# Set up your Voice Agent routing

## Overview

After your Voice Agent is configured, connect it to your phone system so it can start receiving calls. The setup process differs depending on whether you use Basic Phones or Phones Pro (Dialpad). Follow the steps below based on your phone system configuration.

## Things to know

- Before routing live calls, set up a test line first to confirm the voice agent is receiving calls correctly without affecting your production routing. Any test calls you place with the Voice Agent will be included in your bill.
- Customers should **not** dial the Voice Agent Forwarding Number directly, as these calls won't be logged in the **Search > Calls** section of your ServiceTitan account.

## Set up routing for Basic Phones

### Test line

To test the Voice Agent without affecting your live routing, set up a dedicated tracking number first.

1. Go to the top toolbar and click **Settings** ![A simple icon representing a settings gear. ](https://cdn.document360.io/961862ab-d0f2-4d91-bb62-a62ee8184eff/Images/Documentation/icon-gnav-settings-inactive.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-27T16%3A20%3A30Z&se=2026-10-27T17%3A20%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=Ldy7j%2Fz1pl%2B8KhKi%2Bh%2Bp2HGcPl%2BY5lZAPhS4eTq2714%3D).
2. In the side panel, go to **Phones > Phone Numbers**.
3. Select an existing number or [create a new one](/v1/docs/add-or-edit-tracking-numbers).
4. In the *Set Forwarding Number* section, enter your **Voice Agent Forwarding Number**.
5. When finished, click **Save** or **Add Number** for newly added numbers.

![User interface for setting a forwarding number and SMS options in a call system.](https://cdn.document360.io/961862ab-d0f2-4d91-bb62-a62ee8184eff/Images/Documentation/set-up-your-voice-agent-routing---how-to-article-office-employee-audience-1-image-q07i1pz6.jpg?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-27T16%3A20%3A30Z&se=2026-10-27T17%3A20%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=Ldy7j%2Fz1pl%2B8KhKi%2Bh%2Bp2HGcPl%2BY5lZAPhS4eTq2714%3D)

1. Place a call to the tracking number and check if the call gets connected to a voice agent.
2. After the testing is complete, update the forwarding number back to your standard tracking number to ensure calls route correctly if the number is used again.

### Live line

Call routing for a live line is configured inside your third-party phone system — not in ServiceTitan.

1. Log in to your third-party phone system and find the queue or routing rule associated with your main line.
2. Update the forwarding destination in your workflow to the **Voice Agent Forwarding Number**.

> [!NOTE]
> **Note:** This can be applied at the end of a queue (when no agents are available) or via date/time-based routing rules — for example, after hours.
3. Save your changes.
4. Verify by testing the queue trigger condition — for example, let the queue time out and confirm the call reaches the voice agent.

> [!TIP]
> **Tip:** Use date/time rules to send calls to the Voice Agent outside business hours while keeping your team as the primary destination during the day.

## Set up routing for Phones Pro

Numbers are added in ServiceTitan. Call routing is configured in Dialpad using *Contact Centers* and *Departments*.

### Test line

Set up an isolated Contact Center in Dialpad to test the voice agent without affecting your routing.

1. In ServiceTitan:
  1. Go to the top toolbar and click **Settings** ![A simple icon representing a settings gear. ](https://cdn.document360.io/961862ab-d0f2-4d91-bb62-a62ee8184eff/Images/Documentation/icon-gnav-settings-inactive.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-27T16%3A20%3A30Z&se=2026-10-27T17%3A20%3A30Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=Ldy7j%2Fz1pl%2B8KhKi%2Bh%2Bp2HGcPl%2BY5lZAPhS4eTq2714%3D).
