# The Contact Center for agents
The Agent View in the sipgate desktop app provides a central workspace for team telephony in the contact center.
The Contact Center in the sipgate Desktop App gives you, as an agent, a central workspace for your team telephony. At a glance, you can see who is available, how many calls are waiting, and you can control your status.
Requirement: Agent View is part of the sipgate Premium plan. Your admin must assign you to a Contact Center channel so that it appears in your app. If no Premium app is being used, the regular channel functions are available.
#### How does the Contact Center view work in the Premium app?
In the left sidebar of the Desktop App, all Contact Center channels to which you are assigned as an agent are listed. Contact Center channels automatically move to the top of the navigation. Clicking a channel opens it.
The two tabs in the channel:
| Tab | Content |
| ------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Inbox | Call history of the channel — all incoming and outgoing calls, sorted chronologically. |
| Availability | Live metrics for the channel (waiting calls, average wait time, team AHT, max. wait time) and the respective agents, as well as a filterable overview of the real-time status of all team members. |
When you first open a channel, you land in the tab **Availability**. After that, the app remembers your last visited tab.
Log in and out: In the top right of the channel area, use the Logged in / Logged out button to change your status. Only logged-in agents receive calls from the queue. The status is visible to admins in Live Monitoring.
#### How can I adjust the wrap-up time myself?
After each completed call, the configured wrap-up time starts automatically. The running timer is shown in the bottom left of the app.\
\
The wrap-up time can be adjusted as follows:
Extend: Click + 1 minute to get more time for after-call work.
End early: Click End to finish the wrap-up time and become available again.
Note: Adjusting the wrap-up time affects the evaluation of **team performance** and **service performance** of the individual agent. This feature is available exclusively in the sipgate Premium app.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.
Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:
```
GET https://help.sipgate.de/contact-center/en/das-contact-center-fur-agents.md?ask=&goal=
```
`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.
The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
