Conversation Assist
Enhancements
Offer recommendations to specific agent groups
You might want to offer answer and bot recommendations only to specific groups of agents, for example, only to new agents who are onboarding. And now you can.
In Settings, you’ll now find a setting that you can use to limit recommendations to one or more agent groups. Simply select the predefined groups.
Note the following:
- This new setting affects both inline recommendations and those offered in the On-Demand Recommendations widget.
- As the message in the UI indicates, if you don’t select any agent groups, recommendations are offered to all agents.
- Keep in mind that recommendations are still skill-based too. The selected agent groups work as the first filter to determine whether an agent is eligible to receive recommendations. The skills in play work as the second filter.
For example, assume that you’re limiting recommendations to a “NewHires” agent group. Further, you have a Telco FAQs knowledge base assigned to the “Support” skill. For an agent to be offered an answer from the knowledge base, the agent must 1) be in the “NewHires” agent group, and 2) pick up a conversation that was routed to the “Support” skill. (The consumer's query must also match an article in the knowledge base.)
Fixes
Reports: Users couldn’t freely select date ranges
We’ve fixed an issue that prevented you from selecting the date ranges that you desired to view reports for that date range.
This has been fixed. Now, you can select any date range. If there are no reports for the date range, a “No data available” message is shown. Otherwise, the reports for that date range are shown.
Engagement Controller
Features
Publish new API for Engagement Controller
Engagement Controller is a feature within Conversation Orchestrator that lets you control the incoming flow of conversations in Web messaging by showing and hiding engagements on your website according to defined skill thresholds.
Engagement Controller is in addition to existing Campaign Builder settings. It lets you use welcome bots to start conversations and control whether Web Messaging engagements are shown or hidden based on skill availability. Campaign Builder settings for enabling and disabling engagements and for campaign time frame have priority over Engagement Controller settings. Further details can be found here
The Engagement Controller API extracts data according to the search query. The API allows brands to extract information about their engagements configured in the Engagement Controller UI. The data includes engagement rule results and support in the following methods:
- Engagement Controller rules by account ID
