Admin Center Access and Home Screen


Admin Center Access


The Admin Center is a web application. Access it from the Telebroad home page under the Login menu or by entering  https://account.telebroad.com in your web browser.



Enter your access credentials and select SIGN IN. Your Admin Center credentials are the same as your TeleConsole credentials.


If two-factor authentication (2FA) is active, an additional security step will prompt you to select an email address where a six-digit authentication code will be sent. Enter this code on the following screen to complete the authentication process.

You can receive the code on any email address associated with any of your Telebroad accounts (if you have more than one) and select Switch method to select an alternate address.

Two-factor authentication can be enabled or disabled for an entire account from the Admin Center Account Security settings.


You can also select to Sign in with Google or Sign in with Office 365. This will open a browser tab where you can authenticate with your Google or Microsoft credentials. An advantage of these methods is that you can have two-factor authentication for these login methods even 2FA is not globally enabled for Telebroad accounts. 


If you check the Remember Me box you will remain logged in for 30 days, even if you close the browser window. Otherwise, you will remain logged in just until you close the Admin Center browser window.


Password Reset


If you forgot your password select the Forgot your password? link. Provide the email address used for your account and select RESET PASSWORD. You will receive an email with a link to take you to a web page or a TeleConsole screen where you can enter a new password. Remember that this will also change your TeleConsole password.



For Google or Microsoft password reset first select to sign in with either account then select the relevant account recovery link. Google Forgot email?/Forgot Password? or Microsoft Can't access your account?. Resetting your password for the TeleConsole will also reset it for all your Google or Microsoft products and services and will require you to sign in with the new password!

Signed-out accounts on the list are greyed out and appear with the option to Sign in.



Voice Features Quick Menu


Voice Features are accessed from the Admin Center menu where you can view and manage all voice features on the system. User guides are available here.


The voice features quick menu saves you time (especially when building a phone system) by letting you add new voice features with one click. 



Call Activity Overview / History


Here you can see basic call activity statistics for a selected date range. The summary boxes show the total calls for the date range while the Call History plots the calls on a graph. The All Group Calls box summarizes all the calls arriving from queues or hunt group. Clicking on the graph will show an information bubble with the values for a specific date on the x-axis of the graph. 


You can click the Incoming calls or Outgoing calls buttons to show or hide the relevant call graphs.  


Use the button to pick the date range from a calendar. Change the month with the arrows () and click the month to change the year.
