Question

RingOut calls do not go to RingCentral App.

Hello everyone,

I'm a dev trying to connect our company's RingCentral API to our CRM app. As a stopgap, agents use both our CRM app and the RingCentral App on two tabs. Every agent has their own extension on our RC account.

Right now, when agents click on a customer's phone number on the CRM app, we run a RingOut API POST request using the phone's extension and client #. In C#, it looks like this.

var parameters = new MakeRingOutRequest() {
  to = new MakeRingOutCallerInfoRequestTo() { phoneNumber = toPhone },
  from = new MakeRingOutCallerInfoRequestFrom() { phoneNumber = CompanyPhone + "*" + extension},
  callerId = new MakeRingOutCallerIdInfo() { phoneNumber = CompanyPhone },
  playPrompt = false
};

return await RestClient.Restapi().Account().Extension().RingOut().Post(parameters);

While the RingOut request transmits to landlines, it does not show up in the RingCentral web app. Instead, my agents see a missed call to the client about a minute later.

    Can you make a ring-out call directly from the RC app? Can you try with the user's direct number instead of "mainCompanyNumber" + "ExtensionNumber"?

    I have a similar issue but using the extensions direct number like you advise.

    Did you check the RingOut setting from the RC app settings?

    It turns out that the DID number for the extension did not work but the main number followed by an * and the extension does work. Weird. Not sure why that would be but it is not documented that it works that way.
