Check AddressBook API here: https://developers.ringcentral.com/api-reference/address-book for getting and updating phone numbers

Thank you for this answer @Anirban, however, what I am trying to do is to add or remove a phone number assigned to someone from the inventory of Phone Numbers, When I did it by the UI I see it is done by some call like this:

https://service.ringcentral.com/mobile/api/proxy.html?cmd=numbers.getNumbers&uuid=2105169027_1618430031842_912466_1942344027

or by similar POST where cmd has different values, but those calls are using a CSRFTOKEN instead of Barear.

Hi Francisco,
I'm trying to get as much accurate info as I can from an account, and the billing API which uses the CSRFTOKEN is pretty good at displaying that info.
Could you please tell me more about how you managed to get the token? Do you need to refresh it each time? Can you use it to POST and PUT actions?
I want to assess the feasibility of using this non-exposed API, and it seems that you have figured it out.
