Interactions

The Interactions page lets you manage both Sharing and Voice interactions of Targeted users. Active recordings are shown in red. Once a recording has ended, and is successfully synchronized with the database, you can playback the recording using the Media player. The Interactions page of the Global Admin user displays interactions for all Targeted users of the M365 tenant. The Interactions page for a specific user displays interactions according to the configuration of the attached Access Profile of this user's AAD group. For example, if Adele Vance is attached to the Sales-US AAD group whose profile is configured with full access, then this user can also access interactions of all users of the M365 tenant. For each interaction, you can open the Media Player to view the Time line of the call and details. The details displayed under the Time line is determined by whether the columns are displayed on the page itself. When you hide columns in the page (see Customizing Columns), then the column data that is removed from page view is displayed under the Time line of the call. You can filter interactions according to specified search criteria and export data to an Excel file.

Sharing interactions includes the automatic recording of content sharing including the application window, browser tab or the entire desktop sharing from Microsoft Teams clients. Sharing recordings can be played back together with the Voice Recordings. Likewise both Voice and Sharing recordings can be simultaneously downloaded.
