Introduction

The LiveVox Call Control API provides methods that allow you to interact with the LiveVox Automatic Call Distributor (ACD) for client applications that need to do first and third-party call control, such as agent desktops. The Call Control API adds methods to support agent actions, such as joining call and changing status. In future versions, this API will add the rest of these agent controls as well as others as required for developing custom agent desktops.

For a general overview of the LiveVox APIs, include security aspects, see the LiveVox API Overview.
