Adding Genesys Cloud CX Messaging as a Channel

The Kore.ai XO Platform allows you to add Genesys Cloud CX Messaging  as a messaging channel for your Virtual Assistants (VAs). Genesys Cloud CX Messaging integration helps instantly share your ideas with people inside your organization with the persistent chat history feature to start a conversation with your colleagues and continue it anywhere, anytime. . 

Note: This integration works only with Genesys Cloud CX Messaging channel, not the older Genesys web chat.

With the Genesys Cloud CX Messaging channel integration on the Kore.ai XO Platform, you can achieve the following:

  • Set up the REST API and authorization flow for events and conversations.
  • Link the app to the Kore.ai XO Platform using the app’s credentials.
  • Deploy the VAs and transfer conversations to a live agent in Genesys Cloud CX Messaging platform.
  • Leverage various templates like Button, Quick Replies, and Bullets List provided by Genesys for message formatting.
  • Accept any attachments in the chat messages that Genesys supports.

After the integration, you can do the following:

  • Track Virtual Assistant conversations.
  • Listen to new messages from Genesys Cloud CX Messaging.
  • Have VAs post and respond to messages in Genesys Cloud CX Messaging conversations.
  • Have VAs handle incoming notifications from your apps into Genesys Cloud CX Messaging.

To set up Genesys Cloud CX Messaging as a channel, use your account on the Genesys Cloud Platform and enable a webhook for the platform to receive messages.

The steps to add the channel are summarized below:

  1. Create a Bot Connector and Link the Virtual Assistant to the Bot Connector
  2. Create an App in the Kore.ai Web/Mobile Client
  3. Create the OAuth Client App in the Genesys Developer Console
