Whether you are running into an issue with the call center definition file when installing the Aircall's Salesforce CTI Package, or are needing to add the CTI manually for another reason, the steps below will ensure that Aircall's CTI is added to your Salesforce environment.
Step 1
Save the Aircall call center definition file as an XML file.
This can be done by copying the text below and pasting it into a text editor (such as Notepad for Windows or BBEdit for Mac, as examples). Once pasted into your text editor, simply click Save or Save As and select to save the file as an XML, or enter .xml at the end of the file name before saving.
Alternatively, please feel free to download the XML file directly by following this link.
⚠️ Please note: You will receive a warning when attempting to download the file via the link. Click 'Download anyway' to continue downloading.
