How to Configure Incident Type Phone Numbers

This article provides details on how to setup specific phone numbers for your incident types and geofences

With Incident Type Numbers, you can control the phone number that is suggested to Mobile App Users when they trigger an emergency activation or local assist activation and choose an incident type. The number that is configured will take precedence to any default phone numbers that have been set when creating and configuring the Geofence.
