  • Select Add filter.
  • Under the Call Details sub-menu, select Call Outcome.
  • Set the value to Not Answered.
  • Click OK.



Step 4. Add an Email Notifications action


  • Click the + plus sign again.
  • Select Perform action.
  • Under the Integrations sub-menu, select Email Notifications.
