One click opens the contact or record. **Captivo Link for 8x8** is a browser extension for Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge, for everyone with a call-logging seat. When your 8×8 line rings, a small window shows who's calling: their name, company and open records from your CRM. Click to open the contact or any of their records in a new tab, or have it open by itself. ![The caller window: Jane Citizen of Citizen & Co is ringing, with three open matters and an Open button](https://mintcdn.com/captivolabs/Sm9WXw5bao7VBrID/images/captivo-link/chrome-extension-caller.png?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=Sm9WXw5bao7VBrID\&q=85\&s=a677c96fc53049a93c00a0b82a946538) The caller window while the line rings (sample) You keep answering calls as you do now: in the 8×8 app, on the web or on a desk phone. The extension never answers or places calls, and Captivo Link logs your calls in your CRM whether or not it's open. *** ## Who can use it * Anyone with a **call-logging seat** in a Captivo Link workspace whose calls are being logged. It's included with the seat, at no extra cost. * It runs in **Google Chrome** or **Microsoft Edge** on a computer. * Each person signs in with the work email they use for 8×8. Switch someone's seat off on the **Team** page and they stop seeing callers straight away. *** ## For admins: getting it to your team The extension is unlisted on the Chrome Web Store, so it doesn't come up in a search. Your team installs it from the link in Captivo Link. 1. In Captivo Link, open **Chrome extension** in the side menu. It appears once your workspace is logging calls. 2. Click **Copy link** and send it to your team by email, Slack or Teams. The same page shows **who's using it**: everyone with a seat, whether they've signed in yet, the browser they use and when they last used it. Click **Sign out** next to someone to sign them out of the extension. ### Installing it for the whole firm If your firm manages its browsers centrally, IT can install the extension on everyone's at once. Each person still signs in once with their work email. The **Chrome extension** page in Captivo Link has the values to copy. * **Google Chrome, through Google Workspace:** in the Google Admin console, go to **Devices → Chrome → Apps & extensions**, and add it by its extension ID. * **Microsoft Edge, through Intune or Group Policy:** add the value shown on the page to Edge's `ExtensionInstallForcelist` policy. It installs the extension from the Chrome Web Store. *** ## Setting it up Installing the extension opens its setup page. It takes about a minute. > [!NOTE] > > In Microsoft Edge, the first time you open the install link, Edge asks to **Allow extensions from other stores**. Click **Allow**, then **Add to Chrome**: it installs in Edge. **1. Sign in with your work email** Enter the email you use for 8×8 and click **Email me a code**. We email you a 6-digit code, which works for 10 minutes. Enter it to sign in. If you have a seat in more than one workspace, choose the one whose calls this browser should show. **2. Connect 8×8** Sign in with your usual 8×8 login in the panel on the page. Once it shows the dialpad, click **I can see the dialpad**. The extension can now hear your phone ring. **3. Call yourself to try it** From your mobile, ring your 8×8 number. The caller window pops up while it rings. > [!TIP] > > Pin Captivo Link to your toolbar from the browser's extensions menu (the puzzle-piece icon), so you can see at a glance that it's working. You stay signed in. Each time you use the extension, your sign-in is renewed for another 90 days. *** ## When a call comes in The caller window shows: * **A known caller:** their name, company and open records (matters, deals or tickets, depending on your CRM). Click **Open** for the contact, or click a record to open it. * **Two contacts on one number:** both, so you can pick the right one. * **A colleague:** calls from your firm's own 8×8 extensions show as a colleague. * **An unknown number:** the number, and that it isn't in your CRM. The window shows whether the call is ringing, answered or over. By default it closes by itself 2 minutes after the call ends. *** ## Settings Open the settings from the gear in the extension's toolbar popup. | Setting | What it does | | - | - | | **Show the caller window** | Shows who's calling and their open records, in a small window. On by default. | | **Bring it to the front** | Puts the window over whatever you're working in. When it's off, the window opens behind, and the toolbar icon shows a **1**. On by default. | | **Open the contact in a new tab** | Opens a known caller's contact without a click: **When the call rings**, **When the call is answered**, or **Off** (the default). | | **Close the window by itself** | **30 seconds**, **2 minutes** (the default) or **5 minutes** after the call ends, or **Never**. | The toolbar popup also shows whether caller ID is working, and today's callers. Click one to see their window again. *** ## Troubleshooting > [accordion] I didn't get a sign-in code > > Codes only go to people with a call-logging seat in a workspace whose calls are being logged. Check your spam folder, then ask your admin whether your seat is switched on in Captivo Link. > [accordion] Nothing pops up when my phone rings > > * Open the toolbar popup. If it says **Sign in to 8×8**, click it and sign in until you see the dialpad. > * Check **Show the caller window** is on in the settings. > * Calls from your firm's own 8×8 extensions show as a colleague. To test, call from a phone that isn't on your firm's 8×8. > [accordion] The popup says it's not showing callers > > The popup says why. If your seat has been switched off, or your workspace's CRM isn't connected, ask your admin. *** ## Privacy * The extension never holds your CRM login. Lookups go through Captivo Link, using your workspace's connection to your CRM. * Today's callers are kept in the browser's memory only while it's running, and never written to disk. * It only looks up the number calling you. It doesn't read the web pages you visit. More detail is in our [privacy policy](https://docs.captivolabs.com/privacy-policy.md).
