How do I configure permissions for accessing call recordings and related content?

To configure Call Recording permissions for a user, you will need to edit the user's linked account permissions in User Access. For information about editing a user's feature permissions, see Configuring admin and supervisor feature permissions.

To give a user access to recordings of calls made to a specific line, add that line to the Line permissions section. To remove a user's access to recordings of calls made to a specific line, remove that line from the Line permissions section.

In the Recording Archive section within Full Permission List, the following permissions appear. To enable a permission, select yes.

PermissionDescriptionDefault values
Supervisor (Normal) userAdmin (Nominee) user
View inbound interaction content

Controls whether a user can listen to inbound interaction content (such as call recordings, transcripts, and so on).

NoYes
View outbound interaction contentControls whether a user can listen to outbound interaction content (such as call recordings, transcripts, and so on).NoYes
Access groups of users' content (overrides line permissions)

Controls whether a supervisor can see interaction content based on the groups they manage. If an interaction was handled by an agent within those groups, the supervisor has access to view content related to that interaction.

Deleted agents' recordings

When agents are deleted, their associations with groups are also deleted. Therefore supervisors will no longer have access to deleted agents' recordings based solely on their permission to their groups.

To ensure supervisors can see deleted agents' recordings, do not rely on group-based access.

NoNo
View screen recordings

Controls a user's access to the screen recording player.

View Screen Recordings is only available if screen recordings are enabled for your account.

NoNo
Delete interaction content

Controls whether a user can delete interaction content (such as call recordings, transcripts, and so on).

If you set Delete Interaction Content to yes, the user can only delete content that they have access to.

Deleting a call recording deletes an associated screen recording even if the user doesn't have access to view screen recordings.

NoNo

Agent users

By default, agent users do not have access to Interaction Content (such as call recordings, transcripts, and so on). If enabled for your account, agents may be able to access interaction content, either all content in your account or just their own content.

Conversation Analyzer

If Conversation Analyzer is enabled for your account, users can access transcripts and categorization results for the call recordings they have access to. If the user is able to delete call content, they will delete transcripts and categorization results for any recordings they delete. For information about Conversation Analyzer, see Conversation Analyzer.

How do I enable interaction content annotation for my account?

To display comments about interaction content in the call recording player, you must switch on the Interaction Player - enable call recording comments feature for your account in Account Feature Control in the Configuration (Account Settings) area of Vonage Contact Center.

For information about switching on features for your account, see Controlling features for your account.

To hide audio recording comments, switch off the Interaction Player - enable call recording comments feature.

How do I hide the download button for non-admin users?

To prevent users from downloading interaction content using the download button, you must hide the download button in the interaction player. To do do, switch on the Interaction Player - Hide content download buttons for non-admins feature for your a count in Account Feature Control in the Configuration (Account Settings) area of Vonage Contact Center.

For information about switching on features for your account, see Controlling features for your account.

To show the download button for all users who can use the interaction content player, switch off the Interaction Player - Hide content download buttons for non-admins feature.

How do I control individual user’s access to interaction content?

In the User Access area of Vonage Contact Center admin portal, you can control what content users can access and what tasks they can perform on this content. To do so, you must edit their permissions in the applicable linked account. For information about editing linked account permissions, see Configuring admin and supervisor feature permissions.

View outbound interaction content

To enable a supervisor or admin user to view outbound interaction content, go to Interaction Content in the Full permissions list section. Select yes in the View outbound interaction content list. Click Save to save your changes.

The View outbound interaction content permission enables the supervisor or admin user to view all outbound interaction content, regardless of which lines they have access to. For information about configuring access to inbound interaction content, see Line Permissions in Configuring individual users.

Access groups of users' content (overrides line permissions)

The Access groups of users' content (overrides line permissions) permission enables a supervisor to see interaction content based on the groups they manage. If an interaction was handled by an agent within those groups, the supervisor has access to see content related to that interaction. Go to Interaction Content in the Full permissions list section and set this permission to yes to ignore any Line Permissions settings defined for supervisor.

Example

In this example, Access groups of users' content (overrides line permissions) is set to yes for a supervisor and that supervisor manages two groups:

  • Group A: contains Agent A, Agent B
  • Group B: contains Agent C, Agent D

The supervisor can see only interaction content related to interactions that involved Agent AAgent BAgent C, or Agent D.

This permission works with View outbound interaction content and View inbound interaction content permissions. You can only allow supervisor to see inbound interaction content limited to groups he can manage.

For information about setting up groups, see Configuring groups.

When permission is set to no, search results are limited by line permissions.

View screen recordings

To enable a supervisor or admin user to view screen recordings, go to Interaction Content in the Full permissions list section. Select yes in the View Screen Recordings list. Click Save to save your changes.

Delete interaction content

Add or delete interaction content comments

Select yes in the Add comments list to enable the user to add comments. Select yes in the Delete comments list to enable the user to delete comments. Click Save to save your changes.
