# Phone Numbers

This endpoint shows you all the phone numbers that exist in your organization and lets you rent new numbers. It lets you label them and configure their settings.

There are a few types of phone numbers:
- `internal` - the number is owned and controlled by Close.
- `external` - the number is owned by you and can only be used for outbound Close calls as a caller ID (e.g. your company cell phone number).
- `virtual` - the number is owned by you, but calls are routed to Close via [BYOC](https://help.close.com/docs/bring-your-own-carrier-byoc).

Whether a phone number belongs to an individual user or to a group is determined by the `is_group_number` boolean. [Learn more about group numbers](https://help.close.com/docs/setting-up-calling#section-add-a-group-number).

If a phone number is a group number, it will list all participating users' IDs in `participants` and all participating phone numbers in `phone_numbers`.
