Configure Caller ID for Your Contact Center

Make it easier for your reps to identify callers. When a customer dials in, use the caller phone number to create an End User record so that reps always know who’s calling, even for abandoned or missed calls. You can create or reuse the same End User record regardless of which number the caller dialed.

  1. Match callers to End User records. You can later use Flow Builder to link the End User record to a Contact.
    1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Amazon Setup or Parter Telephony Setup, depending on your telephony provider, and then select Amazon Setup or Partner Telephony Setup.
    2. Turn on Match Callers to End User Records
  2. Choose whether to override your phone channel number settings. When a caller dials in, an End User record is created or reused based only on the number they called from (and not the number dialed). Outbound calls aren’t affected and use the default phone channel.
    Match Callers to End User Records toggle

After a rep identifies the caller and associates the End User record with a contact or account, all future calls from that number are associated with that contact or account.

Note
Note Channel-object linking and match callers to End User records don’t work together. You can only use one or the other.
