Quick Configuration for Outbound Calls

Last updated: 2024-04-02 09:55:19

    Prerequisites

    Before officially making the call, please ensure the following steps have been completed:
    1. Creating the Cloud Contact Center application has been completed.
    2. Purchased seats and added customer service accounts.
    Note:
    We recommend using the Google Chrome browser for a better experience.
    Overall, the call operation can be completed through two configurations:
    1. Configuring a phone skill group
    2. Binding a phone number to the skill group
    Specific ways of configuration are discussed below.

    Step 1: Log In to the Cloud Contact Center Agent Workstation

    Go to the Cloud Contact Center agent workstation. For detailed login methods, please refer to Solution 1: Ready to Use Without Development.

    Step 2: Configure the Phone Skill Group

    Choose Management Panel-Telephone Customer Service-Skill Group Management to create or add an agent account.
    
    
    
    Click Edit and add a customer service account.
    
    
    

    Step 3: Configure the Skill Group in Number Management

    Note:
    If no number management outbound call skill group has been configured, a number will be selected randomly from all available outbound numbers at the time of outbound calling. If there are multiple numbers, you can configure different skill groups to use different numbers.
    Choose Management Panel- Telephone Customer Service-Number Management.
    
    
    
    Edit and select the above skill group. After the configuration is complete, the agents in this skill group will select this number for outbound calls.
    
    
    

    Step 4: Check Whether the Microphone Is Authorized

    Click the lock icon in the browser address bar (upper left corner), check the permissions that the website has accessed, and check whether the computer is connected to a microphone.
    
    
    

    Step 5: Enter the Number to Make an Outbound Call

    Click Outbound Call in the upper left corner and enter the corresponding contact number. Add the area code for the landline number.
    Note:
    You will be prompted that the outbound call has failed if there are outbound call restrictions. Please refer to Outbound call rules for phone numbers for details.

    More Ways to Make Outbound Calls

    Cloud Contact Center offers various ways to make outbound calls. You can choose a suitable method based on your actual conditions:
    Outbound Call on Dial Pad: You can directly enter the phone number to make an outbound call on Cloud Contact Center, using the configured outbound caller number to call.
    SDK Outbound Call: We provide an SDK for rapid integration, and developers can make outbound calls through the SDK API.
    API Dual Call: We also provide an HTTP method to use the outbound call API. In the scenario where SDK is not loaded in the frontend, you can trigger this API to make an outbound call from the backend. Currently, only mobile callbacks are supported (first connect to agent's mobile), and it has been confirmed that the outbound call whitelist has been applied and approved.
    SIP Phone Usage: Cloud Contact Center allows customers to connect the purchased SIP landline phones with the agents on Cloud Contact Center, so that the agents can make calls using the landline phone.
