## Notes

* Setting `direction: "inbound"` configures the agent to receive calls on the assigned numbers.
* Setting `direction: "outbound"` configures the agent to place calls from the assigned numbers.
* Phone numbers must already exist in your environment. Use the [List Phone Numbers](/api-reference/endpoints/list-phone-numbers) endpoint to retrieve available IDs.
