Abstract
A method and apparatus for enabling a calling party and a called party to exchange useful information with each other during a call setup process are disclosed. For example, the method receives user metadata from an originating party, and sends the user metadata provided by the originating party by embedding the user metadata in a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) signaling message during a call setup.
