  2. Adding a Digital Line (KB 3136). - The application should have an allocated Digital Line. A limited number of Digital Lines are free with each sandbox account and can be configured with the free RingCentral for Desktop softphone. - http://success.ringcentral.com/articles/RC_Knowledge_Article/5-10-Adding-Phones-to-other-extensions-via-Web
