To intercept a call ringing somewhere, simply dial *8 from your extension.

To intercept a specific extension, dial **105 from your extension where 105 is the extension that is ringing.

All these features can be found under Dialplan -> Dialplan Manager from FusionPBX GUI.

I tried this. It does not work.

It should work. Are you being asked for a PIN when attempting to intercept a call by dialing *8+EXT?

By default there is a PIN number associated with the *8[ext] feature code in the Dialplan Manager. You can remove this if you want, which is what I've done.

I just found what the problem is. It does not work with the Number Alias created in the extension. If you create an Extension ie..abc101 with an Alias of 101 and try picking up 101 it fails.
