Problem using the CCP: Agents can't make an outbound call

The top reason most agents can't make outbound calls from the CCP is because their instance of Amazon Connect has not been set up to make outbound calls.

To enable agents to make outbound calls
  1. Open the Amazon Connect console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/connect/.

  2. On the instances page, choose the instance alias. The instance alias is also your instance name, which appears in your Amazon Connect URL. The following image shows the Amazon Connect virtual contact center instances page, with a box around the instance alias.

  3. In the navigation pane, choose Telephony.

  4. To enable outbound calling from your contact center, choose I want to make outbound calls with Amazon Connect.

  5. Choose Save.
