Find your fax numbers
What fax numbers do I have?
Ask your connected AI assistant to find your Fax.Plus numbers. Follow a read-only lookup, review the result, and understand empty responses and errors.

- Find the fax numbers associated with your connected Fax.Plus account.
- Review the returned numbers and any available status information.
- The lookup is read-only: it does not buy numbers, change assignments or send faxes.
Find the fax numbers associated with your Fax.Plus account without leaving your connected AI assistant. Ask a simple question, review the numbers returned, and organize the information into a useful summary.
Before you start
- Use an active Fax.Plus Basic plan or higher and an existing authorized Fax.Plus MCP connection.
- Use a compatible client with remote MCP support. These steps use Claude web; interface labels may differ in other clients.
- MCP is unavailable for accounts with Advanced Security Controls, including HIPAA and PHIPA configurations.
- Confirm that the connection uses the intended Fax.Plus account. Available information depends on that account's access.
For connection help, see the Fax.Plus MCP setup hub and the client connection guide.
How to find your fax numbers
- Open a new chat. Use your connected assistant with Fax.Plus available.
- Ask for your numbers. Enter “What fax numbers do I have?”
- Review the lookup. If your client requests approval, check that it is a numbers lookup. Claude may label this “List phone numbers”; the tool catalog calls it
list-numbers. - Check the response. Review the returned fax numbers and any available status or acquisition dates. Ask the assistant to identify information that is missing.
The lookup is read-only. It does not buy a number, change assignments or send a fax.
Example prompts
Use one of these prompts to retrieve your numbers or organize the information returned by the lookup. The filtering and formatting instructions apply to the returned list. Available fields and responses can vary; ask the assistant to identify missing information rather than guess.
Copy prompt
Show active numbers
Use list-numbers to retrieve my Fax.Plus numbers, then show only entries whose returned status is active. If status is missing, say so.
Make a simple table
Use list-numbers and put the returned fax numbers and their status in a table. Do not include account IDs, owner IDs or notification settings.
Get a private summary
Use list-numbers and tell me how many entries were returned and which statuses appear. Do not include fax numbers, email addresses or private identifiers. If the lookup fails, say so.
Understand the result
A successful lookup can return fax numbers and related information such as status and acquisition date. Use the fields present in your response; do not ask the assistant to invent missing details.
If the lookup succeeds with no entries, the returned list is empty. If the tool is unavailable or reports a failure, the lookup did not succeed; that does not establish that the account has no numbers. Check the connection and account access before trying again.
When completeness matters, ask whether the response indicates more results or a visibility limit. Keep full numbers and account identifiers out of shared screenshots or summaries.

FAQs
Does this prompt send a fax?
No. The list-numbers tool retrieves number information. Sending a fax is a separate action.
Can I ask for a table or a shorter summary?
Yes. Ask the assistant to organize the returned information using one of the examples above. It should use only the fields available in the lookup response.
What if my assistant cannot find the tool?
Check that the existing Fax.Plus connection is available in your client, that it uses the intended account and that the account meets the requirements above. Consult the connection guide or Alohi Help Center if setup needs attention.
How can I share a result without exposing my numbers?
Use the private-summary prompt. Review the answer before sharing it, and remove full fax numbers, email addresses and private identifiers.
Does an empty result mean I have no fax numbers?
Not always. A successful lookup that returns no entries means the returned list is empty. If the assistant says the tool is unavailable or the lookup failed, the lookup did not succeed, and that does not show that your account has no numbers. Check that FaxPlus is connected and enabled in the conversation, that the account is on a paid plan (Basic or higher) without Advanced Security Controls, and try again.
