Adding a CTI Link
Preparing CTI Link configuration
Before starting the Pega Call™ CTI Link configuration, you must ensure that the CTI environment is ready. Use the following steps to plan for the telephony integration.
- Determine which telephony vendor to use.
- Review the Pega Call CTI Implementation materials to understand the configuration for your vendor.
- Share the information related to the way Pega Call gets connected to the CTI environment with the telephony team.
- The telephony team must configure the CTI environment to allow Pega Call to connect and share the configuration details with the Pega Call implementation team.
- Ensure that a telephony team resource is available to work with the Pega Call implementation team during the configuration.

In the Agent State Options section, use the settings to control the behavior when the agent changes the state.
In the Call Options section, use the settings to control the options and fields that are displayed on the softphone.
