List available phone numbers

GET
/v1/numbers/available
// The search is always country-scoped, so country_code is required.
const page = await bird.numbers.available.list({
  country_code: "GB",
  capabilities: ["sms", "voice"],
});
for (const candidate of page.data) {
  console.log(candidate.number, candidate.number_type);
}
Returns phone numbers available for purchase in a country, newest first. Narrow the search with number_type, capabilities, and prefix. Inventory numbers are returned first and support pagination. The final page can include a live snapshot of numbers available from suppliers.
Abfrageparameter
country_code
string
ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code to search in.
number_type
string
Return only numbers of this physical type after applying the country and prefix filters.
Possible values (may grow over time): mobile, local, national, short_code, short_code_fteu, toll_free
prefix
string
Return only numbers that start with these digits, matched right after the country dial code: with country_code=US, prefix=212 matches +1 212 area-code numbers and prefix=833 matches 833 toll-free numbers. Digits only. Leave out the country dial code and any national dialing prefix such as a leading 0. Short codes never match a prefix search.
capabilities

Filter by channel capability. Repeat the parameter to require several at once: capabilities=sms&capabilities=voice returns only numbers that support both.
limit

Maximum number of items to return per page.
starting_after
string
Cursor from the next_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately after the cursor position in the current sort order.
