⚠️ A progressive roll-out is underway. You’ll be informed when it’s time for your company to transition.
Overview
Dial phone numbers from any webpage, or add them to an automated calling list.
Aircall's browser extension activates Aircall’s Click-to-Dial and accelerates customer connections with the Power Dialer. It automatically detects phone numbers on webpages, adding them to your Aircall Workspace or Power Dialer calling queue.
- Dial phone numbers from any webpage or add them to an automated calling list
- Select which local or international numbers to detect from any webpage, such as a prospect’s website, Google Sheets, and more
- Select whether to highlight detected numbers on the webpage or not
- Identify even hidden numbers on a webpage
- Scroll a webpage when you want to find more phone numbers
- Detected numbers can be imported into a movable widget for enhanced visibility
- Select multiple numbers or reorder them in the widget before adding them to a Power Dialer session
- Quickly identify duplicates or invalid numbers for better accuracy
Aircall only supports the Google Chrome extension. Please note: The Chrome browser extension is fully compatible with the Edge browser, allowing Edge users to install and use it seamlessly, without any restrictions or the need to switch to Chrome browser.
To start, you will need to install the Aircall Extension on Google Chrome. To activate the extension, please click on the Aircall Extension icon on the navigation bar of your browser (upper right-hand corner), then login with your Aircall credentials. After logging in, you will see two screens, each of which can be opened and closed as necessary.
Extension Settings
The first screen you will see is your Extension Settings where you can choose to show the number panel on web pages, highlight numbers on web pages, detect hidden numbers on pages, enable use with Aircall Workspace, and choose which local number formats you wish to search for:
When “Highlight phone numbers” is turned on, each identified number will be highlighted in green, and you will be able to simply click the number to dial it in Aircall Workspace:
The Aircall Extension will search for numbers in local formats from the countries you select in the Extension Settings.
By clicking on your initials or picture that is displayed in the top right, you will be able to either open your Aircall Workspace application or log out:
In the 'Your local numbers' section, you will be able to select up to 5 countries that you would like the extension to recognize local number formats for. The countries listed here are based on the numbers that you are assigned to, meaning you must be assigned to an Aircall number from a particular country in order for the extension to identify local formats of that country's numbers on you webpages. The extension will automatically identify any numbers that are in an international format (with a country code included), regardless of your selections in this section.
You can close the Extension Settings at any time by clicking on any part of the webpage you are on. You can open the Extension Settings again as needed by clicking again on the Aircall Extension icon in your browser.
Number Panel
The second screen you will see is the Numbers Panel:
From here you can see all identified numbers found on your current web page, and will be able to open each in Aircall Workspace for calling. You are also able to add multiple numbers to a Power Dialing list which can be used to call multiple numbers back to back.
You can close the Numbers Panel by clicking on the green widget below the screen, and can move the screen around as needed by clicking the three horizontal lines and dragging it across your webpage. If you would like the widget to not show at all, you can toggle 'Show numbers panel on pages' off.
Using the Number Panel for Click-to-Dial and the Power Dialer
When visiting a webpage that contains phone numbers, the Number Panel will identify and show each:
By clicking the phone icon next to a number, you are able to automatically dial that number in Aircall Workspace.
By clicking the three dots next to a number, you are able to find the number on your webpage or copy the phone number:
Please note that if number highlighting is enabled in the Extension Settings page, the 'Show on page' option will be greyed out as the number will already be highlighted.
If a number was identified as being in a local format, that information will be displayed by hovering over an “i” next to the number:
This feature can help you to identify any numbers that were mistakenly added to the list due to them matching a local phone number format of one of the countries selected in the Extension Settings.
As an alternative you can add identified numbers to the Power Dialer list. Reorder the identified numbers, if required, and add them to the Power Dialer list either in bulk or by selecting some of them.
If any numbers that have already been added to your Power Dialer list are detected, they will be shown in the “Duplicate” section and will not be added again. Any numbers identified as being invalid will be shown in the “Invalid” section of the Chrome extension.
You can continue the navigation to add more numbers or click “Open Aircall” to switch to Aircall Workspace and start dialing. You can find out more about how it works by consulting this article.
⚠️ Please note the Power Dialer feature is currently only available on the Aircall Professional plan.
Displaying contact and company name in the Number Panel
This new feature helps outbound calling teams improve their productivity as it enables them to identify contacts before clicking to Click-to-dial or pushing the numbers to the Power Dialer session.
Whenever the extension retrieves a number that belongs to an Aircall contact, the Number Panel will display the contact's name and company.
As shown in the image below, the extension has detected one Aircall contact within all the numbers found. Therefore, it shows the contact's name and their company:
⚠️ Please note that the contact's company will only be shown if the contact has a company in their record. Otherwise, only the contact's name will be shown.
