I have one twilio number XXXXXXXXXX , now using which I want my users to experience the calling functionalities as I can't afford individual number for each user.
Thus I need to know how to retrieve status of my own number? Basically if the number is being used for another call at the moment.
One thought is making a call to the number itself, but that would give me status busy in the first place.
Would request help in the following. TIA

Twilio numbers themselves will never be busy. A Twilio number can route new calls even while other calls are ongoing. The only thing that could be busy is a non-Twilio number that you are trying to forward a call to.
