Automatic call recording overview

DialLink allows you to automatically record all inbound and outbound calls. This functionality can be enabled or disabled based on the following entities:

  • Desk phones

  • Auto receptionist

  • Ring groups

  • Call queues

Automatic call recording cannot be enabled based on a phone number entity, while this can be achieved, it needs to be done through one of the entities listed above.
