Webex App | Forward your phone calls
If you're going to be away from your desk but don't want to miss an important phone call, you can forward your calls to another phone number. Or, if you don't want to be interrupted, you can send all your calls to voicemail instead. If you forward your calls to another number, you won't get called in Webex App anymore. So, be sure to turn call forwarding off when you're ready to take calls in the app again.
How you set up your call forwarding, depends on the phone service you have. If you're not sure, there's an easy way to tell.
If you don't see the Call Forward setting, you might need to turn it on first in the Self Care portal. You might be familiar with using the Self Care portal to set up options for your phone. Webex App uses those settings and lets you conveniently add to them from the app.
