Field NameDescription
Caller IDManage which Twilio phone number you want to use as the default Caller ID for outbound calls.
TaskQueueManage 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.
