Distinctive ring for ring group

[ZFD]

Hallo,
how can I set a distinctive ring (alert info) for a ring group? Cannot find it in the ring group settings.
Many thanks

Currently there’s no way to set that in the ring group itself. You can request this feature under #wish-list

With that being said, you can set the alert-info with a custom dialplan prior to going to the ring group

Maybe you could use a Queue instead of Ring Group? It’s possible there.

Thank you very much for your answers. I hope I got that correctly.
I created a new custom dialplan file extensions__70-custom.conf with the following content

[ext-ringgroups] (+)
same => 312,n,SIPAddHeader(“Alert-Info:my_custom_string_here”)

which should extend the context [ext-ringgroups] from extensions__50-1-dialplan.conf

Would it be better instead to have the whole 312 (hypothetic number) group in a custom conf file like extensions__70-custom.conf :

[ext-ringgroups] (+)
exten => 312,1,NoOp(Ring Group: Test)
same => 312,n,SIPAddHeader(“Alert-Info:my_custom_string_here”)
same => n,Set(_IGNORE_DIVERSIONS=yes)
same => n,Set(_SKIP_PLAYBACK=TRUE)
same => n,Set(__SKIP_AA=TRUE)
same => n,Set(__SRC_APP=RG905)
same => n,Gosub(sub-set-call-vars,app-incoming,1)
same => n,Answer()
same => n,NoCDR()
same => n,Dial(Local/551@ring-group-dial/n&Local/555@ring-group-dial/n&Local/559@$
same => n,ResetCDR(ve)

or use the custom context module, create e.g. [cos-alert-info-custom] in the custom conf file
and delete 312 from the ring groups, install the custom contexts module and use it as a destination?

Perhaps I went too much in detail, I would understand in case I had no answers

Many thanks in advance.
