Administrators can now enable free seating for their organizations. With free seating, when agents go offline, Genesys Cloud releases their stations for other agents to use. For more information, see Turn on free seating.

Communicate

 USB-based Edge pairing

Telephony administrators can now pair Edge devices from a secured payload file stored on a USB flash drive that delivers pairing, network configuration, proxy settings, and encryption details to the device. For more information, see Pair the Edge using a USB flash drive and Genesys Cloud. This feature requires Edge and Media Tier version 1.0.0.6082 or later.
