exten => 0424449631,n,NoOp(${CUT(CALLERID(name),\(,2):0:-1})
-- Executing [[email protected]:4] NoOp("OOH323/Avaya2-8", "Martela (fax)") in new stack -- Executing [[email protected]:5] NoOp("OOH323/Avaya2-8", "fax)") in new stack

Hi!

I try to get rid of some part of CALLERID(name) but I cant realy figure
out a way to do it. For example: CALLERID(name) = "Martela (fax)" I am
just looking for the part before “ (“ in my case “Martela”. I can’t
serch for “ “, could be many “ “, but only one “ (“, thought i could do
something like:

exten => 0424449631,n,NoOp(${CUT(CALLERID(name),\(,1):0:-1})

But that gave me “Martela “ so my way of doing it is wrong.
Any that can tell me what I am doing wrong or have any better suggestion
howto do it?

You're almost there.  The issue is that CUT uses 1-based offsets, not
0-based offsets, so:
exten => 0424449631,n,NoOp(${CUT(CALLERID(name),\(,2):0:-1})
