Abstract

Embodiments of the present invention are directed to a method and system for identifying a first dialog between an element and a server and a second dialog between the server and a first device, wherein the first dialog and second dialog are connected to form an active call, identifying a call park request code from the first device through a third dialog between the first device and the server, creating a fourth dialog between the server and a parking address based on the call park request code, disconnecting the first dialog and second dialog, connecting the first dialog with the fourth dialog to park the active call, identifying a call pickup request code from a second device through a fifth dialog between the second device and the server, disconnecting the first dialog and the fourth dialog, and connecting the first dialog with the fifth dialog to resume the active call.
