How callbacks work
When a caller says they'd like to be called back, the AI agent:
- Asks for their name and phone number
- Asks for a preferred time (if mentioned)
- Saves a callback request in your admin app
Viewing callback requests
Go to Conversations on your desk and select the Needs action filter. There is no separate Callbacks page - callback requests appear here alongside anything else that needs your attention, showing: - Caller name and number - Preferred time (if provided) - Time the request was made
Managing requests
- Mark as called: when you've completed the callback, mark it done
- Cancel: if the callback is no longer needed
- Add notes: record anything relevant about the call
One place for follow-ups
Callback requests and voicemail messages both surface under the Needs action filter in Conversations, so you have one place to manage follow-ups.
