Making Outbound Calls from Zendesk Talk Console
How can I make an outbound call from the Zendesk Talk console?
To make an outbound call from the Zendesk Talk console, you need to access the Talk icon in the Support toolbar. From there, click the dial pad icon to enter the phone number you wish to call. The default number used will be the last one you used, unless your browser cache has been cleared, in which case it resets to the account's default number.
You can choose a different phone line by selecting from the outbound call number drop-down. If you have multiple lines, you can filter them by typing in the dropdown. Once you've selected the desired line and entered the phone number, click 'Call' to initiate the call. If you're using your own phone, Talk will first call your number before connecting to the requester. For more details, check the originalZendesk article.
