Use the New-CsAutoAttendant cmdlet to create a new Auto Attendant (AA).

Description

Auto Attendants (AAs) are a key element in the Office 365 Phone System. Each AA can be associated with phone numbers that allow callers to reach specific people in the organization through a directory lookup. Alternatively, it can route the calls to an operator, a user, another AA, or a call queue.

You can create new AAs by using the New-CsAutoAttendant cmdlet; each newly created AA gets assigned a random string that serves as the identity of the AA.

Caution

The following configuration parameters are currently only available in PowerShell and do not appear in Teams admin center. Saving a call queue configuration through Teams admin center will remove any of these configured items:

  • -HideAuthorizedUsers
  • -UserNameExtension

NOTES:

  • To setup your AA for calling, you need to create an application instance first using New-CsOnlineApplicationInstance cmdlet , then associate it with your AA configuration using New-CsOnlineApplicationInstanceAssociation cmdlet.
  • The default call flow has the lowest precedence, and any custom call flow has a higher precedence and is executed if the schedule associated with it is in effect.
  • Holiday call flows have higher priority than after-hours call flows. Thus, if a holiday schedule and an after-hours schedule are both in effect at a particular time, the call flow corresponding to the holiday call flow will be rendered.
  • The default call flow can be used either as the 24/7 call flow if no other call flows are specified, or as the business hours call flow if an "after hours" call flow was specified together with the corresponding schedule and call handling association.
  • If a user is present in both inclusion and exclusion scopes, then exclusion scope always takes priority, i.e., the user will not be able to be contacted through directory lookup feature.

This example creates two new AAs named Main auto attendant and Customer Support Auto Attendant. Both AAs share the same Christmas holiday schedule. This was done by reusing the Schedule ID of the Christmas holiday when creating the call handling associations for those two AAs using New-CsAutoAttendantCallHandlingAssociation cmdlet.

We can see when we ran the Get-CsOnlineSchedule cmdlet at the end, to get the Christmas Holiday schedule information, that the configuration IDs for the newly created AAs have been added to the AssociatedConfigurationIds properties of that schedule. This means any updates made to this schedule would reflect in both associated AAs.

Removing an association between an AA and a schedule is as simple as deleting the CallHandlingAssociation of that schedule in the AA you want to modify. Please refer to Set-CsAutoAttendant cmdlet documentation for examples on how to do that.
