RingCentral

Updated 1 month ago by Romain Lapeyre

You can use Zapier to create tickets in Gorgias when a customer calls you on RingCentral. We recommend setting up 3 zaps for different trigger events:

  • When a call has ended
  • When a call is missed
  • When there's a new voicemail
Please note, this integration is available to all customers but will only be supported for Advanced and Enterprise plan customers. While any plan can set up the integration following the instructions,  due to the manual work it requires on our end, if you are on the Basic or Pro plan we will not be able to provide support in setting it up or fixing any issues with it should they arise.
