# Testing an Inbound Assistant

> Test the saved number and routing for an inbound assistant.

1. Open the assistant in Advanced and set the direction to receive calls under **General**.
2. Assign an inbound-capable number. A number configured only as outbound caller ID cannot receive calls.
3. Save the assistant and open **Test assistant**.
4. Dial the number shown under **Call this number**.

If the number is shown under **Goes live after you save**, save your changes first. Until then, calls follow the previously saved routing. If you have no number yet, use browser voice or text chat to test the assistant. Use a real phone call to verify routing and transfers.
