It will be displayed in the Zoom desktop client during an active engagement if that customer is a contact in the Zoom address book, which will show in the Zoom desktop client if he or she is a contact in Zoom. The agent can add a new contact if the consumer does not appear in any of the address books, and then select the address book that the new contact belongs to. It is also possible to organize your address book with the help of address book units. It is possible to view address books and contact information using the Zoom desktop client by Zoom Contact Center admins, supervisors, and agents.
