Troubleshooting
If you don’t see Fallback Options on the Main Line, your calls may route through a default Contact Center instead:- Go to Settings → Contact Center.
- Find the default Contact Center.
- Apply the same fallback and closed-hours steps inside the Contact Center’s routing settings.

Removing the “This Is a Recorded Call” Announcement
To prevent the recorded-call announcement from playing when your Avoca number answers, add the Avoca number to Dialpad’s recording exception list: For Departments:- Log in to Dialpad and open your Admin Settings.
- Click Departments and choose the department to configure.
- Open Advanced Settings and find Automatic Call Recording.
- Check “Automatically record calls to this department”, then click Edit Exception List.
- Add the Avoca number (or its area code) to exclude it from recording and the announcement.
- In Admin Settings, click Contact Centers and choose the one to configure.
- Open Advanced Settings and find Automatic Call Recording and Transcription.
- Select which call types to record, then click Edit Exception List and add the Avoca number.
Calls to or from a number on the exception list are not recorded by Dialpad and the announcement is omitted. Useful for complying with regional call-recording laws — note that Avoca’s own call recording and disclosure settings are configured separately in your Avoca account.
