What should I do if click to call / web call is not working?
⚡ Quick answer
- Click-to-Call: You click a number in the Web Panel; MyOperator first calls your agent device/softphone, then bridges the customer.
- Web Call: The call happens in your browser (uses your mic/speakers).
Quick self-check (60 seconds)
- Account and credits: No dues; enough outbound credits.
- Number format: Use E.164 (e.g.,
+91XXXXXXXXXX). - Availability: You are Logged in and Available in the Web Panel.
- Browser: Latest Chrome/Edge/Firefox; disable VPN/proxy for the test.
- Permissions (Web Call): Mic allowed; no tab muted; pop-ups allowed for the site.
Expected when fixed: You see a “Call initiated” banner, your device/browser rings, and a new Call Log entry appears.
Prerequisites
- Role permission to place outbound calls.
- Stable internet (avoid captive/public Wi-Fi).
- IT allows access to MyOperator services (see Network checklist below).
- A registered/verified agent device for Click-to-Call if your setup uses a phone bridge.
Step-by-step fixes
A) Click-to-Call not working
- Confirm your agent device rings first
- If it doesn’t ring, check Availability and your registered number/softphone.
- Check dues/credits
- Clear dues; top up credits if outbound is blocked.
- Validate destination number
- Use E.164 format; remove spaces/extra zeros.
- Try another destination
- Rules may block certain ranges; test with a known-good mobile.
- Disable VPN / restrictive firewall
- Some networks block signalling; retry on a mobile hotspot.
- Review the caller ID policy
- If masking or CLI is enforced, ensure the presented number is allowed.
- Retry from another browser profile
- Rules, extensions, or cache can interfere.
Success indicator: Your device rings → answer → customer rings → connected. Call Log shows Bridged.
B) Web Call not working (browser call)
- Allow microphone
- When prompted, click Allow. If blocked:
Site settings → Microphone → Allow.
- Test audio devices
- Plug in headset; choose the correct Input/Output in OS/browser.
- Close conflicting apps
- End meetings/softphones using the mic (Meet, Zoom, Teams).
- Refresh and try Incognito/Private
- Bypasses extensions and cached state.
- Clear cache and cookies for the site
- Then sign in and retry.
- Disable VPN/proxy
- Can break real-time media paths.
- Network checklist (for IT)
- Allow your MyOperator domains/services and real-time media over secure ports used by WebRTC.
- If your org filters traffic, whitelist vendor domains and secure WebSocket/HTTPS; allow outbound UDP for media.
- Refer to your MyOperator Network Requirements article for exact domains/ports.
Success indicator: “Call initiated” banner, browser ringing UI, timer starts, two-way audio.
