# Call a colleague

There are two ways to get a colleague's attention: **Wave** and **Call**.

**Wave**: press **Wave** on their row in Team. When their status is Active, the row has no inline Wave button; choose **Wave** from the row menu or person profile. A client they have running plays one chime. The wave expires after 45 seconds. They do not have to answer.

**Call**: press **Call** on their row.

- If they are in a meeting, you knock on the room they are in and go in. That is their own room, or a colleague's when they are a guest there. **Join room** in their row menu does the same.
- If they are available but not in a meeting, they see **Open room / Not now**. If they open the room, you go in. If they do not answer within a minute, they are away.

Starlings does not transcribe a room that a call opened. If the call becomes a meeting, turn captions on during the call.

You cannot wave or call an agent. Send it a message.
