To import an international phone number (such as from Uzbekistan) into Vapi, first purchase the number from Twilio (if available), then use the Vapi dashboard's "Import" feature. Here’s a quick example using the API:
Copy code
bash
curl -X POST https://api.vapi.ai/phone-numbers/import \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_VAPI_API_KEY" \
  -d '{"provider":"twilio","number":"+998XXXXXXXXX","twilioAccountSid":"YOUR_SID","twilioAuthToken":"YOUR_TOKEN"}'
Check Twilio for Uzbek number availability first. If Twilio does not offer Uzbek numbers, Vapi cannot import them directly. Sources: - [Import number from Twilio](https://docs.vapi.ai/phone-numbers/import-twilio) - [Phone Calling](https://docs.vapi.ai/phone-calling)
