Authorization Document Resource

(error)

Danger

The Hosted Phone Numbers API is currently in development, this documentation exists to support customers who are already using the API. A new version of this API will be released as a generally available (GA) product in the near future.

An Authorization Document is a resource representing a legally binding document between Twilio and a customer to Authorize Twilio to run messaging traffic on a given set of Phone Numbers.

Hosted Number Orders can be assigned to an Authorization Document detailing which Address a Hosted Number Order is activated with. Once the Authorization Document has been signed, the Hosted Number Orders will then be registered to Twilio for routing capability.
