Portal Web Dialer Released
We’re excited to announce a new Web Dialer tool which is now live within the Telnyx Mission Control Portal.
Our new Web Dialer tool is powered by Telnyx’s own WebRTC product and enables you to make test calls directly from your browser. This provides an easy means of verifying that your phone number and connection are correctly configured.
The Web Dialer allows you to select a specific connection and phone number to test, with the added functionality of being able to set the Caller ID name. Follow the call state in real-time as the call progresses with each step displayed on-screen.
