Question: How do I port my phone number that's registered in the US or Canada (+1 country code) in Amazon Connect?

I am trying to port my US (+1 country code) numbers in Amazon Connect, but I am unsure of how to do this. How do I start the process for porting my numbers?ResolutionCreate a support case to port your numbers into Amazon Connect. Before you submit your case, determine if your number is a toll-free number (TFN) or a direct inward dial (DID) number. Toll-free numbers have an area code that begins with an "8" and that repeats the next two numbers. These TFNs include the following area codes:800833844855866877If your number doesn't follow this pattern, your phone number is a DID number.Note: This process is for phone numbers registered in the US or Canada. For all other numbers, see How do I port my phone number that's not registered in the US or Canada (+1 country code) in Amazon Connect?Porting toll-free numbersIf you are porting toll-free numbers, include the following information when submitting your case to AWS Support:Connect instance ARN where the number will resideToll-free number or numbers in E.164 format(Optional) Exact name of the contact flow where the numbers must be mapped to after receiving porting approvalNote: Specifying the contact flow information allows AWS Support to map the number to a contact flow when adding the number to the Amazon Connect instance.
