What Happens Behind the Scenes

When you link an assistant to a phone number:
1

Endpoint created

A routing endpoint is created on KrosAI that points to your assistant.
2

Phone number updated

The phone number is configured to route calls through the new endpoint.
3

Number marked as assigned

The phone number shows the linked assistant in the dashboard.
4

Calls start flowing

Any incoming call to that number is now handled by your assistant.

Constraints

  • A phone number can only be linked to one assistant at a time
  • The assistant must be published

Viewing Linked Numbers

On the Phone Numbers page, linked numbers show the assigned assistant:
To switch to a different assistant:
  1. Unlink the current assistant
  2. Link the new assistant
There’s a brief moment between unlinking and relinking where calls won’t be handled. Do this during low-traffic periods.
