Assign a number to your SIP trunk with Node.js

You can manage your Elastic SIP trunks with the API and assign a phone number to your SIP trunk.

What you need to know before you start

Before you can get started, you need the following already set up:

• Set all Elastic SIP Trunking API configuration settings.
• NPM and a familiarity with how to install packages.
• Node.js and a familiarity with how to create a new app.
• A created SIP trunk.

Set up your Node.js application

Create and then navigate to a new folder where you want to store your project. Create a new node app with npm.

npm init

Accept the defaults for the application.

Install your dependencies

We will be using the axios package to make HTTP requests.

Use the following command to install the axios package:

npm install axios

Create your file

In your project folder, create a new file named index.js in the project and paste the provided "index.js" code into the file.

Fill in your parameters

Before you can run the code, you need to update some values so you can connect to your Sinch account. Update the following parameters with your own values:

Save the file.

Assign your phone number

Now you can execute the code and assign your phone number. Run the following command:

node index.js

In your console, you should see a success response showing that the phone number was added to the SIP trunk.
