An address book is a collection of consumer information like display names, phone numbers, and locations. During an active engagement, the Zoom desktop client will display information from the address book if that customer is a contact in the address book. If the consumer is not in the address book, agents can add a new contact and choose which address book the contact belongs to.

Admins can address book units to organize several address books. For example, you can create a unit for the US which contains all address books in the US.

Zoom Contact Center admins, supervisors, and agents can view address books and contacts using the Zoom desktop client.
