cookies and the script will not work. Since then I tried running the script without cookies. I actually got it to log into GV successfully, but instead of returning a key Google sent a message stating cookies must be enabled.
Are you testing this script? Are you having better results than me?
Can you recommend any free service that can host this script?
Thanks

I'm having issues with it as well. I always end up with errors. It needs a rewrite to work with the free hosts. I haven't dug in to it enough yet.

I will have to figure out the code but I believe I have finally figured out a system to initiate a free outbound call. It's a callback solution. Dial in to a sip number. Leave a voicemail. The voicemail is forwarded to a cloud service that initiates the GV callback or any number of other tasks. This would of course be much simpler if obi would implement a way to send a url call with variable. I will try to get some simple tasks going over the next week. I see no reason why we couldn't dictate a text message using this system.

I haven't posted any update to this thread in a while but I have finally worked out a method to pass a variable to a url. It is described in the Obi provisioning documentation but until recently I wasn't able to put the pieces together.
Currently I am refining the process.
