To deactivate the MS Teams Telephony integration, uninstall MS Teams in the Telephony Marketplace.

Incoming calls

Receive incoming call notifications:

Receive notifications on your screen for incoming calls so you can see who is calling you. By having access to your Contacts history and information through these notifications, you'll be better equipped to answer the call. Zia can suggest the best time to follow up with customers via call or email based on their interaction patterns. To learn more about, please refer to Best Time to Contact Customers.

Set automations for unknown callers:

You can also automate the conversion of unknown callers to new records in a module by setting up Workflow Rules for the Calls module. To learn more, refer to Workflow for Calls.

Note:

1. Calls placed directly from your MS Teams app will be logged in your CRM with a slight delay.
   
2. Call details that were entered before the integration was disabled remain intact.
3. By uninstalling MS Teams under Telephony, you will no longer be able to make calls in Zoho CRM via MS Teams
   
4. Once uninstalled by the Administrator, the integration will be disabled for all the users who were given access to dial through MS Teams.
