Is there a way to see in the UI the externalID for engagement type CALL that the API provides?

Hi, @Fivetran 👋 Thanks for the interesting question. This property and its values are only available via the response from the Engagements API. To see it displayed in-app, you’d need to copy the value and store it as a custom property on the associated Objects record.

Best,

Jaycee

I also want to show some call engagement metadata fields in engagement UI, how can I add them. Unable to find the option. I am creating call engagement using legacy apis and associating contact with it. Sharing UI where I want to see external Id and some other fields.

Also can we add custom fields here such as call time etc.  
Need help
