When to use this.
The Normalize Phone Number action utilizes TexAu's normalize-phone-number API to standardize and validate phone numbers across multiple formats, including E.164, national, and RFC3966. By inputting a phone number as a text parameter, users can obtain essential metadata such as country code, region, and validity status. The output includes fields like can_be_internationally_dialed (boolean), country_code (countryCode), and various phone formats (e164_format, international_format, national_format, rfc3966_format), along with indicators for validity and parsing success. This action is particularly useful for businesses needing to enrich customer contact data, ensuring accurate communication and compliance with international dialing standards. It falls under the enrichment category, making it ideal for applications in customer relationship management (CRM), marketing automation, and data validation processes.

FAQ.
Is this real-time?
Mostly. Fast actions fill the cell in a few seconds. Long-running ones run in the background and write back to the row when they finish, so you can close the tab.
Do I get charged on failure?
No. A failed lookup costs zero credits. When a provider misses or times out, the waterfall moves to the next one and you only pay for the match you actually got.
Do I have to run it row by row?
No. Run it on one cell, on a selection, on the whole table, or on a schedule. Same action either way.
What CRMs can I push results to?
HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho, and GoHighLevel are bidirectional. Smartlead, Instantly, Lemlist, HeyReach, Apollo Sequences, and Reply.io for outbound.
