The Level365 Attendant Console is a web-based tool for managing calls and monitoring user availability in real time. Designed for receptionists and front-line staff, it provides quick access to contacts, live presence indicators, and call handling features like transfer, hold, and park—all from one screen. This guide covers how to use the console to streamline call management and improve communication efficiency.
Google Chrome is the recommended and supported browser for all Level365 applications. Other browsers may prevent certain features from working correctly, may cause displayed information to be incomplete or delayed, and may not update data in a timely manner. Please keep this in mind if not using the Chrome web browser.
The Attendant Console works in conjunction with your Level365 desk phone or softphone. It is not a standalone calling application and requires a connected phone to place or receive calls.
Launching the Attendant Console
- Log in to the Level365 Web App.
- Note: For detailed login instructions, see our Level365 Web App Login and Overview article.
- From the top menu, click Apps, then select Attendant Console.
- The console will open in a separate browser tab.
Attendant Console Overview
The Attendant Console provides quick, visual control over calls and extension activity. The user can manage active calls, monitor user status, and quickly connect callers to the right destination. Three key components of the interface are:
- Call Park Zone - Displays available parking slots for parked calls.
- Extensions/Contacts - Shows user presence and allows quick call actions.
- Active Calls Panel - Displays calls currently on your line.
1. Call Park Zone
The Call Park Zone supports both dynamic and static call parking:
- Dynamic Call Parking - The system parks calls in the first available park location automatically.
- Static Call Parking - The call is parked in a specific, predefined parking slot.
The interface will vary slightly depending on which method is enabled, but the process is similar.
