Step 4: Create SIP Trunks

SIP trunks are essential for connecting your existing infrastructure to the Vobiz platform. Here’s how to set up both outbound and inbound trunks:

Outbound Trunks

First, create an outbound trunk. This will allow you to make calls from your Vobiz account.

Step 5: Create an XML Application

In the "Voice" section, you can create an XML application to control your call flow. You can configure various URLs to handle different call events.

Tip: Customizing your call flow requires Voice XML. Use our interactive XML Builder to quickly generate the webhook code you need!

Setup URLs for Application

After you've configured your application, you can assign your purchased phone number to it. This will link your number to the application's logic, enabling inbound calls.
