Assign Teams Phone Mobile number to user
I am piloting Teams Phone Mobile with Verizon. I have everything setup on Verizon's side. Now I want to assign this number to a user.
First, I tried using admin center. I went to Voice > Phone Numbers > chose the phone number > Edit. However, when I search for users, I can't find any users. The user I'm testing it on is in Teams Only mode.
So, I tried assigning the number with Powershell as described here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/assign-change-or-remove-a-phone-number-for-a-user . I used this command: Set-CsPhoneNumberAssignment -Identity <user> -PhoneNumber <phone number> -PhoneNumberType OCMobile
I got this:
Microsoft.Teams.ConfigAPI.Cmdlets.internal\Set-CsPhoneNumberAssignment : Could not resolve phoneNumberType 'OCMobile'.
Available phoneNumberType values are 'DirectRouting', 'CallingPlan', 'OperatorConnect'.
At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\MicrosoftTeams\4.5.0\custom\PsExt\Merged_custom_PsExt.ps1:6216 char:9

neNumberAssignment_Set], Exception

ent_Set
So, I tried this:
Set-CsPhoneNumberAssignment -Identity email address removed for privacy reasons -PhoneNumber "+17175758181" -PhoneNumberType OperatorConnect
Then I got this:
Microsoft.Teams.ConfigAPI.Cmdlets.internal\Set-CsPhoneNumberAssignment : The user '***@***' is not found

Any suggestions on how to resolve this?
- So, I figured it out. I had to remove the calling plan license. Then it worked fine.

- do you a calling plan license assigned to the user ?
- DJTentmanBrass ContributorNo, I thought that the point of Operator Connect/Teams Phone Mobile is that it's not required. I did add the free Teams Phone Mobile add-on license, but that didn't help.
- if you need your numbers to be issued from Microsoft that your user requires a calling plan license to be able to assing him a phone number
