Call Transfer Settings

Transfer Timeout

When transferring calls to staff, Maple uses a 25-second timeout to determine if the transfer was successful. If the call isn’t answered within this timeframe, it routes back to the AI.
The 25-second timeout is optimized to prevent carrier auto-responses and voicemail systems from marking the call as complete, which would prevent it from routing back to the AI.

SMS Notifications for Missed Transfers

When a transferred call isn’t answered, Maple automatically sends an SMS notification to alert staff about the missed call. Number Priority:
  1. SMS number (if configured in dashboard)
  2. Handoff number (fallback if no SMS number provided)
Automatic Validation:
  • Maple checks the line type before sending SMS
  • Text messages are not sent to landlines
  • Only valid mobile numbers receive notifications
Configure your SMS number in the dashboard to ensure staff receive missed call notifications. If no SMS number is provided, the system will use your handoff number as a fallback.
