Name

SIPAddHeader() — Adds a SIP header to the outbound call

Synopsis

SIPAddHeader(Header: Content)

Adds a header to a SIP call placed with the Dial() application. A nonstandard SIP header should begin with X-, such as X-Asterisk-Accountcode:. Use this application with care—adding the wrong headers may cause any number of problems.

For more flexibility, see the SIP_HEADER() dialplan function.
