“FreePBX will query a web service for caller ID name information
using the HTTP protocol. A lookup source that uses HTTP to query
for information can use services such as Google Phonebook or online
versions of the white/yellow pages to return caller ID names. When
HTTP is selected as the source type, six additional options will
appear for configuration.”
