General release

This change will go live on May 6, 2024.

Early release

If you have worked with Vonage to enable this change before May 6, 2024, to migrate to the new login flow, perform the following steps:

  1. Locate your Vonage Contact Center (VCC) account name in the VCC admin portal. For information about locating your account name, see Account in Vonage Contact Center Admin Portal user interface.
  2. Wherever you have embedded ContactPad as an iframe, update the login URL to include your account name:

    For example, for a VCC account with the name LoremCo in the USA region, updated the login URL to https://nam.newvoicemedia.com/CallCentre/AgentInterface?account=LoremCo&newlogin=true.

The steps above are only required before May 6, 2024. After this date, the new login flow will be enabled for all logins by default.

Configuration for Vonage Contact Center in Salesforce
