Browser extensions in a Genesys Cloud environment
Browser extensions are required within the Genesys Cloud environment in order to send live callers automatically to a survey without any agent intervention. There are three main browser extensions used to automate the call center process and transfer to surveys: the standard Genesys extension, the native UI Genesys extension, and the embeddable framework extension. All three browser extensions automatically send callers to surveys, but they work in different ways.
Standard Genesys Extension
The standard Genesys extension uses a hidden Transfer to Survey button. When the agent presses the End Call button, the caller is automatically transferred to a survey. This is the most common browser extension used by Mindful Feedback clients.
Native UI Genesys Extension
The native UI Genesys extension is for clients who have a limited version of Genesys that does not allow agent scripts, and therefore are not able to use the standard Genesys extension. This is the least commonly used extension.
Genesys Cloud Embeddable Framework
Genesys Cloud Embeddable Framework allows the client to have agents working directly in their own systems (generally a CRM) and using a Genesys Softphone. In this case, the transfer to the survey is automated to a specific secure call flow, or inbound call flow that is defined in the options of the browser extension, as shown in the example below.
If a client is using an embeddable framework and is having issues with surveys transferring, it is most likely due to an error in the Queue ID/Secure Flow ID field shown above. They may have entered an incorrect ID or have a spelling error.
If a client is still having issues with surveys transferring after checking the Queue ID/Secure Flow ID:
- Make sure that the correct browser extension is installed on each agent's computer (see list of browser extensions below). If an extension needs to be added, a full restart of the browser will be necessary.
- If agents are using more than one Genesys tool (i.e. Genesys Cloud Agent Desktop and Embeddable Framework), having both tools open at the same time may cause issues with surveys transferring.
The list of applications that use the Embeddable Framework (EF) is as follows:
- Genesys Cloud for Salesforce
- Genesys Cloud for Zendesk
- Genesys Cloud Embeddable Framework
