Logging a call

Calls can be logged to Copper leads or Copper people and can be logged as a new object, or logged to an existing object.

  • Creating a new object

When you receive an incoming call that has no contact match, it's time to create a new object (either a person or lead).

  1. Select Create Lead 

  2. Enter the contact name, subject, and call description

  3. Select Save

That's it, it's that easy! The lead is now created within Copper and the call is logged.

  • Logging a call to an existing object

When you receive a call from a known contact (via a contact search in Dialpad and Copper), all you need to do is add a subject and description – the contact details will auto-populate based on your records. 

  1. Enter the subject and description

  2. Select Log Call

Your call will now appear in your Copper call logs (and will be listed in Dialpad, too), with links to the call summary and recordings.

Multiple contact matches

In the event that you receive a call and find that you have multiple contact matches, our Copper integration allows you to select the correct one. 

  1. Select the correct contact

Frequently asked questions

What does 'wrong match' do?

If there are multiple contacts with the same name or number, we list all records so that you can associate the correct lead/contact.

Currently, we are not supporting search functionality. 

Can I create an object when the call is not active?

No, the call has to be active in order to create an object.

I received app_call_event not found error!

Sometimes, even if there is a lead created, Copper will display 0 matches found and throw an "App_call_event not found" or "unknown error" occurred. If that happens, please contact Customer Care.

Are SMS or screenpop supported?

Not at this time, but stay tuned!

What are the accepted number formats?

Dialpad stores numbers in +E164 format and may fail to discover a match if Copper leads or people are created in a different format.

Can I log missed calls as people or leads?

Missed call logging is not supported.

Why does Copper keep showing me log notes?

Notes taken during your call will be concatenated and saved as one log note. 

If you do not wish to log the call, simply Cancel it.

What should I do if I find duplicates in the CRM system?

There are several scenarios where the system will create a duplicate person, company, or lead record. Easily consolidate duplicate records by merging them within Copper.

Note

Merging multiple records is final and cannot be undone.

What happens if I didn't create a Dialpad contact, but want to create an object?

There is no requirement to create a Dialpad contact to match the contact in Copper. We use the phone number to search Copper. 

What should I do if the sidebar widget is stuck in a loading state? 

If the sidebar is stuck in a loading state, try disabling the following flag in Chrome: chrome://flags/#third-party-storage-partitioning. Enter this in your browser address bar, then reconnect.

If the issue continues, or if you aren't using Chrome, please contact Customer Care.
