The Flex Dialpad has various settings that you can modify. To see the defaults, log in to the Twilio Console and navigate to the Flex Settings page.
| Field Name | Description |
|---|---|
| Caller ID | Manage which Twilio phone number you want to use as the default Caller ID for outbound calls. |
| TaskQueue | Manage which TaskRouter TaskQueue you want to use for outbound calls. The agent must be a member of that TaskQueue. The queue will also be used for reporting in TaskRouter Events and Flex Insights. |
| TaskRouter Workflow | Manage which TaskRouter Workflow you want to use for outbound calls. The workflow will be used to determine Task Reservation Timeout and Assignment Callback URL. Routing rules will be ignored, and the task will be assigned to the agent using the Dialpad. |
| Country | Manage the default country code for your Dialpad. Choose a country code that will be the most useful for the majority of your agents. |
