Extension Codes

At a high level, extension codes let you customize the functionality of your phone system. You can use extension codes to add new functionality to your call flows such as cold transfers and voicemail or add complex features such as intercom, custom IVRs, and more.

By default, extension codes in Lineblocs can be customized using the Lineblocs flow editor. You can also create as many extension codes as you need and assign them to custom workflows using Lineblocs flows.

Viewing Extension Codes

To view the extension codes you have setup on your account, please go to Settings -> Extension Codes

Adding an Extension Code

You will need to give your extension code a name, code and flow. For example:
