Note: Only admin users can set up the Pipedrive Aircall integration in a Pipedrive company account.

Aircall can be used to set up and manage phone operations for your company, and Pipedrive Aircall integration lets you make phone calls from Pipedrive using Aircall’s functions, so you can stay productive without switching back and forth.

This integration logs all inbound/outbound calls and voicemails as activities in Pipedrive and automatically generates new Pipedrive contacts whenever you call a phone number that does not match an existing contact phone number in your Pipedrive database.
