How to view Zoom Contact Center logs

Example to understand the new call log

  1. A call is initiated from the Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) to an Auto-Receptionist (AR).
  2. The caller interacts with the Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system by entering "1" which directs the call to a Call Queue (CQ).
  3. An agent in the CQ responds to the phone call.
  4. An account admin filters the data based on the From and To parameters to view the information that can be filtered by week or month.
  5. The admin then searches for a specific phone number and filters for inbound calls, call queues, and answered calls to further refine the data.
    The call summary shows the call result as Answered.
  6. The admin clicks on Call Path to see the following details:
    • The Call ID allows the admin to link the call to the voicemail and recording.
    • The IVR input is 1 and the call is forwarded to a CQ.
    • The CQ has Auto Call Recording enabled.
    • Ring to a member and the member answered the call with a macOS client.
    • The Talking Time is 25 seconds and the call ends.
  7. Using the Call ID - 7311825463708870121, the admin can now search the recording log.
  8. The recording shows the PSTN call that is 25 seconds long and the owner is the corresponding queue, which aligns with the call log.
