I was interested in implementing something similar for a web directory that would enable tracking offline phone conversions via Twilio. I was going to use click-to-call, however, click-to-call requires paying for both the inbound and outbound portion of the call. Is there a way to have one inbound number forward to a different number dynamically (depending on a phone number variable)?
- johns 16y agoYes. Every request we make to you includes the 'From' number, which you can check for in your code, and return a <Dial> with the number you want to forward them to specified. http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/2010-04-01/twiml/dial http://www.twilio.com/docs/api/2010-04-01/twiml/dial
- neovive 16y agoSounds interesting. Are any outbound minutes used after the call is forwarded? I am willing to budget for the inbound connection and tracking, but paying for the entire outbound conversation would be a bit too variable.
- dmor 16y agoTwilio is not currently able to hand off a call to another carrier, so you have to pay for the outbound minutes when you call out with <Dial> or the REST API to connect another party
