Own Login ID to connect to PBX

Normally, there is no own login step required for the phone system as the default will be the Salesforce user name to match an extension with the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone. There are 5 situations where you need an own Login ID

•Using the GoConnect server

•Using the Mirage uaCSTA Cloud Connect

•A users works every day on a different desk with a different phone but he wants to keep his personal extension (hotdesk functionality of a phone)

•If multiple users sign into Salesforce with the same name (e.g. [email protected]) you have to use an own ID

•Increase security when using CTI Data Connector - TAPI Link or CTI Data Connector - Skype for Business Link . Instead of using the Salesforce username you use an ID which is known only to you

This ID must be unique. The Login ID may not have spaces or special characters like @ or -

For security reasons a 20 digit ID is recommended which is known only to you. Generate ID (external Web service)

This automatic generated ID consists of numbers and uppercase characters and works with all connectors.

Enable use of own ID

To use this feature, you have to enable the option: Log in using your own Login ID in the call center configuration.

Configure Login ID

The Login ID has to be configured in the phone system or in a connector

•GoConnect Server

•Desk Phone - Mirage uaCSTA Cloud Connect

If a user always works with the same phone extension then his personal Login ID can be saved in the user record. Once this is done he will no longer require to type in his Login ID in the CTI Data Connector SoftPhone. The option will also no longer be available.

Every user can now save is personal ID in the field: CTI Data Connector Login ID.
