Can call filter / blocklist use wildcards?

Post by paul »

Can call filter / blocklist match inbound calls against a number with a wildcard?

e.g., can I add

1650555*

to block all numbers that start with that?

Yes, You can. Create a blocking rule, and then set the filter type to number.

Ref our discussion on putting all blacklist numbers into a single contact and then ticking the option "All calls to voicemail"...

viewtopic.php?f=6&t=3722

Is it possible that I can add a number to that contact in the form "+nnn *" and have all calls from that country code sent to voicemail? Or do you have to set up a rule for that?

Hi pollensa1946
You can now achieve this, create a rule to select "number filters" in the call filter.
