ZynoTalk
WebWorkstationZynoTalk is ZynoSuite's business communications workspace for calls, voicemail, SMS, fax, and communication reports. Use it when you need to place calls, review call history and recordings, handle messages, send or receive faxes, or report on communication activity.
Permission Required
ZynoTalk access is managed per phone number and per extension. If a tab is missing or a number is not available, an administrator may need to grant access in ZynoTalk Numbers.
ZynoTalk Mobile
The main ZynoTalk workspace is available in ZynoSuite Web and Workstation. Mobile calling uses the separate ZynoTalk Mobile app. See ZynoTalk Setup and ZynoTalk Calling.Getting There
Open ZynoTalk from the Home Launcher or sidebar. The ZynoTalk workspace shows the tabs your account can use:

- Calls - call history, recordings, transcripts, summaries, and share links.
- Voicemail - voicemail messages for voicemail-enabled extensions.
- SMS - text conversations for messaging-enabled numbers.
- Fax - digital fax inbox, sent faxes, and fax sending.
- Reports - call, text, and fax activity reporting.
Unread indicators appear on the Voicemail, SMS, and Fax tabs when there is new activity.
Choosing Your Scope
Most ZynoTalk tabs use the number and extension selector in the header. The selector can show My Numbers, All Numbers, or an individual number or extension depending on the tab and your access.
The selector filters each tab to the communication channel it supports. For example, SMS only shows messaging-enabled numbers, Fax only shows digital fax numbers, and Voicemail only shows voicemail-enabled extensions.
See Number Selector for details.
