Get Call Contact Info Step
Use the Get Call Contact Info step to access call-specific information and to store values in specified variables.
Note | To support E.164 compliance, Unified CCX allows you to add “+” preceding to an agent extension or a route point directory number. |
Figure describes the properties of the Get Call Contact Info customizer window.

You can use this step to handle a call in a variety of ways depending on the source of the call and other properties associated with the session. For example, you can use this step with a Call Redirect step to transfer a call to another extension, or you can use this step with a Play Prompt step to play a voice prompt.
