How do I use Fone&Text in conjunction with Ringcentral Classic?

RingCentral is a powerful cloud phone system that also comes with a Mac telephone app. To use RingCentral in conjunction with the Fone&Text Daylite extension, please follow these steps:

Please note: with version 20.4 of its app, RingCentral has removed the ability to launch external apps. Therefore the Daylite integration is only possible up to app version 20.3 (aka RingCentral Classic).

1. Make sure the RingCentral app is installed on your Mac and works independently from Daylite 
2. In the Daylite Plugins menu navigate to Fone&Text -> Preferences -> Telephones
3. Click the plus sign, select Script Based from the drop-down menu and click OK
4. Select RingCentral under App for Outbound Calls. This enables outbound calls from within Daylite via the RingCentral app. 
5. In order to get inbound calls to be recognized by Fone&Text, please open the RingCentral app Settings and select the Calls tab (see screen shot below)
6. Activate the option Launch an external app or a URL on incoming call
7. Copy and paste the command open "daylite://fone-connector/incoming?number=%E” into the Execute command text box 
8. Click Test to make sure the Fone&Text call window opens.

This finalizes the configuration. Instructions on how to initiate a call from within Daylite can be found here.
