Destinations - I am confused

[ropeguru]

So I have a new install of version 4.4.4 installed and am confused a bit about why destinations, in the case hold_music, are not showing up as an action when I create an inbound destination..

According to the documentation here, https://docs.fusionpbx.com/en/latest/dialplan/advanced_dialplans.html#enable-a-dialplan-destination , as long as there is a number populated in the "Number" field, I should be able to use the "Destination" and set it to "True" so it will show up as an action. However, the hold_music does not have the "Destination" field showing for me to set to "True".

See screen shot.

If I had to hazard a guess, I would say that feature is on master and not on stable.
Which are you on?

Edit: can see that it's on master but not stable:

James’ answer is correct. There are many features in docs.fusionpbx.com that are only available in master branch. Primarily because new features are in master first and are documented when built (or soon after). Also we should see a version update soon where master will become the new stable version.

Now to solve your problem while still on 4.4, you can type in the destination you want and/or edit the generated inbound route dial plan.

So under Dialplan Menu I am using the Destinations option to configure an Inbound Route. Using this feature, the option for actions is a drop down and does not allow for typing in an action and the actions are very limited. See attachment.

So in this case do I have to either a) create under the Destinations with no action, save, then use the Inbound Route for adding an action to get what I want or b) forget using the Destinations option and just create my Inbound Route using the Inbound Route option from the Dialplan menu.

You can edit the box where there are drop downs. Select some random option then click on the black icon next to the box “<I” and the box can be changed
