Provide Access to the Contact Control Panel
Agents use the Amazon Connect Contact Control Panel (CCP) to communicate with contacts. But before agents can access to the CCP and handle contacts, there are a few things you need to do:
-
Add agents to your instance. This creates a user name and password for them to log into the CCP.
-
Assign them the "Agent" security profile. This grants them permissions to access the CCP.
-
Give them their user name, password, and a link to the CCP so they can log in. The CCP is a website. The URL to your CCP is:
-
https://name of your instance.awsapps.com/connect/ccp-v2/
-
We recommend telling agents to bookmark the URL to the CCP so they can access it easily.
As the admin, you can access the CCP by clicking on the phone icon in the upper right corner of Amazon Connect.
For information about using the CCP, see Using the CCP (the Agent UI).
Grant Microphone Access in Chrome, Firefox, or Edge
If agents experience problems with their microphone, they may need to grant microphone access in their browser. Choose one of the following articles to get the steps appropriate for your browser:

A change introduced in Google Chrome version 64 may result in issues with
receiving calls if you are using an embedded Contact Control Panel (CCP) softphone
using the Amazon Connect Streams library. If you are experiencing issues with your
microphone
when using Chrome version 64, you can resolve the issue by building and deploying
the latest version of the Amazon Connect Streams API
You can also resolve the issue by using Firefox as your browser.
