  1. Customers performing required monthly or periodic testing of physical 911 buttons are unable to prevent emergency notifications from being sent. This creates operational noise, unnecessary alerts to internal stakeholders, and requires coordination with local PSAPs for every test.

    Requested Enhancement:

    Introduce an optional setting that allows administrators to temporarily suppress 911 alert notifications (email/SMS/internal alerts) during scheduled or admin-approved test windows while maintaining compliance and safety safeguards.

    Justification:
    Reduces unnecessary alarm and confusion during compliance testing

  2. It would be extremely helpful to have the ability to automatically sync user profile photos from Microsoft Active Directory (or Microsoft Entra ID / Azure AD) into RingCentral user profiles.

    Currently, profile photos must be uploaded manually in RingCentral, which creates extra administrative work and leads to inconsistencies across platforms. Since many organizations already maintain up-to-date profile photos in Active Directory or Microsoft 365, syncing this data would ensure consistency and save time for IT administrators.

  4. after working remotely , returning to the office , the Polycom phones have 190 messages on the desktop phone, red indicator light blinking,...is there a way to "clear" these messages that date back to December and we have responded to?

    Hopefully there is a quick way to remove vs. listening/deleting 190 messages

  8. Note : This is for RingCX

    I don't know if this is possible. However, customer is looking for a SMS Smart routing.

    For example, an existing customer already sent an SMS to a number and one of their agents already assisted that customer.

    Customer request is when that same customer sends another SMS in the future it should be routed to the same agent that assisted that customer to continue the conversation. This is regardless of what number they send to. Cx request is to also keep the conversation like on hold if ever the same customer replies to them.

  9. Currently, External Shared Directory contacts do not resolve to caller names when inbound calls are routed through a Call Queue.

    If a call is received directly by an extension, the External Shared Directory lookup functions as expected. However, when the same inbound call is distributed via a Call Queue, the caller name from the External Shared Directory does not persist to the receiving endpoint.

    This significantly limits the utility of the External Shared Directory feature for organizations that rely on Call Queues for inbound call routing.

    Most organizations that maintain a centralized main number route inbound calls through a Call…

  12. A feature is requested to enhance RingCentral's role-based access controls by allowing administrators to restrict user access to call recordings based on both site and department attributes. For example, a manager assigned to a specific site and department should only be able to access call recordings for users within that same site and department — ensuring more granular control over data visibility and security across organizational units.

  15. RingCentral users are frequently unable to receive one-time passwords (OTP) and account verification SMS messages from Telegram.
    This critical issue prevents users from securely registering or recovering their Telegram accounts using their dedicated RingCentral business number. The problem is generally understood to be caused by Telegram's security systems classifying RingCentral numbers as "VoIP," which blocks the delivery of the short code SMS.

    Call to Action:
    We request that RingCentral proactively engage with Telegram and the major Application-to-Person (A2P) SMS aggregators to formally white-list or re-categorize RingCentral numbers. This change is necessary to ensure these business numbers are treated as reliable…

  16. Request for Auto-Compression to Comply with 1.5MB MMS Limit

    1. The Critical Issue
      The RingCentral app currently enforces a strict 1.5MB combined limit for MMS attachments. In an era where a single smartphone photo is typically 3MB–8MB, almost every "untouched" photo upload results in a delivery failure. This creates a significant friction point for users in fields like construction, insurance, and healthcare who need to send visual proof quickly.

    2. Proposed Feature: "Smart-Fit" Compression
      Implement a client-side compression tool within the RingCentral Desktop and Mobile apps that triggers when an attachment exceeds 1.5MB.

    Logic: If Attachment_Size > 1.5MB, offer an "Auto-Resize for…

  19. Use Case:
    Currently, when multiple internal users reply to a group SMS with an external contact, not all internal replies are visible to the group. This makes it difficult to track communications and follow up effectively. Having a centralized view of all internal responses would improve collaboration, reduce missed messages, and streamline communication with external contacts.

    Benefit:

    Improved visibility of internal communications

    Reduced chances of duplicated responses

    Enhanced team collaboration and accountability

  20. Currently, when a call is routed through a Call Queue, RingCentral ignores the individual "Call Handling & Forwarding" (Ring Group) settings of the queue members. For users who utilize external AI assistants or automated answering services tied to their personal extension, this creates a major gap in coverage where queue calls go unanswered by the AI.

    Proposed Functionality:
    Provide a toggle within Call Queue settings (e.g., "Respect Member Forwarding Rules") that allows the queue to recognize and trigger external numbers or AI assistants added to a member's personal ring group.

    Use Case / Benefit:
    Many businesses now use third-party AI…
