Remove the resource from a phone number

Beta
View as MarkdownOpen in Claude
Removes the resource from a phone number's channel, so inbound calls or messages on that channel no longer reach it. The number stays in your project, the resource is not deleted, and the address remains with `resource_id` set to `null`, so it still appears in [List phone number addresses](/docs/apis/rest/phone-number-addresses/list-phone-number-addresses). To give up the number itself, use [Release phone number](/docs/apis/rest/phone-numbers/release-phone-number). <Warning title="Beta">This API is in beta and may change.</Warning> #### Permissions The API token used to authenticate must have the following scope(s) enabled to make a successful request: _Calling_, _Fax_, _Messaging_, or _Video_. [Learn more about API scopes](/docs/platform/your-signalwire-api-space).
