Before you start
- An Operata account and your Operata Group ID.
- Microsoft Edge on a supported version. See Browser compatibility for the current list.
- For enterprise deployments: admin access to your Microsoft Edge policy or device-management tool.
Steps
1. Install the extension
Open the Operata Collector listing in Microsoft Edge Add-ons and click Get. For packaged enterprise deployments on Windows and macOS, follow Microsoft’s guide to managing Edge extensions and push extension IDghgkknhlginpepabafckbejbpfmdppjk through your existing policy.
2. Confirm the extension is loaded
Openedge://extensions/ in the agent’s browser. The Operata Collector appears in the list with the toggle in the on position. Edge maintains the extension automatically; the Microsoft Edge Add-ons listing shows the current version.
3. Place a test contact
Have the agent open the contact center softphone in the same browser profile and place a test contact end to end.Verify
In the Operata console, open Contacts and filter to the last 10 minutes. Your test contact appears with theserviceAgent field populated — browser.name reads Edg (Edge’s user-agent identifier) and operataChromeExtVersion matches the version shown in edge://extensions/. (The field name keeps the Chrome prefix because the Edge extension shares the build pipeline with the Chrome version.)
