The create new extension Emailing, should have an admin configurable en/dis-able option to include SIP details, perhaps it could be determined by editing the Email by admins adding in their servers details and macros that include the ext number, and sip password.
Why would you want this? Commercial modules might be suited to configuring some - but not all, hardware phone, but they are not able to configure softphones, like microsip and zoiper and others, in the age of COVID-19 work from homes I've seen a huge uptake in softphones so folks can work from home, it's annoying having to spend hours on the phone giving out sip login details, this could be fixed by allowing the information to be included when adding new ext. Even today I had to do a bunch more. They should also have access to this in UCP (but i'll open a second request for that)
Not all installations of FreePBX are suited to auto configuring, especially those over the public internet.
