This application allows a delegated administrator to manage the active agents for a Microsoft Teams Call Queue in real-time and/or through a defined shift schedule.
(https://youtu.be/KQBKjXQ8_mY)
The Teams Admin Center (TAC) and PowerShell are the two admin interfaces to manage Call Queues. While both allow for an admin to full managability a Call Queue, this application has been developed to fill the following gaps:
This application provides the following capability:
This application works by manipulating the list of named agents in a Call Queue. This application does NOT support agents defined as part of a group or a Team channel. Since this application leverages named agents, the number of agents that can be active in the queue at the same time is limited to 20. The number of agents that could be potentially added to the queue can be much greater.
The people picker presented in the app shows all the users in your organization. Due to our API limitation we cannot filter the users to show only those with enterprise voice enabled. Adding agents will be successful only if the selecter user(s) are enterprise voice enabled. You will not see any error thrown if the user is not enterprise voice enabled and you attempt to add them as an agent.
See Step 3: Set up who will answer incoming calls here for detail on the different ways agents can be defined to answer calls.
Note: This is a sample application. It does not have robust error handling to accomodate all exceptions. This includes error handling to account for the case where the 21st or greater agent is added to the queue, or to handle situations involving groups or Teams channels.
The architecture of this solution can be adapted to support other scenarios that require delegated admin management of Teams phone system or any other feature accessible via PowerShell cmdlet or even MS Graph API.
