## Step 3: Provide Verification Details

These details must comply with local emergency service regulations and correspond to the **Country** and **Number Type**
selected in the previous step.

1. From the **Identity** dropdown, select an existing identity. If no identity is available, click **Create New** to add a new one.
2. Once the identity is selected, choose the corresponding **Address** from the dropdown list. You can also click **Create New** to add a new address for the chosen identity.
3. Click **Next** to continue to the **Source Numbers** step.

Note

## Step 4: Select Source Numbers (DIDs)

Select the DID numbers that will be enabled for emergency calling.
Only numbers that match the selected **Identity**, **Country**, and **Number Type**, and support emergency calling, will
be shown.

1. (Optional) Use the **DID Number** or **Description** filters to search for available numbers.
2. In the **Available Source Numbers** table, select the DID numbers you want to include using the checkboxes.
3. Review your selections, then click **Next** to continue to the **Summary** step.

Note

- Selected DID numbers are added to the **Allowed source addresses** panel, where they are displayed as chips and can be removed if needed.
- DID numbers linked to a different verified identity than the one selected in the **Verification Details** step (for example, used for **End User Registration**, **A2P SMS Campaigns**, or **CNAM**) will not appear in the available source numbers list. To include these numbers, select the same identity used for their verification.
- If there are **more than 200** available source addresses, the table is paginated with 200 records per page.
