How to access Zoom Contact Center user settings
Admins can change users settings after adding them to Contact Center. Most of these settings are also available while adding users to Contact Center.
- Sign in to the Zoom web portal.
- In the navigation menu, click Contact Center Management then Users.
- Click the display name of the user you want to edit.
You can access or customize the following settings:
Display name section
You can change this settings at the top of the settings page.
- Display name: Click Edit to change the contact center user's display name. This display name is shown to consumers for active engagements where the user's display name is shown to consumers (video and chat engagements). It's also shown to other agents and supervisors that join an active video or chat engagement that has the user. By default, the user's display name is set to their first name.
Note: The contact center display name is separate from the user's Zoom profile display name.
General section
- Profile Picture: Determine what profile picture is shown to contact center consumers and other users, then click Save.
- Use name initials: Display the user's initials as their profile picture.
- Use personal profile picture: Use the user's Zoom profile picture as their Zoom Contact Center profile picture.
- Use a new photo: Use a separate profile picture from the user's Zoom profile picture. After selecting this option, hover over the generic profile picture and click the pencil icon to change the picture. Select an image from your computer, then click Next. Click and drag the crop area to determine which part of the image is shown. You can also click and drag the slider below the image to change the zoom level. Click Save when you're done cropping.
- Role: Displays the user’s role. Click the drop-down menu to change the user’s role. Default roles are displayed first, followed by custom roles.
Note: If you're an admin changing your own user settings, you can only change your role to one that has the User Management view and edit privilege. This is to prevent admins from accidentally losing access to contact center user management. - Package: The Zoom Contact Center package assigned to the user.
- Zoom Contact Center Essentials
- Zoom Contact Center Premium (To assign package to users, you will need to reach out to the Sales team to purchase additional packages)
- Zoom Contact Center Elite
Note: If the packages selected are Zoom Contact Center Essentials or Zoom Contact Center Premium for a user, then AI Expert Assist can be assigned to that user as an add-on (if purchased). AI Expert Assist is already included for Zoom Contact Center Elite package.
- Add-ons: This is visible if the customer has purchased add-ons such as AI Expert Assist.
- Team: To assign a team, click Edit and select a team. Check the box to assign the user as a supervisor. If left unchecked, the user will be assigned as an agent by default.
- Client Integration: Click the drop-down to select from the available client integrations for Contact Center.

Channel Settings section
- Engagement Capacity: The system will calculate capacity for engagements based on the weight configuration of active and inactive engagements. The inactive weights are set in your account preferences.
- Click the Voice and Video toggle to allow a concurrent voice or video call to be routed with other channels. Users can only have one voice or video call at any time. When enabled, you can set the load threshold for calls for both Email and Messaging.
- Email: Set the maximum concurrent email engagements. This weight is used to determine the maximum number of active email engagements that agents can handle at once.
- Messaging: Set the maximum concurrent messaging engagements. This weight is used to determine the maximum number of active messaging engagements that agents can handle at once.
Engagement weight represents the proportion of a single agent slot that an engagement is currently occupying. For example, when a web chat, SMS, or email is first assigned to an agent, its weight is 1.0 (system-driven), meaning it occupies the entire slot. If the agent sends a message and the end-user doesn’t respond for a long period, or if an agent sends an email and marks the engagement as awaiting reply, the engagement is considered inactive. The now inactive engagement can be assigned a lower weight, for example, 0.5 of a slot, because it doesn’t occupy as much of the agent’s attention/time and therefore the agent could have some of their capacity opened up.
