If you have phone fields encrypted in Salesforce, you need to make an
update in the CCAI Platform portal to allow searching for phone numbers
in your instance. If you encounter issues with search, verify that
encryption is properly configured in the Salesforce tenant. To verify you have
encryption configured correctly, see Enable encryption on standard properties.
