MyQ Direct Configuration
Overview
MyQ Direct is a Sharpen feature that enables queue calls to route directly to an agent's desk phone without requiring the agent to be logged into the Sharpen Q application. This allows organizations to leverage queue functionality, including call recording, transcription, and Sharpen AI features such as summarization, sentiment analysis, and AI scoring, even when agents are working solely from a desk phone. Interactions handled through MyQ Direct are fully visible in Insights under the Queue Activity and Queue Segment Activity data sources.
To enable this feature, a feature flag must be activated. Required Feature Flag "MyQ" - This can be added to your organization by request through Sharpen Care, or through your Customer Success Manager.
Steps to Configure:

Go to Admin → Configuration → Inbound Routes.
