Why do you need it?

At some point, you may need to release a large amount of numbers in order to purchase new ones. This can be tedious to delete one by one, so this example shows one way that you can release numbers in bulk with ease.

What does it do?

This code snippet will read a CSV of numbers that you want to delete, compare it with the full list of numbers within your project, and release all the ones that match the CSV. Please note: the CSV file containing the numbers to be deleted must be in the same folder as the below script

System/Technical specifications

For this code, the SignalWire Python SDK will need to be installed. It can be accessed here: SignalWire Python SDK Documentation.

What variables change

  • ProjectID - Your project ID is an alphanumeric string that tells the SignalWire SDK where to find your project. You can find this in an easily copyable format by going to yourSignalWire Portal and clicking the API tab on the left hand side.

  • AuthToken - Your Auth Token is an alphanumeric string that helps to authenticate your HTTP requests to SignalWire. You can create this (if you haven’t already) or copy this in an easily copyable format by going to your SignalWire Portal and clicking the API tab. If you have not created an API token, press the blue new button. If you have, click show and copy the string.

  • SpaceURL - Your space URL is the domain of your space, i.e. example.signalwire.com. This can also be found in an easily copyable format within the API tab in your SignalWire space.

  • You will need to replace the name ‘Numbers.csv’ with the name of your CSV file.
