Temporarily Closing a Zendesk Talk Line
Is it possible to temporarily close a Zendesk Talk line?
Currently, there is no direct way to temporarily close a Zendesk Talk line. However, you can create a specific IVR to redirect customers to voicemail and manually enable it when the line is closed. This workaround requires daily manual activation. For more information on setting up IVR, refer to Zendesk's article on routing incoming calls with IVR.
