Contact Center roles and permissions

Choose what permissions you want various contact center roles to have.

Before you begin: You must be set up as a user and be assigned the admin role.

Roles

Assign your users a role within call queues, inbox queues, and campaigns.

  • GoTo Contact Admin: Contact admins set up and participate in the deployment of a Contact Center and manage daily operations. The Contact Admin role can assign CC license to PBX users, can assign users to queues as Agents and/or Supervisors, and can access Contact Center analytics. Contact Admins can also configure queues. See Add Contact Center admins.
  • Supervisor: Supervisors manage agents and queues from the GoTo Connect application. Supervisors will monitor logged in users and active queues. The Supervisor role can listen, whisper and barge into live calls and see historical reports for queues and agents. Supervisors can also access Contact Center analytics.
  • Agent: Agents serve callers through the queues or ring groups to which they are assigned. Agents can also accept direct inbound calls or make outbound calls.

Permissions

Choose and configure permissions per role rather than per user.

  1. Sign in to the desktop or web app.
  2. From Contact Center > Admin > General settings, select Permissions.
  3. Expand the sections below to learn about your options.

Organization

  1. From Organization, choose if you want to allow agents to log in to unassigned queues.

    Result: When enabled, agents and users cannot log in to unassigned queues via *13 or the agent dashboard, a supervisor would need to temporarily log them in. If users want to use the agent dashboard, they'll need to be assigned the agent role.

  2. Select Save.
Results: Any users currently logged in to an unassigned queue will maintain access to those queue(s) when this setting is changed, unless they log out or a supervisor logs them out.

Supervisor

From Supervisor, choose which permissions you want users with the Supervisor role to have:
Setting Description
Access to Contact Center Configuration Portal Allows supervisors access to the Configuration Center portal in the app. The permissions tab is hidden for supervisors.
Limit access to assigned call queues Enabled by default. If unchecked, supervisors can access all call queues regardless if they are assigned to the queue.

Manage pause reasons Allows supervisors to edit the pause reasons under General Settings.
View skills and skills assignment of agents Allows supervisors to view the skills under General Settings.
Manage skills and skills assignment of agents Allows supervisors to manage the skills under General Settings.

Agent

From Agent, choose which permissions you want users with the Agent role to have:
Setting Description
Manage pre-recorded messages Allows agents to access and edit pre-recorded audio messages in their agent dashboard.
Manage public pre-written messages Allows agents to access and edit pre-written text messages in their agent dashboard.
Create custom tags Allows agents to create and use tags in their chat conversations.
