This guide takes you from zero to first inbound call answered on your SIVO instance. Assumes you have an active account (if not, start your free trial).

Prerequisites

  • An active SIVO trial or Pro/Enterprise subscription
  • Access to your console at https://<your-tenant>.app.sivocenter.com
  • A PSTN number from your SIP carrier (Zadarma, Twilio, Bandwidth or any compatible)
  • (Optional) A Salesforce Service Cloud Voice org licensed to push transcripts

Step 1 · Create your first SIP trunk

  1. In the console, go to Trunks → + New trunk.
  2. Select your carrier (zadarma, twilio, bandwidth or custom).
  3. Fill in:
    • Name: e.g. zadarma-prod
    • Carrier host: e.g. sip.zadarma.com
    • User + password (SIP credentials from your carrier)
    • Allowed CIDRs: IPs the carrier uses to send calls. For Zadarma: 185.45.152.0/24.
  4. Save. Status will turn REGED within 30 s if credentials are correct.

If status stays FAIL, open Troubleshooting — 90 % of failures are misconfigured CIDRs.

Step 2 · Import a DID

  1. DIDs → + New DID.
  2. Enter the PSTN number as given by the carrier (E.164 format, e.g. +34911234567).
  3. Assign the trunk from step 1.
  4. Action on entry: for now pick Send to queue and create a quick queue called main.

Step 3 · Create agents

  1. Users → + New user.
  2. Create at least one agent (role: agent) with a free extension (e.g. 1000) and a strong password.
  3. Assign them to the main queue.
  4. Have them log in at https://<your-tenant>.app.sivocenter.com/agent.

When the agent logs in, the softphone is ready. Status flips to Available automatically.

Step 4 · Make the call

From your personal mobile, dial the PSTN number added in step 2. The call should:

  1. Ring 1–2 s at the carrier
  2. Reach SIVO and enter the main queue
  3. Get assigned to the Available agent
  4. Ring on their softphone — agent accepts
  5. Two-way audio via WebRTC

Verification: Calls → History shows the row with direction=inbound, status=answered, correct agent and queue.

Step 5 · (Optional) Connect Salesforce

If your plan includes Service Cloud Voice:

  1. In your Salesforce org, install the SIVO Connector package (one-click).
  2. In SIVO → Integrations → Salesforce → Connect.
  3. Accept the OAuth flow. SIVO auto-discovers org_id, scrt_base_url and call_center_name.
  4. User mapping: click Auto-import SF users — matches by email with your existing agents.
  5. Next inbound call creates a VoiceCall record in SF and routes the agent via Omni-Channel.
