## Outbound call
How to make an outbound call from Salesforce see [Dial within Salesforce](docId:5ysEhyNu56RlL1AzqtbWt)
After clicking on the phone number, the Microsoft Teams toast notification appears. **You must click on the call icon in the Microsoft Teams App to start the call.**

After that, the Mirage MSTeams Bot starts the outbound call. While the call is ringing, the Mirage MSTeams Bot icon appears.
Once the other party answers the call, the Mirage MSTeams Bot and the called ID will be shown.
### Call Controls
The following options to control the call are available in
**Salesforce**
•Put the call on hold in Salesforce by clicking on the orange :FontAwesome[]{icon="fa-solid fa-phone"} button and resume from hold with the green :FontAwesome[]{icon="fa-solid fa-phone"} button
•Blind Transfer :FontAwesome[]{icon="fa-solid fa-location-arrow"}
•End the call with the red :FontAwesome[]{icon="fa-solid fa-phone"} button
**Microsoft Teams App**
•End the call
•Invite other callers to the call, e.g., another MS Teams user using the 👥 icon
•Call another Microsoft Teams user. The original call (landline call) will be put on hold. This function can also be used to briefly **hold a consultation** and then, if necessary, to connect further with Blind Transfer.
### Presence State
An outbound call is **not** possible if the Microsoft Teams presence state is **Do Not Disturb** or **Presenting**. The icon is ⛔️

•Another incoming call to your **direct extension** is signaled when you are on a call. Only if the presence state is **Do Not Disturb** or **Presenting**, no inbound call comes in.
•Presence states are synchronized bidirectional (Salesforce to Microsoft Teams and Microsoft Teams to Salesforce). There is a delay between 3 to 7 seconds until the presence state update is shown either in the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone or MS Teams App.
