Thanks for the quick response. I mistakenly assumed the create bridge command took a list of types. After taking a look at the swagger UI I figured out it was merely a list of acceptable values. I had an issue with de-serializing the json response which confused the matter. I wrote a custom deserializer and it works fine now.
Thanks for the example from your python code. I followed that example and it worked fine. Considering a bridge needs to be created for a simple dial application - do you see any pitfalls of creating a pool of bridges for the application to share - assuming I take care of the bridge-state internally?
Also... with ARI, I see no hooks into provisioning devices, I assume I need to use AMI updateconfig? Thanks!!!

What do you mean by type 'list'? What ARI operation are you using to get
details for the bridge?

This sounds about right. After the first channel enters your application,
you need to originate a call to the second channel and then put them both
in the bridge. Once that is done, getting the details of that bridge will
show both channels under the channels property, which will be an array of
channel ids. Please see
https://github.com/asterisk/ari-py/blob/master/examples/originate_example.pyfor
an example of how to do this using ari-py. The same functionality
could
be accomplished by making direct calls to ARI of course.
