Yup, it was added in Asterisk 12.2:

I think you're confusing the subscription model of channels in ARI
with what happens when you perform an Origination.

You can Originate a channel anywhere using ARI. That does not mean,
however, that you get events about that channel. You only get events
about channels if you have subscribed to the channel. You get an
implicit subscription to a channel when it enters into a Stasis
application.

If you specify an 'app', and that application is Stasis, then yes,
you'll get a subscription created for you, you will get a StasisStart
event, and you'll get events about the channel. You can, however,
Originate channels outside of your Stasis application - either to the
dialplan or to some other application.

In those cases, you can create an explicit subscription using the
/applications resource.

Again, I think you're confusing Origination and the subscription event
model for an application in Stasis.

Just because you modify something through ARI does not mean you get
events about that thing. ARI != AMI. It is not an open pipeline of
everything that occurs in the system.

There are two ways to get events:
(1) Create a subscription to the thing that you want via the
applications resource
(2) Get an implicit subscription to a channel (and only a channel)
when it enters into the Stasis dialplan application

Unless you do one of those two things, you don't get events back about it.
