Short answer

How can I check my Plivo numbers and apps in chat?

Your AI uses the Plivo MCP to pull your current phone number list and application configurations. You'll get a clear view of your inventory and settings immediately. This breakdown shows how the data moves from Plivo to your chat window.

Inventory outcomes

Where your data lands.

Your AI translates Plivo data into clear, actionable lists.

INVENTORY

View active numbers

The AI pulls your current phone number list. You'll see exactly which numbers are active in your account.

CONFIG

Check app settings

Your agent retrieves details on configured applications. This helps you verify how your voice or SMS apps are set up.

AUDIT

Verify number status

The AI scans your inventory to find specific numbers. You can quickly confirm if a number is available or assigned.

HUMAN

Manual updates needed

The AI only reads data. If you need to buy a new number or change a webhook, you still use the Plivo dashboard.

The workflow

What your AI does when the request arrives.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat window and the Plivo API.

  1. Fetch number list

    The AI requests a full list of your current phone numbers from Plivo.
