Phone number "not found"
# support
s
hi there, I've added a sip trunk , and a phone number. Outbound calls work perfect, but inbound calls , a bot responds that Phone number "locked out" and hangs up. Can't see any call logs on vapi , the sip provider says it's a bot that responds from VAPI's end.... Can you please help out understanding what's going on ?

It looks like inbound calls to your SIP trunk are being blocked with a "locked out" message, and there are no call logs on Vapi. Since the found information does not provide a direct solution, I recommend double-checking your phone number and SIP trunk configuration in Vapi, ensuring the number is active and properly linked. If the issue persists, please provide more details about your Vapi setup or any recent changes, so I can assist you further.
Suggestion: Double-check that your inbound SIP routing is configured correctly—specifically, ensure your SIP provider is forwarding calls to the correct SIP URI (e.g.,
{yourNumber}@<credential_id>.sip.vapi.ai
) and that your phone number is properly associated with the SIP trunk credential in Vapi. Example check:
Copy code
json
{
  "provider": "byo-phone-number",
  "number": "YOUR_NUMBER",
  "credentialId": "YOUR_CREDENTIAL_ID"
}
If the configuration is correct and the issue persists, try re-saving the phone number in Vapi or contact Vapi support for further assistance. [See SIP trunk setup guide](https://docs.vapi.ai/advanced/sip/sip-trunk) Source: - [SIP trunking documentation](https://docs.vapi.ai/advanced/sip/sip-trunk)

Hey! To help track down this issue, could you share: \- The call ID \- When exactly this happened (the timestamp) \- What response you expected to get \- What response you actually got instead This would really help us figure out what went wrong!

Hey, can you send a screen recording of the issue? It would help me understand better. Also, could you share your org_id? You can find it [here](https://dashboard.vapi.ai/org/settings). This will give me more info to assist you.
