Phone Numbers

Phone numbers rentable through the CarrierX API are called Direct Inward Dialing numbers (DIDs). DIDs can be organized into DID groups.

Refer to the Browse Available DIDs section to query the phone number inventory for available phone numbers, their supported and active capabilities.

Prefixes allow you to route outbound calls based on the starting segment of the dialed phone number. Prefixes are sequences of digits you can set up to route your outbound calls to a desired trunk group on your partner.

Short codes are short phone numbers used for SMS communications.
