To get started using SENTRY Call blocking there are three things must take place:
- A business completes First Orion's Business Number Registration. Upon registration via the Customer Portal or API, First Orion verifies that your business is legitimate. This is a free service that is a pre-requisite to use several of First Orion's’ product offerings. To get started with business registration, click here.
- After vetting of the business has been successful, vetting of each number that is submitted for SENTRY Call Blocking takes place. The business must submit the telephone numbers for each SENTRY Call Blocking program so First Orion can establish Right of Use.
- Next the business chooses an integration method.
There are two integration options available for SENTRY Call Blocking: REST API and SIP
Both integration methods deliver the same outcome. Your method of choice is simply based on your current calling platform(s) and what works best for your business. First Orion’s Integration Support is available to help you throughout the integration process.
NOTE: Our API and SIP integrations are designed to easily integrate, however, there may be additional requirements depending on your call initiation processes and platform configuration.
