You're asking how to connect your Vonage phone number to LiveKit — here’s a concise path you can follow and the key steps you’ll need. 1. Configure Vonage • In your Vonage/Business account, create a SIP trunk and map the phone number to that trunk. • Point Vonage’s inbound/outbound SIP settings to your LiveKit SIP URI (example format:

sip:<your-subdomain>.sip.livekit.cloud

). • If Vonage requires authentication, provision the username/password they will use to register or authenticate to LiveKit. 1. Create an inbound trunk in LiveKit • Create an inbound trunk in LiveKit that includes the Vonage number(s). Example CLI flow: a. Prepare a JSON trunk definition with the number(s). b. Run

lk sip inbound create <file>.json

to create the trunk. • This makes LiveKit accept calls for those numbers. 1. Add a dispatch rule to route calls into rooms • Create a dispatch rule that maps incoming calls on that trunk to LiveKit rooms (for example, using a

roomPrefix

like

call-

or a rule that maps to a specific room). • Use the CLI/API to create the dispatch rule (e.g.,

lk sip dispatch create <rule>.json

). 1. (Optional) Attach an agent or room config • If you want calls answered by an AI voice agent or a specific config, include

roomConfig

in the dispatch rule so the agent or room settings load when calls arrive. 1. Test the setup • Place a call to the Vonage number and confirm it reaches the LiveKit room/agent. • Verify audio, authentication, and any SIP headers required by Vonage. If you’d like, tell me: • Whether you prefer CLI or API instructions, • The Vonage SIP URI/auth method you plan to use, and • Whether you want calls routed to a specific room, a room per caller (prefix), or an AI agent. I can then provide the exact example JSON and CLI/API commands to use.
