I can't seem to generate a phone number within the Vapi dashboard. I've tried various browsers and tried last night as well as this morning. Any suggestions? It shows the create button spinning for a second and then nothing.

I see you're having trouble creating a phone number in the Vapi dashboard. There are several possible causes for this issue, including reaching the maximum number of free phone numbers (limit of 10), a shortage of available Vapi free numbers, or configuration problems.
Have you received any error messages when attempting to create the phone number, or can you check if you've already reached the maximum limit of free phone numbers in your account?

What kind of phone number are you trying to create? If it is a VAPI free number, try using one of these area codes (830, 719, 417). If you are still having problems creating one, let us know

417 area code did it. I was trying to use a local one. Thanks for the tip!
