### Power dial from Attio

You can add people from Attio to an Aircall dialer campaign to automatically import their phone numbers into a dialing list, enabling efficient outbound calling:

- From **People** or any list of people, select the checkboxes next to the people you want to power dial.
- Click **More**, then **Add to dialer campaign**.
- When you're ready, navigate to the **Power Dialer** from the Aircall app and **Start session**.

## Automated notes for Aircall calls

Once Attio is connected to Aircall, a note will automatically be added to a person's record in Attio within a few minutes of any successful call made through Aircall, even if the call wasn't initiated from Attio. Notes are also created for inbound calls.

**Note:** For call notes to sync, the person record must already exist in Attio with the correct phone number. The integration won’t create new records, and calls made before a record was created will not be synced.

Notes created from Aircall will include:
- The name of the team member who placed the call in the title
- The date and time (in UTC time zone) that the call was placed
- The length of the call
- Whether or not the call was answered
- Any notes taken within Aircall during the call
