Port request stats

A port request can be in one of seven states:

  • unconfirmed: A port request has been created, but the details have not been confirmed and the port process has not started.
  • submitted: Indicates the number port is ready to be processed and sent to the losing carrier.
  • pending: The port was submitted to the losing carrier.
  • scheduled: The port is in progress and the losing carrier has been notified.
  • completed: The port request has been finished, and numbers are activated.
  • rejected: Something has gone wrong during the port process. The port can be resubmitted.
  • canceled: The port request is definitely canceled and cannot be resubmitted.

Port authority (Port Agent)

Port authority (sometimes called port agent or simply agent) is an account in Kazoo system which is responsible for managing their sub account port requests. They are responsible to submitted and oversees port request to losing/winner carrier.

Master account is default port authority.

If you want to manage port request for your sub account, you have to white label your account and set “I will manage port request from my account” in Branding application, “Advanced” tab. If you select that option, you have to set an Email address for port “Support Contact” in the same section.

List port requests

Port request API URL path has specific meaning:

  • /v2/port_requests: List port requests that the authenticated account is port authority for.
  • /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/port_requests: List only port request for a specific account.
  • /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/descendants/port_requests: List all sub-accounts port requests.

List port requests by type

You can issue GET requests to find all ports in a particular state.

All requests are not paginated, with the exception of the completed state. Use pagination toggles for date range as desired.

To do this add by_types query string to the request. If you don’t set by_types, by default active port request will be shown. Possible values are:

  • all: Lists port requests in any state
  • active: Lists port requests which are in these states:
    • unconfirmed
    • submitted
    • pending
    • scheduled
    • rejected
  • progressing: Lists port requests which are in these states:
    • submitted
    • pending
    • scheduled
  • suspended: Lists port requests which are in these states:
    • unconfirmed
    • rejected
  • completed: Lists port requests which are in these states:
    • completed
    • canceled
  • last_submitted: Lists all port requests by their last transition to the submitted state
  • Port requests states: List port requests bu their states:
    • unconfirmed
    • submitted
    • pending
    • scheduled
    • completed
    • rejected
    • canceled

Example usage of by_type

Here an example of setting by_types:

/v2/port_requests?by_types=prgressing
/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/port_requests?by_types=prgressing

You can also specify multiple types by separating them by comma like example below:

/v2/port_requests?by_types=pending,scheduled,rejected
/v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/port_requests?by_types=pending,scheduled,rejected

Search/list a port request by phone number

For finding a port request by a phone number set by_number in query string. Including an account ID in the URL will change how the port requests are searched:

  • /v2/port_requests?by_number={PHONE_NUMBER}: This will search for port request in the authenticated account and all its sub-accounts.
  • /v2/accounts/{ACCOUNT_ID}/port_requests: This will search in the {ACCOUNT_ID} and all its sub-account

Check Local Number Portability

This API is an interface to Local Number Portability (LNP) service providers. During creating Port Request you can use this API to check if numbers are portable, determine their current carrier and which carriers they are portable to.

LNP service providers can be carriers (like Bandwidth) or other services. Calling this API will query all these providers and perform an LNP lookup for all the numbers specified.

Updating a port request status

When PATCHing a port request a reason can be added to the transition with the following request value:

  • reason: an optional string that can be used to describe the reason for the transition

This information will then be available in the timeline.

Note: request values can be set either in the query string or in the data payload.
