Update Data action

ACD skills are arbitrary designations of tasks, expertise, or knowledge that someone must have to handle an interaction. A skill variable represents a Genesys Cloud ACD skill (such as a language or certification) possessed by an agent. In Architect, an ACD skill requirement routes a work item to an eligible recipient. ACD skills are established and configured by the Genesys Cloud administrator.

Add a skill variable to a task sequence

In a task sequence, you can add a skill variable to an Update Data action and then call it from a Transfer to ACD action. For example, to send the call to an agent with fluent Spanish-speaking skills or a higher level of proficiency in Windows OS.

1. From the Toolbox, expand the Data category and drag an Update Data action to the desired location in the task.
2. In the Update Data workspace, add a meaningful name to describe the item.
3. Click the Add update statement button and select ACD Skill.
4. In the Variable Name field, type the label to identify the variable on tasks.
5. In the Value To Assign field, perform one of these steps:
   • To set the value from literal mode, click the list and select the desired ACD skill.
   • To set the value using an expression, click the Expression button , select Expression, and do one of the following:
     • Add the expression inline.
     • Click the Large Expression Editor button to open the Edit Expression Editor and build your expression.
6. (Optional) To add another variable, click the Add update statement button. 
7. Add a Transfer to ACD action to the task sequence and configure it to use the skill variables you created here.

Agent scores allow you to specify the priority of preferred agents. If for example, you have agents that you prefer most, set their scores higher, and set backup agents lower. If you don't have a preference, set the score to 100.

In Architect, to influence routing you can create an agent score pair collection that supports up to 20 agent/score pairs.

An agent's score represents the agent's priority and can be from 0 to 100, with the highest score representing the most preferred agent. If you have agents that you prefer over others, set their score to 100. Set backup agents to 90. If you don't have a preference, set the score to 100. For example, assume you have a case owner who is the most preferred agent, and you have three additional backup agents. Set the case owner's score to the maximum of 100, and then set the backup agents to a lower score, such as 90.

To create an individual agent score pair value, use the MakeAgentScorePair function. For example, the following expression in a Transfer to ACD action's Preferred Agent setting creates an agent score pair collection with two agent score pairs. The first user has a score of 100 and the second has a score of 90:

MakeList(
 MakeAgentScorePair(
  FindUserById("<put_user_guid_string_here>"),
  100
 ),
 MakeAgentScorePair(
  FindUserById("<put_user2_guid_string_here>"),
  90
 )
)

You can use a MakeListAgentScorePair function that takes a collection of users along with an integer collection of scores to associate with the users. Following that method, this example generates the same value as the previous expression:

MakeListAgentScorePair(
 MakeList(
  FindUserById("<put_user_guid_string_here>"),
  FindUserById("<put_user2_guid_string_here>")
 ),
 MakeList(
  100,
  90
 )
)

To find the user ID of a user, see Edit a user's profile.

You can also use an Update Data action to assign variables. Then, use those variables to supply individual user values or user collections, an individual integer score or integer collections, and agent score pairs or collections. For more information about the MakeAgentScorePair, MakeListAgentScorePair, MakeList, FindUserById, and other functions, see Architect's Expression Help feature. Each function provides more details and examples.

Add an agent/score pair variable to a task sequence

In a task sequence, you can add an agent/score pair variable to an Update Data action.

1. From the Toolbox, expand the Data category and drag an Update Data action to the desired location in the task.
2. In the Update Data workspace, add a meaningful name to describe the item.
3. Click the Add update statement button and select AgentScorePair.
4. In the Variable Name field, type the label to identify the variable on tasks.
5. In the Value To Assign field, do one of the following:
   • To set the value using an expression add the expression inline.
   • To set the value using the Agent Score Pair builder, perform these steps:
     1. Click the Expression button  to open the Agent Score Pair builder.
     2. Click AgentScorePair.
     3. Under User, enter the agent.
        Note: If you select a literal user, system uses the FindUserById function with the user's id at runtime. If the system does not find the user, it returns a NOT_SET AgentScorePair value.
     4. Under Score, enter the numerical score.
6. (Optional) To add another variable, click the Add update statement button. 

A boolean expression can have only one of two values: true (yes) or false (no). For example, the expression "Date equal to 07/17/2014" has a value of yes (true) if the current variable's value is July 17, 2014; otherwise, it has a value of no (false). Use boolean values (or expressions that return boolean values) with If-Then-Else actions to tell  Architect how to make decisions based on two clear alternatives.

Examples

• Call.Ani=="tel:+13175551212": In this Boolean expression, the result is true if the originating phone number is 1-317-555-1212; otherwise, false.
• ToAudioTTS(If(Hour(GetCurrentDateTimeUtc()) >= 12, "Good afternoon", "Good morning")): In this expression that includes boolean values, if the current time is on or after 12:00:00 p.m., the system plays "Good afternoon" audio. Otherwise, it plays "Good morning" audio. 
  Note: In this example, the system runs the check against UTC datetime value.

You can test for only one condition with one variable, or you can test for multiple conditions with multiple variables. Each time you click Add update statement, Architect adds a variable row. If the table has more than one row, then:

• The process evaluates the conditions in top-to-bottom order as they appear in the table.
• The process uses "short-circuit evaluation." When an expression combines multiple conditions by using OR, then the whole expression is true if any of the conditions are true. Therefore, if the first condition is true, the process knows that the whole expression is true and doesn't need to evaluate any of the other conditions. As soon as the process hits a condition that is true, it stops evaluating an OR expression. On the other hand, if an expression combines multiple conditions by using AND, then the whole expression is false if even one of its conditions is false. Therefore, as soon as the process hits a condition that is false, it stops evaluating an AND expression because it knows that the whole expression is false. In either case, the process moves on to the next step.

An integer is a whole number such as 987 or 5. Use integer values to represent complete objects and processes that cannot be subdivided, such as the number of calls waiting or the number of agents on duty. An integer is an eight-byte value, which means that it can hold positive or negative numbers of practically any size. Flow runtime supports values from -999999999999999 to +999999999999999 for an Architect integer value. An integer variable has an integer value at runtime, but an expression of 999999999999999 + 1 will cause an error because the result is >999999999999999.

Genesys Predictive Engagement uses AI to predict whether a visitor will achieve a particular business objective. These business objectives are called outcomes. For each outcome you define, there is a machine learning model that evaluates a visitor's behavior against the behavior of other visitors on your website to determine the visitor's outcome score. Your organization's models are unique to you.

Each outcome score represents the likelihood that the visitor will achieve the particular business outcome, based on the actions the visitor has taken so far during the session or on other activities related to the visitor that are included in the appropriate events (for example, geolocation).

The model updates a visitor's score for each outcome in real-time, and a visitor's scores can change as they navigate your website.

If a visitor communicates with an agent, the agent can see the visitor's outcome scores while viewing the visitor's complete set of journey context data. Also, the outcome scores can trigger action maps that enhance a visitor's engagement on your site.
