Priority RoutingEnables to route the customer's request to the agent on priority, based on the customer's VIP Status. This will bypass the queue waiting.
Route Re-initiated ChatsEnables the customer to re-initiate chat to be routed on priority basis, in a case if it is disconnected abruptly. 
The system routes such chats of customers on priority who have re-initiated the chat on the same day and whose chats have been queued to the same queue.

CX 4.3 Release Limitations

Release Limitations

  • HA

    • Limitation:
      When attempting to shift an AMQ node from node A to node B and subsequently force deleting it while it was in a terminating state, we encountered an issue where the AMQ didn't properly come up on node B. The root cause of this problem was the interruption of the storage rebuilding process. In our testing environment, we tend to rapidly turn off nodes. This rapid node shutdown caused the storage to not fully rebuild before the node was turned off again.
    • Workaround:
      Allow Adequate Time for Storage Rebuilding fter bringing a node down, wait for a sufficient period, preferably 10 to 12 minutes, before turning it off again. This delay will give the storage system ample time to rebuild, reducing the likelihood of encountering issues when attempting to bring the node back up.
  • CX Voice (FreeSWITCH)
    • Limited scenarios work for multichannel cases for a customer using voice and non voice channels simultaneously. Refer to the following guide to see which scenarios work and which do not work: https://docs.expertflow.com/x/PgNoCw
    • CX Rona is not yet integrated with the CX Voice (FreeSWITCH) solution. We are instead leveraging the Ringing timeout of the FreeSWITCH to provide the RONA feature for this channel. Refer to the following doc to read more about this: https://docs.expertflow.com/x/6ARoCw
    • Direct Transfer does not work after Progressive Outbound Call.
    • Optional note and the direct transfer request sender will not be shown in the incoming request notification.
    • Silent monitoring and BargeIn feature is not yet implemented for CX Voice.(Unstable behavior if you silent monitor or barge In into active conversation of voice)
  • Instagram
    • Instagram related permissions are not yet approved due to which current testing can be done using Test Users.
    • From mobile app, user do have the option to send a Gif message but the instagram do not send this media via Webhook, due to which that Gif message will not support nor displayed on agent desk if any come via mobile app. However, the option of sending a Gif message on desktop app is not available.

    • The FB Graph API does not return the profile photo of the users commenting on the post.
    • In case of a single FB comment, some GIFs will not land on the agent's desk because of the broken payload received from Facebook.
    • When a single comment arrives on the agent's desk we can't show where it was posted because it does not contain the FB page info.
