Local RingPool API¶

Local RingPool Creation¶

The API provides the ability to create RingPools with additional information that specifies them as being ‘Local’ RingPools. These Local RingPools use local numbers that are determined by the parameters passed in by the user of the API. If a local phone number cannot be found the pool fills those slots (max_pool_size) with toll free numbers instead. When you POST with the correct parameters the Local RingPool is created and the allocation of local numbers happens later (approx. 10 minutes). This capability is JSON-only.

local_number_preferences	hash	All are optional “search_radius_miles”: An integer, greater than or equal to 0. Default is 240. Represents the number of miles from the location to search. “restrict_to_state”: A boolean. Default is true. Used to restrict search to be within state boundaries. “allocation_fallback_strategy”: “UseTollFree” or “Wait”. Default is “UseTollFree”.
