The following works for me:

faxResolution: 'High'

Please note that it should be 'High' instead of 'HIGH' or 'high'.

Hi Tyler,

Thanks for the reply.

its not just about the fax , but also with other parameters. i tried the code that is there on github.

           var sdk = new SDK(appKey, appSecret, sandboxServer, "Dispatcher", "");
            // Password Grant Authorization
            var response1 = sdk.Platform.Login(username, extension, password, true);
            const string text = "Hello world!";           
            var json = "{\"to\":[{\"phoneNumber\":\"+912267676262\"}],\"faxResolution\":\"High\"}";
            var request = new Request("/restapi/v1.0/account/~/extension/~/fax", json);
            var response = sdk.Platform.Post(request);

here is the sample code.

To send fax, you need to use FormData. Please check the code here:  https://github.com/tylerlong/rc-commander/blob/master/rc-fax.js  

There are two issues in your code:  1. "const string text = ..." is declared but unused.  2. you are not using FormData to send fax.

https://github.com/ringcentral/ringcentral-js#fax  The official doc says you should use FormData. I doubt that it will ever work if you don't use it. 

Only RingCentral staff have access to api logs on server side. I am not sure if that is what you mean.

If you don't have issues about fax sending any more. I suggest you creating a new ticket for the new issues and describe your question in detail. To be frank I am not an expert on account configuration. So it's better for you to create a new ticket with title "International calling disabled issue".  By doing that you will get help from others sooner.
