@p2voice:
Circle of trust is primarily for Obi Endpoint-Obi Endpoint(via obitalk) trusted communication.
Trusted callers are for Google Chat users and Cellphone/landline/googlevoice numbers(Or in other words end points that can reach any of your trunks{sp1/sp2/li etc}).

In your specific case, he doesn't even have to call google voice and then get attendant to then subsequently call out. in his obitalk account, he can add your device as "default gateway" against his softphone number(your Obi device will show up in the dropdown when added to COT).
Once added,to make a call via ObiON, he can directly call the final destination number. it will go through the default trunk configured in your Obi.



Thanks for your reply. That is precisely what I didn't want to do - add him to my Circle of Trust. Because, if I have multiple OBi100 in by OBiTalk account, all of those show up in my friend's OBiTalk account as potential gateways to choose from. That's why I thought that by simply adding him as a "Trusted Caller", he wouldn't get that total access.

BTW, if I add someone in my COT, is possible to restrict that person's access to a specific OBi100 as a potential gateway?

Thanks.

earthtoobi:
i am not aware of a way of restricting the drop down that your friend sees when he is part of COT.(unless you move your different obi's to different accounts).

Your friend does not need to be part of COT to achieve what you want.

Please note that, that you have the control  as part of obitalkinboundcallroute to determine what services he(softphone number) can/cannot use.
you can restrict ALL access for specific Obi devices by just tweaking the obitalkinboundcallroute parameter in those devices.

so, in the above case since you cannot be his default gateway, he can call using your device the following way:
eg:
5*<phonenum>

where speed dial 5 is your Obi number

RonR:
Don't add your friend to anything in the OBiTALK Web Portal.  He doesn't need a Gmail account.  All he needs is an OBiON app on his smartphone.

Make the following addition to your OBiTALK InboundCallRoute:

Voice Services -> OBiTALK Service -> InboundCallRoute : {290123456:aa},...

where 290123456 is your friend's OBiON OBiTALK number.

When he dials your OBiTALK number from his OBiON app, it will access your Auto Attendant.

p2pvoice:
Thank you both @earthtoobi and @RonR:

I have never yet edited inbound route or anything like this but I will certainly try your suggestions.

Thanks, again.
