Monitor agent activity

Public Beta

Teams in Flex is currently available as a limited Public Beta product and the information contained in this document is subject to change. This means that some features are not yet implemented and others may be changed before the product is declared as Generally Available. Public Beta products are not covered by an SLA.

The Teams view provides a real-time view of contact center agents' activity. With this information, supervisors can monitor individual tasks for training and problem-solving in the contact center. This tool helps supervisors ensure that agents' interactions with customers meet quality standards.

The supervisor can use the Teams View filter to filter agents by teams. The teams owned by the supervisor appear under the Teams tab in the Teams View filter. For more details, see Advanced Team View Filters.

Considerations

considerations page anchor
  • When configuring Teams view, make sure to set your Teams view filters so that the list of agents is less than 200.
  • The TaskQueue list may not include all TaskQueues if the TaskQueue has not been used for 30 days or more. Reset the expiration on your TaskQueue by routing an inbound task to the Queue. Each additional task and any transfers will reset the expiration time to 30 days.
  • If an admin changes or updates a team owner in Console, make sure to refresh Flex UI to reflect the updated teams on Flex UI Teams page.
  • Once you add a user to a team or move them to another team, the user needs to complete an activity in Flex UI for their name to appear on the Flex UI Teams page. For example, a user can update their availability status or process an incoming or outgoing request.
  • If a supervisor doesn't own any teams, they can still see all users on the Teams page, but they won't see a user's team in the Team column. The supervisor won't be authorized to monitor agent calls or chats or update agents' activity status or skills.

Warning

The Teams page uses the worker attribute team_sid. If you have any custom implementations in Flex, do not use the same team_sid worker attribute.


Call monitoring allows supervisors and admins to listen to any call in real-time. To listen to a live call:

  1. Click the voice call task in the Agents list.
  2. Click the Call Monitoring button. A persistent bar (LiveCommsBar(link takes you to an external page)) indicating active call monitoring appears, and audio from the call starts playing.

To stop call monitoring, click Call Monitoring again or use the Stop Monitoring action in the LiveCommsBar.


Chat monitoring allows supervisors and admins to view messages in any active conversation. The conversations will update in real-time as your agents continue their chats.

To start monitoring a conversation, click the messaging task.

Supervisors are only able to view messages. Sending messages is not active when monitoring a messaging task.
