Silent monitoring

Silent call monitoring allows you to eavesdrop on a phone conversation. With silent monitoring, you can hear both call participants, but neither of the call participants can hear you.

In order to initiate a silent monitoring session, the corresponding button must be used on the Supervisor View. Once a silent monitoring session has been started, a new workitem will be shown on the UI.

On this work item, the active call details of the agent's call are displayed:

Silent monitoring session

Please note:

  • In a CCX Deployment, it is not possible to silently monitor a direct incoming call to the agent, no matter if the call was received in state Ready or Not Ready.
  • The Barge-In button is only available on silent monitoring calls.

Barge-In

The Barge-In feature allows you to join a call between an agent and a caller. You can only barge in on a call that you are silently monitoring.

BargeIn Conference Call

As a Supervisor, you can drop the agent from the barged in call. In order to do this, click the X Button next to the Party you would like to drop.
