Call Forwarding
Lookup's Call Forwarding package allows you to get the unconditional call forwarding status of a mobile phone number.
Call Forwarding Lookups are billed per Lookup, even if data may not be available. Currently, requesting Call Forwarding Lookups for unsupported carriers will return null values, but will not be billed.
To make a Call Forwarding request, add call_forwarding to the optional query parameter Fields when making a standard Lookup request.
curl -X GET "https://lookups.twilio.com/v2/PhoneNumbers/{PhoneNumber}?Fields=call_forwarding" \ -u
