How to Use the Directory

You can contact users registered in your contact center by selecting them from the Directory tab. The directory displays users in your organization grouped by teams. It may also show service queues and some frequently used external numbers.

To view directory contacts, click the Directory tab. The directory will initially list all teams configured in your contact center. Service queues and external numbers also will be organized in folders. To see items of a particular team or folder, click the arrow icon next to its name.

Additionally, you can search for a directory item by typing the contact name or number in the search field that you see above the list of contacts. As you type, only the matching items will remain visible in the directory.

For users registered in your contact center, the directory provides information about their current availability to communicate:

  • For non-agents, presence icons are always shown.
