Voice Calls

Accept incoming customer calls, manage the call session, and continue in text.

Control Center supports voice calls alongside text chat. When a customer calls, the call is routed to available agents.

Receiving a Call

  1. An inbound call notification appears with the customer's name.
  2. Click Accept to pick up the call, or Decline to let it route to another agent.

Note: A ringtone plays while the notification is active, so you won't miss incoming calls.

During a Call

Once accepted, the call session opens with two controls:

  • Mute — toggle your microphone on or off
  • Speaker — adjust audio output

Your status automatically switches to In a Call.

Text Alongside Voice

The conversation transcript continues in the same thread during and after the call. You can see any text messages exchanged before the call started and add follow-up messages after it ends.

Note: While a voice call is active, the text input box is hidden. It reappears once the call ends.

Identifying Voice Conversations

Voice conversations are marked with a phone icon in the conversations list, making them easy to distinguish from text chats.
