Callback Offer Does Not Ring the Agent Phone

Updated: 07/05/2024

Symptom

Callbacks offered to 8x8 Contact Center agents do not ring the agent's workplace phone. For example, when a Callback is offered to an agent, the 8x8 Agent Workspace displays the Start button but does not ring the Agent's workplace phone.
