Explanation
A transform in Expressway is a pre-processing rule that rewrites or manipulates a dial string (alias or URI) before the search rules evaluate it for routing. When an alias matches a defined pattern (using regex), the transform replaces it with a new alias according to a replacement string. For example, a transform can rewrite '[email protected]' into '[email protected]' before routing logic runs. Transforms do not establish connections (that is a zone's role), do not change audio codecs (that is a transcoder's role), and are not routing decisions themselves-they simply mutate the alias so that a subsequent search rule can correctly route the rewritten alias.
