27
TFN Numbers (Toll Free Numbers)
A number that starts with a toll-free area code. The charges for phone call are free for customers anywhere in the country and are paid for by the organization.
28
Chat Configurations - Key Limitations
You cannot receive calls while on chat, including from other agents. Customers and agents cannot send attachments through chat interface. Only one channel is routed at a time.
29
Async Chat
Customer can leave the chat and resume later. Total duration of contact flow cannot exceed 25 hours. Lex has a default session timeout duration of five minutes, this timeout can be increased up to 24 hrs.
30
Chat Configurations Needed
Update security profiles to allow the chat test mode. Update routing profile to permit chat channel.
31
Async Chat Implementation
Configure disconnect flow where we can add 'wait' blocks to allow customer to return. Customer is transferred to disconnect flow when agent terminates chat, implemented in flow by 'set disconnect flow' block in chat contact flow.
32
Cases
Help record the customer's issue, the steps taken to resolve the customer's issue, and the outcome. Track and manage customer issues that may require multiple contacts, follow-up tasks, or cross-team collaboration.
33
Case Templates
Forms used to create cases that ensure agents collect and reference the right information for different types of customer issues. Can have custom case fields or system case fields.
34
Case Details
All case details live in a case record (issue summary, customer info, status, timestamps, interaction history) so agents work from a single view.
35
Case Creation Methods
Created manually in the Agent Workspace, automatically by flows/Lambda, or via API.
36
Case SLA Rules
Admins can set SLA rules (e.g., resolution targets, escalation triggers) that appear in real time to agents and supervisors.
37
Amazon Connect Competitors
Centene and Genesys.
38
Contact Flows
Allow you to define the customer experience within the contact center from start to finish. Only certain blocks will be available to certain types of contact flows.
39
Contact Flow - Default Flows
There are default flows that are used by default if flow does not specify an explicit flow. For example, if you do not set a customer queue flow before a 'transfer to queue' block then you will hear the default customer queue flow.
40
Contact Flow Type - Contact Flow
Generic inbound flow. Note that it says 'inbound flow' is generic type in blog but the generic type is named 'contact flow'.
41
Contact Flow Type - Whisper Flow
The experience when the agent and customer are being connected. One-sided interaction that plays immediately before customer and agent hear each other for phone call or see each other's messages for chat. There is 'set whisper flow' block for customer and agent whisper flows, but outbound whisper flow is set in queue configuration.
42
Contact Flow Type - Customer Queue Flow
The experience when customer is in queue.
43
Contact Flow Type - Hold Flow
Invoked when an agent puts a customer on hold. One-sided interaction that plays immediately after agent presses hold on CCP and ends immediately after agent presses resume on CCP.
