Retaining Enable/Disable State of Imported Use Cases

Imported use cases now retain their “enable/disable” state from when they were exported.

Error Message Configuration

The error message display pattern in the Agent AI widget has been updated to help agents view and understand issues without unnecessary redundancy.

You can configure error messages during Use Case creation at the bot level. These messages are displayed in the Agent AI widget for invalid user input. The runtime display varies based on whether a single or multiple error messages are triggered.

Single Error Message

When a single error message is triggered during dialog task execution, the Assist tab displays the error message and the number of occurrences. If the same error message is triggered again, the message does not repeat, but the number of occurrences increases.

Multiple Error Message

When multiple (different) error messages are triggered, they are all displayed in the Assist tab, with a count indicating the total number of error messages.

Importing and Exporting Agent AI Configurations to support CI/CD

To address the issue of manually reconfiguring settings after each export and import of bots, we have introduced the export and import capability of Agent AI configurations via an Export API on the XO Platform. This enhancement streamlines configuration management by enabling partial exports, allowing users to select specific configurations for transfer and improving overall efficiency in managing bot settings. Learn more.

Enhanced Raw Data API

The Raw Data API is enhanced to retrieve and store summary feedback, reasons, and comments.

  • x_metadata Encoding: The “x_metadata” value must be a Base64 encoded string of the specified JSON.

v3.5.0 September 1, 2024

The earlier integration of the AgentAssist widget with Genesys supported only a single bot, which could cater to the customer service operation of a single queue or department. AgentAssist now introduces a multi-bot configuration to support multiple queues and departments simultaneously. This change significantly enhances the AgentAssist widget’s capabilities within Genesys, allowing for more comprehensive and specialized customer service management across multiple departments or service lines.

v3.4.1 August 11, 2024

Patch Release

Widget Landing Tab

The location of the Widget Landing Tab settings is changed in this update:

  • Old location: Widget Settings > Agent AI Channel Specific Settings

v3.4.0 July 27, 2024

Patch Release

The Search AI Configuration data is now saved at the bot level instead of the account level.

Enhanced Scroll Functionality in the Widget

Agent AI Enabled Dialog Tasks for Playbook Step Adherence and Triggers

To improve the usability and relevance of the Playbooks module, Agent AI now restricts the selection of dialog tasks specified only for the Playbook’s designated channel. This dialog task selection applies during trigger point creation for Dynamic Playbooks and Step Adherence within Primary Playbooks.

Feedback Reason and Comment on Summarization

The Agent AI widget’s Summary feature now offers enhanced feedback capabilities for auto-generated summaries. Agents can provide more specific and actionable feedback by selecting a reason from up to five customizable messages and adding optional comments. Administrators can edit these messages, turn the comment box on or off, and choose the feedback language. This improved feedback system allows agents to pinpoint issues with summaries more accurately, contributing to the continuous improvement of the auto-summarization feature’s accuracy and relevance over time. Learn More.

Language-specific Summarization

The Agent AI widget now supports language-specific summarization for third-party agent desktops. Admins can customize the language of automatically generated conversation summaries by selecting the Custom Dialog Task option in the Auto Summarization Model section. After choosing a preferred language, the system displays a configured dialog task for that language. The summary is then generated based on this language-specific task, allowing for more accurate and culturally appropriate summaries across different languages.

View Summary from Any Active Tab

The Agent AI widget now displays summaries more flexibly across all active tabs. When an agent closes a conversation, the summary appears on whichever tab they’re currently viewing, not just the Assist tab. This change supports the widget’s customizable layout feature, allowing agents to see summaries even if they’ve rearranged or removed certain tabs. For example, a summary can now pop up on the Search tab, enhancing the widget’s versatility and ensuring agents always have access to important conversation summaries regardless of their current view. 

Widget Layout Customization

The Agent AI widget now offers channel-specific layout customization in beta. Users can adjust language settings, menu labels, visibility controls for messages, dialog task timelines, and assist message types. The feature also allows customization of widget menu layout, assist action menu, landing tab settings, and “More” menu behavior. This flexibility enables tailoring the widget to specific channel needs and preferences. While the preview function is still in beta and may not fully reflect the final widget experience, it provides a close reference for customization options. Learn More.

Agent AI ROI Analyzer (Beta)

The Agent AI ROI Analyzer (Beta) demonstrates the financial benefits and efficiency gains from using Agent AI. Users can input historical agent data and filter the analysis by date, bots, and channels. The feature includes a Cost Savings View to display saved costs.

