We have 4 extensions in our office, all in same call queue and set to simultaneous ring. Problem is, one of the phones is receiving calls frequently that aren’t ringing to everyone. When the desk is not manned, how can we (others in call queue) grab that call without physically running across the room to answer it?

Hello, Is there a way to port in numbers without assigning them to extensions but placing them into inventory? Thank you, Susan

I'm working with the Consent API. My flow is as follows, Make a request to Opt In a customer phone number for SMSUse a GET request to confirm the Opt In has been registered. Below is my code snippet  SmsOptRecord smsOptRecord = new SmsOptRecord(); smsOptRecord.from(RINGOUT_CALLER); smsOptRecord.to(RINGOUT_RECIPIENT); smsOptRecord.optStatus("OptIn"); smsOptRecord.source("Api"); Map<String, Object> body = new HashMap<>(); body.put("records", List.of(smsOptRecord)); var createConsent = rc.patch("/restapi/v2/accounts/~/sms/consents", body); System.out.println(createConsent.string()); Map<String, Object> getConsentsRequestBody = new HashMap<>(); getConsentsRequestBody.put("from", List.of(RINGOUT_CALLER)); getConsentsRequestBody.put("optStatus", List.of("OptIn"));// var getConsents = rc.get("restapi/v2/accounts/~/sms/consents")

Randomly I have several numbers that the location is not the same as the others within the number range.  How can I update this so that the CalleID is showing correctly? For example 50 numbers will show Location:  United States, Boston, MA while two are showing Location:  United States, Brockton, MA.  When these two employees make outbound calls their CallerID is showing Brockton, MA as opposed to Boston, MA. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I need to configure the extensions of our executives so that they do not receive DID calls, but they can receive them when transferred from the receptionist (or other extension) and they can place outbound calls.  The receptionist runs call interference for them and transfers good calls to their extension.I have tried adding a call rule to forward calls that dial their (required) DID number to our main company number (receptionist). The result is the call cannot be transferred to the executives’ extension.  It circles back to the receptionist.

How do I move an agent to a different group? 

We have been using Redtail CRM x RingCentral Extension for call handling going on 4 years. We’ve dealt with one-off issues here and there but for the most part, it’s work seamlessly. For the past 2 months we’ve started to experience problems - if someone calls the office main line, I answer then forward to the proper office extension, that office extension answers in the ringcentral extension within redtail, but cannot hear the client on the line. Now immediately after hanging up, the office extension can dial out to the client it works fine. Or if the office extension answers the call directly, no problems there. It appears the problem is when the call is forwarded. Important note: none of the audio/microphone settings were changed. After we experience the problem, i will then test the same exact process, it then will work. Its extremely frustrating and unprofessional.  ETA: as of this morning I redownloaded the ringcentral extension to the office extension redtail. I tested it twice

Our organization is currently seeking assistance with the following NICE API.https://developer.niceincontact.com/API/InteractionAnalyticsAPI#/We would like our call transcripts from Interaction Analytics to be pulled into HubSpot associated with our already current integration. We currently have all our calls logging but we are interested in having transcripts as well.

US Account - Is there a way using Ring Central to schedule text messages to send at a future date and time?  We would like to schedule text messages to go out over the weekend when we're not in the office.  Thank you!

I’m working on a PoC for SMS Opt In/Out with our CRM. I'm performing the following request in a Java app using the latest SDK. My app is authenticating using Client Id/Secret and JWT. var response2 = rc.patch("/restapi/v2/accounts/~/sms/consents", body); This is the response body I get back.{"errorCode":"CMN-408","message":"Unauthorized access","errors":[{"errorCode":"CMN-408","message":"Unauthorized access"}]}I have confirmed that my app has the SMS scope and the SMSSending Feature Flag is turned on. Can you help me troubleshoot what permission/access I might be missing? I have already gone through the getting started tutorial and performed a successful “Ring Out” request, so I know that other REST requests do work.

Call used to ring on the desk phone and RC Mobil App, now it only rings on desk phone.  Its been like this for a couple of months.  Is there a resolution?  I am mobile most of the day not at my desk and don't want the calls forwarded to my cell number because I loose the caller ID.

If I am using a third party SIP application how would I park a call?From a deskset there is a call-park button but from an app I need the proper feature access code.

Hi All,For context, we’ve recently migrated our organisation from Mitel to RingCentral, and our users are utilising the Microsoft Teams plugin.Previously, in the Mitel system, Reception could enable a “Night Mode” to forward calls to a specified location. In that setup, calls were directed to the Reception extension rather than a call queue.In RingCentral, we’ve moved away from direct extensions for Reception and implemented call queues for better control. However, Reception is finding it difficult to forward calls—they currently need to log into the RingCentral portal, which involves multiple steps and is cumbersome.Is there an easier way to allow Reception to forward queue calls without accessing the RingCentral portal?Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.Many thanks,Jacob

Hi All,I’m looking for a better way to configure User Groups so that managers can view analytics for the employees who report directly to them. In some cases, multiple managers need access to the same set of users.Is there an easy way to achieve this, or do I need to create separate User Groups for each manager even though the users are identical? Ideally, I’d like to have a single User Group with multiple managers assigned.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.Many thanks,Jacob

I am trying to retrieve all  Transcripts , for the entire account, that occurred in  a date range, or possibly where the AI was completed in the date range   i would like to just use  http requests as opposed to the Ringcentral library.  is this possible?   

Hi Team,I believe I may have identified a bug affecting the RingCentral RingCX Salesforce integration when calls are handled through the RingCentral Phone via the RingCentral for Google Chrome add-on.Issues observed: When accepting a call through the Chrome add-on pathway, the Mute button within the RingCX Salesforce Widget becomes greyed out and cannot be selected. If I select any option within the Chrome add-on (e.g., Messages, Dialpad, etc.), the active call exits and can no longer be accessed from within the add-on. Business context:We are encouraging agents to remain within the Salesforce environment so they can: Add the Client ID and Case ID to the call Complete the dispositions accurately Fully leverage RingSense AI features, including call transcriptions At present, the RingCX Salesforce integration does not allow users to manage audio settings or ringtones, which is why the Chrome add-on is necessary as a workaround as we need the laptop speaker to ring for the agents. C

Is anyone else getting emails that look like authentic RingCentral notifications except instead of coming from a notifications@RingCentral email address, they come from your own email address? There are a few of us within my company that are getting these emails that look like they’re from RingCentral alerting us to a voicemail. They contain an attachment. However, when we log into our RingCentral app, there is no such call or voicemail. It is happening daily, and sometimes multiple times a day. RingCentral should look into this ASAP and users be cautious about clicking links or attachments.
