Managing a UK Account's Dedicated Phone Numbers
Admins and Account Owners on UK accounts must create and manage dedicated phone numbers for their accounts on the Phone Numbers Page. Once an account has a dedicated phone number, it is used during campaign creation.
Creating a new dedicated number
The Phone Numbers page is located in the Account Tools drop-down.
At the top of the the phone number page is the "Create a dedicated phone number" section:
- Choose an area code: Select the mobile national destination code for their dedicated number using the drop-down menu.
- Name phone number (optional): If desired, admins can give the phone number a name. The phone number name is used internally only and is not shown to contacts. Phone number names can be used to differentiate one phone number from another. The names can represent the location where the number will be used (e.g., neighborhood, county, or facility), the intention (e.g., fundraising, ballot chase, or organizing), or the date the phone number was added to the account.
After selecting a national destination code and giving the phone number a name (if desired), admins click the "Add Number" button. If a phone number with that destination code is available, it will appear in the "Dedicated Phone Numbers" list below.
If there are no phone numbers with that national destination code, an error message will appear at the top of the screen. If an error occurs, the admin will need to select a different national destination number before clicking the "Add Number" button again.
NOTE - As of Sept 30th, 2024, a UK account cannot add additional numbers. Please reach out to [email protected] for questions.
Managing Dedicated Phone Numbers
At the bottom of the page is the list of dedicated phone numbers currently on the account. An account can have a maximum of five numbers.
NOTE - Phone number names can be edited after being added to the "Dedicated Phone Number" list by clicking the 'Pencil' icon.