The feature is accessible via Agent AI > Dashboard > Agent AI ROI Analyzer (Beta). Learn More.

Entry/Exit Event Support in Third-Party Integration

These preferences can be set while creating or editing a dialog task and are available under the Triggers & Permissions tab.

When Enabled: When a dialog task is enabled for a specific channel, it is triggered automatically or manually by the agent during interaction with customers on that specific channel.

Launch Through Library

Auto-scroll Agent AI Widget Content

A new Auto-Scroll Widget Content setting is introduced to manage the auto-scroll functionality for the content in the Assist tab. Admins can enable/disable it through the Widget Settings > AgentAssist Settings > AgentAssist Channel Specific Settings page, while the Agents can access it in the AgentAssist widget > Settings tab. Between these two users, the Agents can override the Admin’s selection.

Entity-Based Summarization

Dialog tasks having “message nodes” didn’t let users customize the Conversation Summary. Hence, to let users customize the Conversation Summary, “message nodes” are replaced with “entity nodes”. To utilize this capability, admins must create dialog tasks with entity nodes and select these dialog tasks in the Auto Summarization Model > Custom Dialog Task section.

For Conversation Summary customization, select a dialog task with “entity node” in the Custom Dialog Task field.

Warm Transfer

Agent AI has introduced the Warm Transfer feature to customize the transfer functionality of the Agent AI widget. This feature specifically caters to third-party configurations, where appropriate transfer events are transmitted.

The Warm Transfer feature can be defined as a conference call between two agents and applies to both Voice and Chat channels. During this process, Agent-2 has the ability to modify the Summary Feedback, but the Run, Override, Send, Copy, Terminate, Restart, and List View buttons remain disabled until Agent-1 disconnects from the call. It has the following options to choose from:

  • Scroll up to the First Message
  • Continue from the Last Message 
  • Configure Dialog Task

Negative Feedback Settings

For better processing and accurate identification of reasons for receiving a “thumbs down”, Admins can now configure a list of negative feedback messages for agents to select. They can also include a comment box for agents to add additional comments. Admins decide whether these two options appear in the widget after agents select the “thumbs down” icon at the end of a Dialog Task and after each answer and FAQ. Additionally, Admins can change the language of the feedback messages by selecting one from the available language list.

Feedback Reason and Comment on Summarization

The Agent AI widget’s Summary feature now offers enhanced feedback capabilities for auto-generated summaries. Agents can provide more specific and actionable feedback by selecting a reason from up to five customizable messages and adding optional comments.

The Agent AI widget now supports language-specific summarization for third-party agent desktops. Admins can customize the language of automatically generated conversation summaries by selecting the Custom Dialog Task option in the Auto Summarization Model section. After choosing a preferred language, the system displays a configured dialog task for that language. The summary is then generated based on this language-specific task, allowing for more accurate and culturally appropriate summaries across different languages.

View Summary from Any Active Tab

The Agent AI widget now displays summaries more flexibly across all active tabs. When an agent closes a conversation, the summary appears on whichever tab they’re currently viewing, not just the Assist tab. This change supports the widget’s customizable layout feature, allowing agents to see summaries even if they’ve rearranged or removed certain tabs. For example, a summary can now pop up on the Search tab, enhancing the widget’s versatility and ensuring agents always have access to important conversation summaries regardless of their current view.

These preferences can be set while creating or editing a dialog task and are available under the Triggers & Permissions tab.

When Enabled: When a dialog task is enabled for a specific channel, it is triggered automatically or manually by the agent during interaction with customers on that specific channel.

Between these two users, the Agents can override the Admin’s selection.

Entity-Based Summarization

Dialog tasks having “message nodes” didn’t let users customize the Conversation Summary. Hence, to let users customize the Conversation Summary, “message nodes” are replaced with “entity nodes”.

For Conversation Summary customization, select a dialog task with “entity node” in the Custom Dialog Task field.

Agent AI has introduced the Warm Transfer feature to customize the transfer functionality of the Agent AI widget. This feature specifically caters to third-party configurations, where appropriate transfer events are transmitted.

During this process, Agent-2 has the ability to modify the Summary Feedback, but the Run, Override, Send, Copy, Terminate, Restart, and List View buttons remain disabled until Agent-1 disconnects from the call. It has the following options to choose from:

  • Scroll up to the First Message

Additionally, Admins can change the language of the feedback messages by selecting one from the available language list.
