Our team would love to the have the ability to create conference calls in Intercom phone, for both outbound and inbound calls. We need to be able to add someone to the call (external number) while already on the call.

Hey ​@Adelaide Ayres we released the option to create 3-way calls back on 5th December, does this address your request? 😊

Here’s how to do it: 

  1. Initiate adding a participant to a call
    Click on the ellipsis icon in the Phone calling modal and select ‘Add participant’
     
  2. Add a teammate or a user or dial a phone number
    Select a saved user from the provided list or type a new phone number
     
  3. Ringing new participant
    Once a new number is selected, the modal will initiate a call to the new participant.
     
  4. Participant joined the call
    We will update the call modal UI to reflect that there are 3 participants on the call.
     
  5. Participant rejects the call
    If the participant rejects the call, we will play a voice message that the call has not been accepted.
