Feature coming soon: Updated email UI

When you reply to an email message, you can attach a file to send with the email reply. Email interactions support many types of files; however, you cannot send certain types of files through email interactions. For a full list of unsupported file types, see Unsupported Attachment Types.

Keep the following notes in mind:

  • Genesys Cloud uses base64 to encode messages and attachments.
    • The maximum outgoing encoded message size, including attachments, is 40 MB.
    • You can send links to larger documents stored in Genesys Cloud Documents.
    • For more information about sharing a file from Documents, see About Documents and Share a file.
  • If your organization uses a custom SMTP server integration, Genesys Cloud adheres to the maximum allowable size that you set on your SMTP server--up to 40 MB. You must set this value when you configure your SMTP server in Genesys Cloud.
  • The maximum incoming message size, including attachments: 30 MB per message (after base64 encoding).
