Managing address books and contacts in Zoom App
An address book is a collection of information that describes the location of a consumer as well as the display name, telephone number, and address. A Zoom desktop client displays information from the address book when the customer is a contact in the address book during the course of an active engagement, as long as that customer is a contact in the address book. When a consumer is not already in the address book, agents have the option of adding a new contact and selecting which address book the contact should be included in. The address book can also be organized into units in order to make it easier for you to find information.
