3. HubSpot integration - Please refer to our documentation to install and accurately configure your HubSpot integration.
- Caller ID form - I suggest completing this form to set up Caller ID for your numbers. There are limits as described in the Caller ID Request guide. Just submit a ticket here under 'Contact Us' once you've signed in with your login credentials. Select Numbers and Porting Request, then select 'submit CNAM' request as the reason for reaching out.
- I also recommend including Stir/Shaken attestation in your registration by checking off that box.
- Spam mitigation resources – filling out the five carrier forms (AT&T, T-Mobile, etc.) will help build trust for your number and mitigate spam markers.
- SMS registration - to submit your registration through the Aircall Dashboard. Follow the steps in this article. We also have this step-by-step video and a guide that shows you how to complete the form. A2P10DLC is an industry-wide regulation and cannot be expedited. There is a 5-7 business-day waiting period for outbound SMS to fully activate once that number is live on Aircall and added to your approved SMS registration.
