  3. Select Advanced Call Flow in the number details pane.

Understanding the Advanced Call Flow builder interface

If you are starting to build new a call flow from scratch, the Advanced Call Flow builder starts with two mandatory, default call flow actions on the canvas: call start (advanced-call-flow-start-small) and call hangup (advanced-call-flow-hangup-small).

If you are editing an existing call flow, the call flow for your tracking number will be shown on the canvas.

The grey line between the actions indicates the direction of flow of an incoming call.
