If you're a Google G Suite or Microsoft Office 365 user with a profile picture, it will automatically display in Dialpad along with your name, job title, and Dialpad-associated email address.

Your profile includes public information like your name, photo, job title, and pronouns.

Dialpad numbers

Every Dialpad Connect user is assigned a direct Dialpad number under Your Dialpad Numbers. If your Admin has added a fax line or a Dialpad Meetings account, you'll see those numbers, too.

Why do I have two numbers?

When you sign up for a Dialpad account, we automatically give you a free local Main Line number which cannot be removed. This number is considered your Company's phone number that your callers can call to reach out to any operator assigned to your mainline.

The second number you receive is your direct Dialpad number, which callers would use to reach out to you directly.

Don't like the numbers you were assigned? No problem!—in fact, you'll have the option after you finish the sign-up flow to port in an existing local or toll-free number.

Caller ID

In the Caller ID section, you'll see which number will appear when you place an outbound call.
It is set to your direct number by default, but you may see other options if you're assigned as an operator or agent, or if your admin chose to enable office-wide caller ID settings.  

Language

The Language section lets you change the language of your Dialpad App experience.

Office settings set a user's default language, but it can also be changed for their individual Dialpad account.

If you haven’t set your Personal Working Hours, and it's between 7PM and 8AM, when a teammate writes you a Dialpad message, they’ll see a notification letting them know what time it is for you. 

Note

If the recipient has set their Personal Working Hours, you’ll see a notification letting you know that it is outside of their working hours and that their notifications are paused.

To request a pairing, select + Add a new Assistant and follow the prompts.

In either case, both parties will have to confirm from an emailed notification before the changes take place.

Working location

Use a personal working location to override your office's default E911 address so that First Responders can find you if you dial 911 and you’re not at the office.
To add a working location, select Add location and follow the prompts.

Dialpad lets you save up to 10 locations, so you don’t need to add a new address every time you visit a different office.

Emails and alerts

To enable notifications for specific Contact Centers, select the desired Contact Center from the drop-down menu and check the boxes beside the topics you'd like to be notified for.

My Dialpad Meetings settings

If your Dialpad Meetings account is linked to your Dialpad account, you can adjust your personal Dialpad Meetings settings from your profile.
