NOTE

Check our Managing Your DIDs section pages for details on how you can configure and use your DID numbers.

🚧

Order Creation Troubleshooting

  • If the Place Order button stays disabled, check your cart - it must have at least one DID that requires an identity that hasn't been assigned. Pick an identity in each row marked with the ⚙️ icon, or use Apply for all to set one for the whole order.
  • If you do not have any verified identities you can select, you must create or verify one in Identities & Verification before returning to the order.
  • DIDs with the ⚙️ Documentation Required attribute go through manual verification before they're activated, so your new DIDs can be missing under the DID Managementpage. You'll receive an email when provisioning finishes and the numbers will be added to the page.
