Tracking codes deployed in iframes
Delacon has rolled out an update to its tracking code that ensures greater accuracy of call tracking data when numbers are displayed in an iframe. In the past, call tracking numbers displayed in an iframe may have caused inaccuracies in call tracking data, but the new code update eliminates this risk. Customers do not need to make any changes to their implementation of the Delacon tracking code on their sites to take advantage of this update.
Google Forwarding Numbers on Call Only ad integrations
Customers can now define whether they want to implement Google Forwarding Numbers for each CID when they integrate their tracking numbers with Google Call Only ads. You can read more in our guide.

After a recent update, the Service ID (CID) will appear in the Call Log Report for each call. This allows users to understand which CID each call relates to. This new data also appears in the .csv download of the Call Log Report. You can read more about the Call Log Report on our Support site.

Tracking code enhancements to handle Ajax call and click call event handling
We have updated our tracking code to handle ajax calls. Instead of the tracking number being shown on the initial page load, developers can now code their CTAs to call the Delacon function, which will then supply the tracking number only when needed. This is particularly useful for directories, or organisations that use ajax to update pages with new store locations when a user performs a search on their website, for example. This allows customers to save money by not requiring a large number of tracking numbers.
Deployment of Call Tagging
A new way to categorise calls was released, which uses tagging to categorise calls using the Speech Analytics Module. Read more here.
SMS360 – order numbers within the Delacon portal
SMS360 allows you to follow up calls with an SMS message sent directly to your customers. They can then respond, and you can continue the conversation. Read more here.

Advanced filtering
Delacon’s Call Log Report allows a range of filtering options in its Advanced Filter section. You can filter your data by keyword, city, call date, and others. You can also add more than one filter at once, using AND/OR logic. Read more about Advanced Filtering.
Credit Card Number Redaction
Delacon’s credit card redaction feature is able to recognise the sequence and patterns of credit card numbers when words such as ‘credit’, ‘debit’, ‘Mastercard’, ‘Visa’, and ‘AmEx’ are present in the whole call transcript and immediately replaces them with # characters. Read more about Credit Card Number Redaction.
White Label Forgot Password Link
Improvements have been made to Delacon’s white label portal. Users can now add their email to the forget password configuration. Doing so means that when a client requests a new password a ‘Forgot Password’ email and link will appear to come from the user’s own email, even though it is being sent by Delacon’s system. See the White Label Forgot Password Link guide for more information about activating this feature.
Login Activity feature
Enhancements have been made to the Delacon portal and a new Login Activity feature has been released. This feature generates a report of all login activity, providing information for our customers to see who has accessed their account. The report can be filtered by Account Name, Machine IP, Date, Time, Activity Type and Status. For more information see the Login Activity Support Guide.
Delacon Reporting API
Additional enhancements have been made to the Delacon reporting API. There is now greater access to information about captured Google Ads details such as:
• Keyword-ID
• Ad-ID
• Adgroup-ID
• Campaign-ID
• Account-ID
• Account name
This feature is beneficial to any customer using the reporting API, who would like additional information about the Google Ads visit.
New Interpretation for UTM Medium
When a user lands on a website with query string parameters- if the Delacon system see a utm medium parameter defined, we will automatically define the source. The “type” column in your call log will show the value defined as utm_medium=.
This feature is useful in that the Delacon tracking code will define the source by tagging it explicitly and will be of benefit to customers who want more granularity on reporting based on standardised utm parameters.
Adobe EVar Enhancement
Enhancements to available EVars for Adobe Analytics, provides users with more thorough datasets and insights.
Update to Change Password Feature in the New Portal
Changing password to master ID (MID) can now be done in the new portal, rather than having to navigate to the old portal to make the change. This new feature was introduced for flexibility and ease of use. Passwords created must meet sufficient complexity criteria.
Upgrade to Cut-Key Selection
The cut key to drop the call or transfer to a survey could previously only be performed from (numerical values) 0-9. Our latest upgrade has enabled the star and hash keys to also be selected as cut-keys as long as call recording pause has not been selected. This function provides greater options for cut-keys to be used for clients who prefer numerical keys for internal transfers only.
Outbound Call Recording IVR
Enhancements to outbound call recording have been implemented to store files in Google Cloud Storage. Previously, files were stored locally on Delacon’s infrastructure and then transferred on schedule. Files for outbound call recordings are now immediately available to be listened to. This feature is automatically available for all clients using outbound call recording.
You can now add two additional parameters, which encourages you to add 3 new fields to CRM upload that are accessible to GA and DCM.
Previously, you could combine only:
- Delacon campaign ID
- Caller phone number
- Date/time of the call
- Sale value
- Platform to upload the conversion to
Example: 123,+61412345678,20200616 09:22:00.000,100.00,GA
You can now add two new parameters:
- Call ID
- CRM variable
Example: With Call ID:
123,+61412345678,20200616 09:22:00.000,100.00,GA,CALL_ID
Example: With CRM variable without Call ID:
Adding 1 CRM variable:
123,+61412345678,20200616 09:22:00.000,100.00,GA,,crm1
Adding more CRM variables:
123,+61412345678,20200616 09:22:00.000,100.00,GA,,crm1,crm2,crm3
Example: With Call ID and CRM variables
Adding 1 CRM variable:
123,+61412345678,20200616 09:22:00.000,100.00,GA,CALL_ID,crm1
Adding more CRM variables:
123,+61412345678,20200616 09:22:00.000,100.00,GA,CALL_ID,crm1,crm2,crm3
These fields are optional; therefore, you can append empty, one, two or three CRM value/s by using the comma delimiter.
Out of hours IVR
Delacon have expanded the capabilities of our IVR where an additional IVR can be played out of hours. This can be custom built for clients and allows greater scope for more specific call flows. This IVR is an entirely different IVR to the clients’ regular IVR that gets activated out of hours to enable a different call flow for those who need it.
Offline Call Transcription
Call transcription and related services are now enabled for clients who do not have call recording active with Delacon, but have their own call recordings. We are able to manually upload the recording files for use of Delacon’s Speech Analytics. Clients can experience the full spectrum of Speech Analytics features.
Minimal Spending Enforcer
Minimum spend monitoring- if a minimum spending amount is in place (in the clients’ contracts), this will now be enforced. Each billing cycle will automatically reflect the defined minimum spend if the minimum spend had not been met or exceeded.
Merging of Call Records in the Call Report
With our current IVR service, there are certain configurations that mean every call made will generate 2 call records in the Call Report. This occurs in instances with geographic routing. Our new Call Record Merging feature will combine multiple call records into one, for ease of reporting. Nothing will have to be done to activate this as it is an automated process
Token Instead of Password in New User Tool
Previously when setting up the New User Configuration tool, the person conducting the setting up process would set, and have knowledge of the new user’s password. Now a link will automatically be sent to the end user instead, enabling them to set their own password to further increase security.
Clients’ Delacon Account will be temporarily locked for 30 minutes if a user (master/user/agency/company) types the wrong passwords in 5 consecutive times. Once the user does successfully log in, their failed attempt will be reset to 0. This is another feature important in PCI compliance.
The following enhancements have been made to Delacon’s webhook application.
- Increased the timeout threshold to 30 seconds (previously 3 seconds) to allow more time for a response from the client side endpoint.
- A change of the webhook application from single threaded to multi threaded, which increases throughput and handles multiple concurrent requests more effectively.
- Post call updates (push 2/”update”) will always be sent out if the customer side endpoint responds with a 200/204 message, even if the response does not follow the recommended specifications.
- Other internal optimisations to improve application stability.
Alignment of DTMF structure for Delacon IVRs and captured third party IVRs.
