A new contact email or voice interaction
Prerequisites: External Contacts > Identify > Promote permission
SCV captures identifier information and displays it in the Suggestion box.
Because the identifier information does not include the contact’s name, SCV displays No Name above the identifier.
With an outbound email interaction, the name can be undefined.
With an inbound email interaction, SCV can detect and populate the name in the Suggestion box.
To create a new contact, click Add to Contacts.

Voice interaction

A web messaging interaction
A web messaging interaction does not have a related email address or phone number. SCV uses a web ID to create a temporary or ephemeral contact.
Because the identifier information does not include the contact’s name, SCV does not display a name, and then saves the web ID with the ephemeral contact. The web ID does not appear.
To save the contact, click Add to contacts. Then, enter the customer’s information and click Save.
Note: Enter the first name and the last name.

Callback and campaign interactions
SCV does not currently support campaign callbacks and campaigns. Single customer view automatically populates the phone number in the search box and automatically searches for the contact during campaign callbacks and campaigns. The agent can now select an existing contact or create a new contact with the phone number of the campaign. The single customer view makes it easier for the agents to manually add the interaction to the correct contact. The customer conversation data does not appear in the Journey tab.
To search for a contact, in the Search for a Contact field, type the name of the contact and then select it from the results.
