Series: Create a call flow
Build a task in the flow
Careful consideration should be taken when planning and building a sequence of actions in the task editor. These task actions are available from the Architect Toolbox.
This Genesys Cloud feature is not available to users from the PureConnect and Genesys Engage platforms. Users from those platforms can supplement or replace their platform’s workforce engagement features with the robust and scalable features available in Genesys Cloud. For more information about how customers from those platforms use Genesys Cloud features, see the Genesys Cloud Workforce Engagement for PureConnect Solution Guide and the Genesys Engage cloud User Guide.

These articles are designed to help the flow author build a task sequence. Administrators and editors can create and manage tasks.
