When someone calls your phone number, Astradial needs to know where to send that call. This is called routing. You can route calls to different destinations depending on your needs.

Common routing setups

​
Route to a receptionist

Route your main phone number to a single person:
  • Routing type: Extension
  • Destination: 1001 (receptionist’s extension)

​
Route to a call center queue

Put callers in line and distribute to available agents:
  • Routing type: Queue
  • Destination: 5001 (your support queue)

​
Route to an IVR

Play a menu and let the caller pick:
  • Routing type: IVR
  • Destination: Pick your IVR from the dropdown
See Create an IVR if you haven’t built one yet. An IVR must be published before it shows up in the dropdown.

​
Route to an AI bot

Let an AI assistant answer the call first:
  • Routing type: AI Agent
  • Destination: The WebSocket URL from your bot configuration

​
Forward to a mobile number

Send calls to an outside phone:
  • Routing type: External
  • Destination: +919944421125
You can change routing at any time. For example, route to an AI bot during off-hours and to a queue during business hours.
