Objective
This article shows you how to change the friendly name of a Bring your own carrier (BYOC) trunk so it is easier to identify in lists and reports.
Product
Programmable Voice
Environment
Twilio Console
User Account Permission/Role(s) Required
Your role must include permission to update BYOC trunks. Without it, the Rename action is not shown on the trunk's detail page.
Procedure
- In the Twilio Console, select Communications in the left sidebar.
- Select Voice, then Bring your own carrier.
- On the Trunks tab, select the trunk you want to rename.
- In the Properties section, select Rename.
- In the Rename BYOC Trunk dialog, the Trunk Friendly name field is pre-filled with the current name. Replace it with the new name.
- Select Save.
- A BYOC Trunk Renamed confirmation appears and the detail page shows the new name.
Additional Information
- A friendly name is required. Clearing the field and saving keeps the dialog open and shows the validation error instead of applying the change.
- Select Cancel to close the dialog without renaming the trunk.
- Renaming does not change the trunk's SID, so existing integrations that reference the SID keep working.
