I understand your frustration with not being able to create a phone number using the suggested area codes 😕
Based on the documentation I found, while Vapi does offer US-based phone numbers (with area code 415 mentioned in examples), there might be limitations on specific area codes depending on availability within Vapi's system. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a comprehensive list of all currently available area codes.
Since you're experiencing this issue with multiple area codes, here are some alternatives:
1.
Import a phone number from another service like Twilio or Vonage if you already have one or can purchase one from there. This can be done through the "Import" button in the Phone Numbers section of the Vapi dashboard [source](
https://docs.vapi.ai/quickstart/phone/outbound).
2.
Check your current phone number count. Each Vapi wallet is limited to 10 free phone numbers [source](
https://docs.vapi.ai/free-telephony). If you've reached this limit, you won't be able to create additional numbers.
Have you tried importing a number from another provider as an alternative?
