Live Call Routing
Live Call Routing empowers your organization to route incoming calls directly to on-call responders, ensuring timely and efficient handling of incidents.
Set up Call routing in Zenduty with Plivo:
In Plivo:
- Create a Plivo account
- Go to the Plivo website. (Sign up for an account if you don't have one already)
- Purchase a phone number.
- Once logged in, navigate to the phone numbers section.
- Purchase a phone number that you will use for call routing.
- Obtain Auth ID and Auth Token:
- In your Plivo dashboard, locate your Auth ID and Auth Token. These are typically found in your account settings or on the dashboard homepage.
- Copy the Auth ID and Auth Token.
In Zenduty:
- Log in to your Zenduty account as an Admin/Owner.
- Navigate to the 'Accounts' section.
- Go to 'Call Routing' under the 'Connections' tab.
- To configure call routing, paste the copied Plivo Auth ID and Auth Token into the respective fields in your Zenduty call routing configuration.
- Enter the purchased phone number.
- Select the services you wish to include (maximum of 10 services).
- Set the timeout duration in seconds (e.g., 30 seconds).
- Choose the condition under which an incident is created (e.g., "no answer", "always", "never").
- Save your Settings.
Note: A webhook URL will be displayed after saving your configuration. Please keep it safe for future use.
In Plivo:
- In your Plivo dashboard, navigate to the voice settings from the sidebar menu.
- In another sidebar panel, select Applications -> XML Application and Add a new application.
- Fill in all the required details.
- Set the primary answer URL to the webhook URL you saved in the previous step.
- Select the method as 'GET' and save the application.
Once these steps are completed, calls will be routed to the on-call users based on the service configuration, and incidents will be created based on your chosen conditions if no one answers the call.
