See where callers can reach your AI agent and what is connected today.

Where to find it

Voice › Voice channels

Open this screen
Voice channels with the tiles and the Phone number, SIP trunk, Web voice widget, WhatsApp voice and Telephone (PSTN) cards

Steps

  1. In the sidebar, open Voice › Voice channels.
  2. Read the tiles: Phone numbers, Lines (numbers on a line) and Answered by your agent.
  3. In Phone number, check each number, the line it rings and whether The AI agent answers. Press Route numbers to lines to change that on Phone lines.
  4. In Telephone (PSTN), press Request a number to get a new number (managers).
  5. In WhatsApp voice, a manager can press Notify me.

SettingWhat it doesDefault
Phone numberYour organisation's numbers and the line each rings. CallDesk buys and connects each number; you do not enter carrier credentials.—
SIP trunkBringing your own carrier is not offered for organisations; calls go through the carrier CallDesk connects.—
Web voice widgetA talk-to-agent button for your website is not offered, so there is no snippet.—
WhatsApp voiceNot offered in CallDesk; managers can join the waitlist.—
Telephone (PSTN)Request a number for your organisation; no carrier account is needed.—

Troubleshooting

A number shows Not on a line yet.

Press Route numbers to lines and put the number on a phone line.

A number shows a reason instead of The AI agent answers.

Fix what it names on Phone lines, for example link an agent or switch the line on.

Tips

  • A yellow note on the Phone number card names anything still missing in the phone connection; an administrator finishes it on Phone numbers.

Good to know

  • Everyone can read this page; only managers see Request a number and Notify me.
