Sinch Porting API
Overview
The Porting API automates port-in operations — transferring phone numbers from another carrier into Sinch. It supports portability checks, order creation and management, document uploads, on-demand activation, and webhook notifications for status updates. Currently supports North American (US/CA) numbers only.
Instructions
Before generating code, gather from the user:
- Approach — SDK or direct API calls (curl/fetch)?
- Use case — Portability check, create order, track order, activate numbers?
- Activation mode (only for create order) — Automatic (on
desiredPortDate) or on-demand (onDemandActivation: true)?
Note: The @sinch/sdk-core Node.js SDK does not currently have dedicated porting methods. Use direct HTTP calls for all porting operations.
