Once you release a number, it can’t be recovered. You can still access calling data, but you can’t make calls with the number. Admins can release, at most, a single number for each user each month.

Reassigning a number to another user is not yet supported.

Released custom numbers can continue to be used if they’re still available.

  1. From Setup, enter Number Management in the Quick Find box, then select Number Management.
  2. Click action dropdown next to a number.
  3. Click Release.
