Increase Call Answer rates with Local Presence Dialing (via Labs)
4th of August, 2025
Increase Call Answer rates by calling contacts from the same area code automatically
– Calling someone in Dallas, Texas (area code of Dallas is 214)

Automatically uses a number from Dallas (if available)

– Calling someone with area code 888


Of all the phone numbers available, call from the phone number with the same area code as the contact automatically; increasing trust and increasing chances of the call being answered.
How to use it?
– Enable the feature under Agency settings > Labs > Sub-account tab


– Go to Sub-account settings > Phone Numbers > Advanced Settings > Voice Calls > Outbound Call > Default Phone Number for Outbound Calls

– Choose Local Presence Dialing
Notes
– Supports all area codes of a region: If calling a contact with area code 241 in Dallas, you do not have a phone number with area code 241. But you do have a Dallas number with area code 972, the 972 number will be used to make the call
– Sub-account’s default phone number is used as the backup in case no phone numbers matches the region
– Supports USA/Canada only
– Supported only on Web currently. Mobile App support coming soon

Snapshot Workflow Email Action – Enhanced Flow
Template management just got simpler! Only original templates and workflows appear in the target location, with email actions handled automatically in the background.
Overview
The target location’s template list now only displays original templates and workflows, eliminating the clutter caused by email action templates. These email action templates are still imported and mapped in the background, but they remain hidden from users. This enhancement streamlines the template management process and improves the syncing of workflows and templates.
Benefits
– Clean Interface: The target location now shows only original templates and workflows.
– Reduced Clutter: Only core templates and workflows are visible, improving navigation.
– Reliable Syncing: Email action templates are automatically mapped and synced with workflows.
✅What’s New
– Clean Target List View: Only original templates are displayed in the target location’s template list, while email action templates are hidden but still imported in the background.
– Streamlined Snapshot Listing: The snapshot modal now only shows original templates and workflows. Email action templates remain hidden but are imported and mapped in the background.
– Improved Sync Logic: Syncing works as expected when both the workflow and template are pushed together, or if the template is pushed before the workflow.
How to Use
1. Take a Snapshot: From the source location, select the workflows and templates to snapshot.
2. View in Target Location: In the target location, only original templates and workflows will appear in the template list.
1. Automatic Background Management: Email action templates are automatically imported and mapped to the selected workflows, with no additional user action required.
NOTE :
To ensure expected behaviour, existing workflows and email actions must be deleted and re-pushed after a snapshot refresh with the snapshot to apply the latest changes.
Limitations
– Email Action Availability: Email actions won’t be available, if only the workflow is pushed without its linked template. Mapping and sync will fail if the template is pushed after the workflow. (Known limitation from snapshot)
– Sync Failures: Mapping and syncing will fail if the template is pushed after its corresponding workflow.
– Bulk Deletion Not Supported: Email actions do not support bulk deletion. Developer help is required for mass deletes.
