Step-by-Step Instructions
- Before You Begin [0:00]
- Make sure you have an admin account on RingCentral
- Have your RingCentral username and password ready, or be already logged in
- Navigate to RingCentral Settings in Sage Care [0:32]
- In Sage Care, go to Settings → Calls → RingCentral
- Click Connect RingCentral
- Authorize Sage Care [0:46]
- If prompted, select Continue as [your name] to proceed with your logged-in RingCentral account
- Review the permissions — Sage Care will only read data from RingCentral, never write
- Click Authorize to complete the connection
- Confirm the Integration [1:07]
- After authorizing, you should see your organization's RingCentral account ID displayed
- This confirms the integration is active
- How Blind Transfers Work [1:17]
- When a call comes in to RingCentral and is blind transferred to a Sage Care number, the original caller's ID (e.g., Jane Doe) appears in Sage Care
- After the call ends, the callback number will be the original caller's number — not the RingCentral number
- How Warm Transfers Work [2:31]
- During a warm transfer, the call initially shows the RingCentral number as the caller ID — this is expected due to RingCentral platform limitations
- Once the transfer completes and the call ends, Sage Care retroactively updates the record to show the original caller (e.g., Jane Doe)
- All AI actions (call summary, email draft, etc.) run against the correct caller after the call ends
