Assigning Your Extension to a Phone

With the appropriate permissions (set by your MiCloud administrator), you can assign your extension to any system phone. This feature is helpful if you are using someone else’s office and phone temporarily.

Depending on how your phone was configured, you can also use your phone or the Client to assign or unassign an extension.

3. Press 3.
4. Choose one of the following options:

Setting Your Availability State

Availability states let you specify your status and determine how inbound calls are handled. You can record distinct greetings and specify different call forwarding options for each state.
