Abstract
Techniques for delivering telephone access are provided. In one embodiment, a server system can determine a telephone number assigned to a user operating a client device. The server system can further retrieve, based on the telephone number, softphone configuration data from a telephony service, where the softphone configuration data enables a softphone associated with the client device to register itself, and the telephone number, with the telephony service. The server system can then transmit the softphone configuration data to the client device.
