Returns phone numbers available for purchase in a country. Narrow the search with number_type, capabilities, and prefix. Inventory numbers come first and support pagination. The final page can include a live snapshot of numbers available from suppliers.

Inventory results are newest first by default. When you specify number_type and the suppliers on sale in the market are ranked into multiple priority tiers, results follow supplier priority, newest first within each tier. These searches reject ending_before and return neither prev_cursor nor refresh_cursor, so backward and refresh paging are unavailable. Country-only searches and markets with a single tier keep newest-first inventory ordering and support backward and refresh paging.

Queryparameters

country_codestring

ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 country code to search in.

number_typestring

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

prefixstring

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.

capabilitiesarray

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

limitinteger

Maximum number of items to return per page.

starting_afterstring

Cursor from the next_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately after the cursor position in the current sort order.

ending_beforestring

Cursor from the prev_cursor or refresh_cursor field of a previous list response. Returns items immediately before the cursor position in the current sort order. prev_cursor returns the preceding page. refresh_cursor anchors at the first row of that response, which on a newest-first sort is how to fetch the items that have appeared since.

Response Payload

next_cursor
nullable string
verplicht

Cursor for the next page. Pass back as starting_after to advance forward. null when no next page exists.

prev_cursor
nullable string
verplicht

Cursor for the previous page. Pass back as ending_before to step backward. null when no previous page exists.

refresh_cursor
nullable string
verplicht

Refresh anchor, the first row of this response. Pass back as ending_before to fetch what precedes it in the current sort order. On a newest-first sort those are the items that have appeared since; on any other sort they are the items that sort earlier, so refreshing such a list means re-fetching it instead. Non-null whenever data is non-empty; null only on an empty page. Distinct from prev_cursor.
