Why import your own Twilio phone number?
4 reasons why:
When you already have your own phone numbers in twilio
When you need another phone number than available through Ringly.io
When you're making a ton of calls
When you want to verify your phone number
6 steps to import your phone number
Everyone can follow these steps – no code or technical knowledge needed.
Step 1: Create a 'trunk'
Go to Twilio (click here for the right page):
Create a new trunk, give it a name (any name you want), and enable 'Call Transfer' and 'PSTN Transfer':
Step 2: Give the 'termination URL' a name
In the left menu click on 'Termination'. Fill in a name in the input (any name you want). You'll use this 'termination SIP URI' in later steps.
Step 3: Add some IP addresses
Click on + here:
Add this info and hit save: default ACL 1 and 0.0.0.0
Create another one with this info: default ACL 2 and 128.0.0.0
Don't forget to save!
Step 4: Paste our 'origination URL'
In the left menu, click on Origination. Hit the + and paste this url sip:5t4n6j0wnrl.sip.livekit.cloud;transport=tcp
Step 5: Add phone numbers to your trunk
You’ve created your trunk! Now add a phone number to it:
Step 6: Import to Ringly.io
In Ringly.io go to the integrations and open Twilio for calls. Create a new trunk. Add a phone number that you also added to the trunk in Twilio. Choose agents or do that later. And then add the Termination URI you created in step 2.
Now the number is imported, you can make and receive calls with this number just like a number you purchased from Ringly.io — it will show up in your dashboard, and you can make phone calls from dashboard directly.
