GEO routing

Last updated View as Markdown (opens in a new tab)

Route calls differently depending on where the caller is calling from.

GEO routing checks where a call comes from. Calls that match your filters take the Matches path, all others take Doesn’t match, and calls with a hidden number can take an Anonymous calls path.

For example, send calls from your local area code to the local office and all others to head office.

GEO routing settings

Settings

Section titled “Settings”
Setting What it does
Name Label on the canvas.
Prefix based routing Match calls whose number starts with a prefix. Use international format without the +: country code then area code. For example, 34932 is Barcelona, Spain (34 = Spain, 932 = area). Click Add prefix for each one.
Mobile origination location indicator based routing Match calls by where an Australian mobile caller is. Under Locations, tick a whole state or territory, or expand it to tick individual areas. This section appears only if it’s enabled for your account. If you don’t see it, contact support.

Irish prefixes start with 353. For example, 3531 matches Dublin (01) numbers and 35321 matches Cork (021) numbers. Use longer prefixes for finer routing.

Call paths

Section titled “Call paths”
Path When it’s used
Matches The caller matches one of your prefixes or locations.
Doesn’t match The caller doesn’t match.
Anonymous calls The caller’s number is hidden.

If a path isn’t connected, the call ends.
