Overview
The Unified History is a place that keeps the records of all call transactions within the Organization. It will provide:
- Basic details - Call Directions (Incoming/Outgoing calls), Phone Numbers, Extension Numbers, Date & Time, etc.
- Advanced details - Call Result, Call Metadata, Call Journey, Call Recording, Voicemail, etc.
Note:
Data in Call History will be stored up to 1 year since the date the call is created. It takes a few mins (max: 5 mins) for the data to appear on the portal after the call ends. Longer call duration will require longer processing time.

It can have multiple outgoing legs dialed sequentially or simultaneously. Hence, the From is the outgoing leg who picked up the call first.
