Genesys Cloud - Main

We have a customer who receives calls on a customer Queue, if they need to do a warm transfer of that call to an external number they want the Calling Party Name and Calling Party Number of the customer Queue to be presented to the transferred party.  What is showing up is the Caller ID and Caller Name of the Trunk Group assigned for outbound on the site.  What the customer would like is the ability to do a warm transfer and have the ability to transfer on behalf of a queue.  Today they can make an outbound call on behalf of the queue but not a transfer.  Wondering if there is a workaround or am I perhaps missing some permissions?  Thanks.

Hi Martin - could you be able to provide a conversationID example I can look at to see what is being attached to the conversation.  Ideally, I'd like the region, orgID, and an example or two.

If you'd prefer to email me directly - my email is chris.bohlin@genesys.com.

Thanks,
Chris

The issue has not been resolved, but Genesys is having another look at offering this capability. Hopefully, we will something back shortly.

do you use Genesys Cloud BYOC or Premise EDGE?

Genesys Voice or Third party SIP carrier?

I have the same situation, we need to transfer out on consult or blind but we need to do on behalf of a queue to display the correct CLI due to the global reach.  Agents don't have a DDI due to the global calling and routing policies and Telco restrictions, so I am stuck at the moment

Has anyone found a way to do this?

I created an Idea for this capability.  The ability for an agent to transfer a call on behalf of a queue. DIG-I-1002

Here is what I would do:
1. Create a script with transfer buttons or a drop-down/text field for the number to transfer to.  
2. Make an outbound call using a data action and calling /api/v2/conversations/calls and replace outbound caller ID
3. Conference the two interactions using /api/v2/conversations/calls/{conversationId}
4. Disconnect agent from conversation using /api/v2/conversations/calls/{conversationId}/participants/{participantId}/communications/{communicationId} with the agent participant ID

A bit messy, but workable.  You just put them all in a single Custom Action in the script.

As much as I like Cloud, there seems to be lots of workarounds that happen out of the box on other products

Thanks, I will take a look at that

True, there are things where we ask "why is that not in there", but there are a hundred other things that say "boy I wish I had that on my old product".  Out of the box is also a misnomer - there is no box!  All features are based on API's and if there is no API (as in your request).  The nice thing is that there is work for this being planned.  In all these cases, be sure to submit an idea on the AHA site to allow the product to evolve.
