Changes what you have said about this number: the label you gave it, and what happens when a call arrives for it. Omit a field to leave it as it is.

The route replaces whatever was set before, because a number has exactly one answer at a time. A null route returns the number to your workspace's default inbound route, set with Update the voice settings. Type "reject" refuses calls whatever the default is. "trunk" needs a trunk_id: the trunk must be yours and must have inbound calling enabled. "forward" needs a forward_to, which has to be one of your verified caller IDs. That is checked when you set it, and again on every call it forwards, so a caller ID you later remove stops forwarding rather than carrying on.

Sequence management remains in the dashboard. A sequence route needs sequence_id and entry_node_id from an existing active publication in your workspace. Binding a sequence with recording commands or managed recording transfers requires organization preview access. Sequence management endpoints are not available through the public API; see the call sequences guide.

Only a number whose calls arrive here can carry a route. A number from another carrier is somewhere calls can be sent to, and that carrier routes the calls made to it, so inbound_configuration is refused on it. The label can be set on either.

Parâmetros

number_idstring

Corpo da requisição

name
nullable string

Your own label for this number. Send null to remove the one it has. Omit the field to leave it alone.

inbound_configuration
object

What should happen to calls arriving for this number. The route replaces whatever was set before, because a number has exactly one answer at a time. Type "reject" stops it answering, and a null route returns it to your workspace's default inbound route. Omit the field to leave the answer alone.

Only a number that can receive calls carries a route, so it is refused on one whose directions do not include inbound.

Payload de resposta

id
string
obrigatório

Identifier of this number, to pass to the operations that read and change it. A number you registered as a caller ID carries the same identifier there, with the caller-ID prefix.

phone_number
string
obrigatório

The phone number in E.164 format.

country_code
nullable string
obrigatório

Country the number belongs to. Null when the number is not geographic or its country cannot be determined.

name
nullable string
obrigatório

Your own label for this number, to tell several apart. Null when it has none. Only you see it, so it never affects what a caller sees.

provider
object
obrigatório

Where this number came from, and the facts that belong to that answer. The type selects the shape. allocation is a number we allocated to your workspace, and it carries that allocation's identifier. verified_number is a number from another carrier, and it carries how far proving control of it has got.

Mostrar atributos secundários
directions
object
obrigatório

Which directions this number can carry. Both follow from the number itself, so neither is yours to change. On a SIP trunk each direction is a setting you turn on; here it is a fact about the number.

Mostrar atributos secundários
directions.inbound
boolean
obrigatório

Whether calls to this number arrive here. False for a number from another carrier, whose calls that carrier routes, and for one allocated to you that cannot carry calls.

directions.outbound
boolean
obrigatório

Whether this number can be presented on a call you place. Buying a number does not grant this on its own: proving control of it does.

inbound_configuration
object
obrigatório

What happens to a call arriving for this number.

Mostrar atributos secundários
created_at
string
obrigatório

When this number became usable for voice: when it was allocated to you, or when you first registered it, whichever this number is.
