IncomingPhoneNumber resource

An IncomingPhoneNumber instance resource represents a Twilio phone number provisioned from Twilio, ported or hosted to Twilio.

The IncomingPhoneNumbers list resource represents an account's Twilio phone numbers. You can POST to the list resource to provision a new Twilio number. To find a new number to provision use the subresources of the AvailablePhoneNumbers resource.

You can transfer phone numbers between two Twilio accounts if you're using subaccounts. For details, see Exchanging Numbers Between Subaccounts.

(information)

Info

Provisioning a phone number is a two-step process. First, you must find an available phone number to provision using the subresources of the AvailablePhoneNumbers resource. Second, you must POST to the IncomingPhoneNumbers list resource, documented below.

(warning)

Warning

NOTE: The order of the columns in the CSV is not defined and may change when new fields are added to the API response. Your application design should be resilient to changes in the order of the columns in the CSV response.

Delete an IncomingPhoneNumber resource

DELETE https://api.twilio.com/2010-04-01/Accounts/{AccountSid}/IncomingPhoneNumbers/{Sid}.json

Release this phone number from your account. Twilio will no longer answer calls to this number, and you will stop being billed the monthly phone number fee. The phone number will eventually be recycled and potentially given to another customer, so use with care. If you make a mistake, contact us. We may be able to give you the number back.
