OneCloud Professional Contact Center - Adding Agents / Editing Agent Settings
👥 Adding Agents & Editing Agent Settings
This section covers how to add agents to a queue and configure individual agent settings for optimal call flow and performance tracking. Locate the queue you wish to edit agent membership and click the edit agents icon.
✏️ Edit Agent Icon
-
Click the pencil icon to open and edit an agent's settings.
-
Use this to add a new agent or modify existing agent details.
➕ Add Agent
-
Scroll to the bottom and click "Add Agent".
-
In the first Drop Down Menu, you'll be prompted to choose between adding by User or Phone.
✅ Best Practice:Selecting adding agents by Phone. This ensures calls are delivered to a specific device instead of multiple endpoints.⚠️ Adding by User can cause confusion if the agent has multiple devices such as the Mobile App, Connect App or Native Integration.
