Frequently Asked Questions
What is E.164 format and why is it required for SMS gateways and CRMs?
E.164 is the international public telecommunication numbering plan standard. An E.164 number includes the plus sign (`+`), country code, national destination code, and subscriber number without any spaces, dashes, or parentheses (e.g., `+14155552671`). SMS gateways (Twilio), VoIP providers, and CRMs require E.164 format to route calls and text messages globally.
How does the extractor distinguish phone numbers from random numbers and dates?
The extractor uses contextual regex heuristic validation that checks for valid area codes, country codes, digit group distributions, and surrounding delimiters, filtering out dates (`2024-10-06`), currency values, and random 10-digit serial numbers.
Can the extractor handle phone extensions (e.g., x104 or ext. 450)?
Yes. The extractor captures optional extension designations (`ext.`, `x`, `extension`) appended to telephone numbers, preserving them in an itemized column during CSV export.
Is this phone extraction tool safe for confidential customer lists?
Yes. The tool operates 100% locally in your browser. No phone numbers, customer records, or contact databases are ever uploaded to an external server.
