On December 12, 2018, Genesys is removing the website-only method of web chat configuration. We recently released the deployment model that allows for web chat configuration from within the Genesys Cloud admin interface. This new method is more efficient and provides new options and capabilities. We ask that customers begin using the new web chat deployments when configuring web chat on their website. We will discontinue development and support of the website-only configuration option for web chat on December 5, 2018. Website-only configuration for web chat is available until the end of life date on December 5, 2018.
FAQs
Am I affected?
This deprecation affects you if you already use the website-only method of web chat configuration. Between the announcement date and the removal of the feature, Genesys will no longer address bugs or minor issues specific to this configuration option. However; we will continue to resolve any major breakage until the end of life date.
How can I prepare for this deprecation?
