We are currently evaluating how to leverage the ConnectWise PSA with RingCentral for Voice. We want to be able to click-to-call out of ConnectWise and integrate our RingCentral DID’s, possibly automate some of the call-logging as well. Is this possible to do with ConnectWise open API? ConnectWise pointed me in the direction of RingCentral integrations directly.

Based on my experience you can do click to dials etc with the web-based version of the PSA and the soft phone on.  But there is not a good way to automate the call logging as there is with some other platforms. This has been on my wish list as a RC partner for a while, I’m looking at the possibility of developing something internal, but RC also has tight controls on how many API calls can be made at any give time.  I was trying to do a dashboard integration with Real Time Presence information from RC into a Dashboarding tool. I’m not going to say which one, but I’ve used a couple external to RC and you can’t poll the API’s frequently enough for real time activity to be worth it.  Just my nickles worth.

@ellie-mansour You might also consider using the RingCentral App Connect framework. This integration framework is designed around this type of integration design pattern. The framework is described in detail here:

And you can ask questions of the community here:

In summary though:

  • Customers install a Chrome extension created and maintained by RingCentral
  • Developers provide an adapter that can be insalled by customers into the Chrome extension
  • The adapter’s job is to perform customer/contact look ups, log calls and SMS, and a few other functions

Developers like it because:

  • Developers do not need to build a UI - just focus on a server bridge to the connected system
  • Adapters take about 1-2 weeks to build
  • The framework is constantly being enhanced independently by RingCentral adding more and more capabilities to make customers happy
