Add Support for Pause Dialing
Submitting this on behalf of a customer.
They’re trying to forward calls to an external vendor line that requires navigating an IVR (like entering an extension). On their mobile phones, they can use pause dialing with commas — for example: 18007370045,7,2509. That way, the call connects, waits briefly, and then automatically sends the extension or DTMF input.
They tried using that same format in RingCentral call forwarding settings, but it gets flagged as an invalid number.
Feature request: Add support for comma-style pause dialing (or something similar) in forwarding rules and contacts.
Why it’s helpful:
Allows easier forwarding to vendor IVRs
Avoids needing to rebuild or reprogram IVR paths internally
Matches common mobile behavior users are familiar with
