Colour Coding For the Contacts List
Note: This feature requires integration with the Pitcher development team. Please work with your Pitcher support executive to get this enabled.
The renderPinImagesOnContactsList
parameter, in conjunction with the contactPinColors
parameter, allows you to set different pin colours for contacts in the contacts list.
Example:
renderPinImagesOnContactsList: true
"contactPinColors": {
"attr": "segment__c",
"values": [
{
"value": "A1",
"color": "red"
},
{
"value": "A2",
"color": "green"
}
]
},
Search and Select Content
Choose Contents to add specific content to show during this call. Content could be automatically added based on CRM info criteria like Type, Segmentation, etc. It is possible to add specific content for each contact, selecting the contact first.
Any material in this list may be selected as it has been approved to be shown to contacts from this account
