Call tab overview

By default, the 50 latest calls are displayed. Scroll down and select Load more.
The total number of calls appears in the top right corner of the calls table.
A maximum of 1,000 calls can be shown. When this limit is reached, a note will appear.
Call filters
Use filters to focus on specific numbers, users, or teams. You can also filter by call status, such as In IVR, In Queue, Ringing, or In Call.
If your organization uses the AI Voice Agent add-on, you can filter calls where there was AI voice agent intervention.

Additional information
Here are some helpful reminders to better interpret the Calls tab:
Data refresh: Information is updated automatically.
Status persistence: Once a call is in progress, the status remains “In Call” until it ends, even if transferred.
Metrics accuracy: For unanswered calls, “waited for” equals “total call time.”
AI metrics: If your organization uses the AI Voice Agent, additional AI intervention metrics will be visible.
Tip: If you need to contact Aircall Support about a specific call, copy the Call ID (UUID) from the details panel.
