    outbound_localization string

    A 2-character country code specifying the country whose national dialing rules should be used. For example, if set to US then any US number can be dialed without preprending +1 to the number. When left blank, Telnyx will try US and GB dialing rules, in that order, by default.

    inbound_channel_limit integer

    When set, this will limit the total number of inbound calls to phone numbers associated with this connection.

    outbound_channel_limit integer

    When set, this will limit the total number of outbound calls to phone numbers associated with this connection.

    onnet_t38_passthrough_enabled integer

    Enable on-net T38 if you prefer the sender and receiver negotiating T38 directly if both are on the Telnyx network. If this is disabled, Telnyx will be able to use T38 on just one leg of the call depending on each leg's settings.

    sip_region string

    Possible values: [US, Europe, Australia]

    Default value: US

    sip_uri_calling_preference string

    Possible values: [disabled, unrestricted, internal]

    Default value: disabled

    This feature enables inbound SIP URI calls to your Credential Auth Connection. If enabled for all (unrestricted) then anyone who calls the SIP URI @telnyx.com will be connected to your Connection. You can also choose to allow only calls that are originated on any Connections under your account (internal).

    sip_subdomain string

    Specifies a subdomain that can be used to receive Inbound calls to a Connection, in the same way a phone number is used, from a SIP endpoint. Example: the subdomain "example.sip.telnyx.com" can be called from any SIP endpoint by using the SIP URI "sip:@example.sip.telnyx.com" where the user part can be any alphanumeric value. Please note TLS encrypted calls are not allowed for subdomain calls.

    sip_subdomain_receive_settings string

    Possible values: [only_my_connections, from_anyone]

    This option can be enabled to receive calls from: "Anyone" (any SIP endpoint in the public Internet) or "Only my connections" (any connection assigned to the same Telnyx user).

    webhook_api_version string

    Possible values: [1, 2]

    Default value: 1
