Identifying Callers with Zendesk Talk Embedded Voice

Learn why calls appear as 'Caller unknown' in Zendesk Talk Embedded Voice and future plans for caller identification.

Can I identify callers using Zendesk Talk Embedded Voice?

Currently, calls made through Zendesk Talk Embedded Voice appear as 'Caller unknown' on the agent's console. This is because the call button does not associate the call with the caller's end-user profile, even if they are signed in.

Zendesk is working on a solution to allow integrators to pass in the user identity of the caller if available. Keep an eye on Zendesk's forums for updates on this feature. For more details, visit theoriginal link.
