Access Policies

Use Access Control Policies to assign granular access permissions for your Users in Communication Recording Agent using call Filters (which calls) and Claims (which groups/users in your Organization Hierarchy).

Access control policies work together with User Roles to provide flexible control of your User access permissions. As mentioned above, these policies work on pairing call Filters and groups/users using Claims, these work on top of access permissions provided by the User's roles, for example a User could have the Manager Role with several Agents (granting the User access to the Agent's calls), this User could also be part of a wider sales team and could need access to the metadata for all sales calls, this could be provided using Access Policies.
