The Inbound Calls page is where you connect the phone numbers you own to the AI agents you have built. By creating Dispatch Rules, you dictate exactly which agent answers the phone when a customer dials a specific number.Documentation Index

Prerequisites
Before creating dispatch rules, make sure you have:At least one agent
You need an active, configured agent to answer the phone.
At least one phone number
You must have a purchased or imported phone number available in your workspace.
Create an Inbound Route
Setting up a new dispatch rule takes only a few clicks. Once configured, inbound calls are routed immediately with zero delay.Assign to AI Agent
Click the ASSIGN TO AI AGENT dropdown to choose the specific AI assistant you want to handle the incoming calls.
Inbound Route Detail View
Once a dispatch rule is created, it will appear in your Inbound Call Rules list. Clicking on a specific active rule opens the detailed Route Dashboard. This gives you a comprehensive overview of how that specific number is performing.
- Identity & Routing: Quickly verify the Assigned Agent, the specific Agent ID, and the designated Phone Number.
- Performance Metrics: Monitor volume at a glance with counters for Total Completed calls, calls currently Live In Progress, and the total number of Recent Calls.
- Schedule & Status: The Schedule block confirms when the route was Created, when it ended (or if it is Still active), and provides the unique Dispatch Rule ID.
- Recent Calls Log: A dedicated table at the bottom of the page displays a live feed of all the calls that have recently come through this specific inbound route.
Common Routing Patterns
One agent, one number
One agent, one number
The simplest setup. Buy a number, assign it to an agent, and you’re live. Ideal for a single product line or department.
Multiple numbers, different agents
Multiple numbers, different agents
Buy separate numbers for sales, support, and billing. Create a dispatch rule for each, routing to specialized agents with different prompts and tools.
Campaign-specific numbers
Campaign-specific numbers
Use unique phone numbers for different marketing campaigns or ad channels. Route each to the same agent but use dynamic variables to track which campaign the caller came from.
