I created a tool and linked it up to an assistant. But when I check the VAPI dashboard UI the forwarding phone number in the function section is empty meaning its not updating https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1340371137338806354/1340371138055901324/SCR-20250215-pyfd.png?ex=67b21d66&is=67b0cbe6&hm=6a0c2690d72bf9d920fb351e56fd3eee91d775220f20d61f5613f4e84a820ff8& https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1340371137338806354/1340371138601025628/SCR-20250215-pylk.png?ex=67b21d66&is=67b0cbe6&hm=e0c765fd6447a03ce5f69fe23232c2196668439d2ff8716d1cf4cda9d8b30140&

Hey sambalicious0123, tool creating has no relation to the forwardingPhoneNumber field. The forwarding phone number is a separate field which you can use it for your forwarding phone number and tool call for this will be handled by Vapi. Whereas when you explicitly create tools, you have to associate them with your assistant and then trigger it from your prompt. Let me know what's confusing you!!

how can I add a forwarding phone number via the api ?

Hey the forwarding phone number field is deprecated so checkout this doc on call forwarding and let me know if you require further help.
