CXone Agent for ACS is a single-pane-of-glass solution that uses Microsoft Azure Communication Services (ACS) as the voice path to tightly integrate Contact Center with Microsoft Teams. ACS uses the same platform as Microsoft Teams. Agents are now able to log in to CXone Agent using their Microsoft Teams email ID. Once logged in, agents can make and receive voice calls with call controls in CXone Agent.
You must configure the integration between CXone Agent and your ACS. To do so, enter the following information in Contact Center:

Previously, Integration Hub was in controlled release in Europe and the United States. In this release, it is generally available in those same regions.
Integration Hub lets you manage the integration of Contact Center with third-party authentication and web services in one secure location. Web services can include applications, platforms, and systems.
You can also use Integration Hub to work with REST API calls in Contact Center. This enables you to:
Most integration methods require you to build a new connection each time you want to use the third-party tool or service. Integration Hub lets you build one connection per application or service and then use that connection in multiple places, saving you time.

Previously, Interactions Hub was in controlled release. In this release, it is generally available.
CXone Interactions Hub provides a centralized application that simplifies contact center compliance and risk management. It uses analytics and automated workflows to identify and mitigate compliance risks.
This application secures adherence to evolving regulatory standards and enhances customer experience. It does this by unifying interactions across audio and digital channels into one seamless solution. Interactions Hub supports native and migrated calls.
The Risk Detection board in the Interactions Hub proactively scans the Contact Center environment, identifying PCI risks. These risks are shown on the dashboard, allowing you to start deleting interactions immediately or to create a Deletion policy that includes the identified interactions.
By creating policies in the Interactions Hub, you can gain control over your contact center compliance management. You configure data policies to automatically deal with known risks or those flagged by Interactions Hub in the Risk Detection board.
Whether it’s compliance adherence or internal guidelines, Interactions Hub will ensure consistent and efficient risk mitigation.

Priority-based blending routes the interaction with the highest priority to the available agent, regardless of which channel it comes from. Previously, priority-based blending included inbound voice, legacy Contact Center digital, and Personal Connection interactions. In this release, Digital Experience channels are also included in priority-based blending. This change creates a more complete priority-based blending experience.

Previously, the ability to use more than one routing attribute at the same time was in controlled release in the United States and Australia. In this release, it has become generally available in the United States, Australia, and Europe.
A routing attribute lets you narrow the pool of agents assigned to the ACD skill who are eligible to receive an interaction. For example, you could require that the agent has a certain license or certification. Multiple routing attributes let you further narrow the pool of eligible agents. For example, you could specify that an agent with the correct skill must also have a certain license and be able to speak a certain language to be eligible to receive the interaction. This gives you more control over which agents an interaction can route to without creating a lot of ACD skills.
To set up multiple routing attributes, you need to apply attributes to your agent user profiles. You then use Studio scripts to route interactions to agents based on the ACD skill and the chosen attributes. To avoid narrowing your agent pool so far that interactions become stuck in queue with no matching agents, it is best to use no more than five routing attributes per routing action.
You must have dynamic delivery enabled for your system to use multiple routing attributes.

Previously, you could use the Privacy page to request the erasure of certain contact data, like phone numbers and email addresses, to meet data protection regulations like GDPR. In this release, you can use the same process to request the erasure of Contact Center user profiles. This enhances your ability to meet data protection requirements.
Only inactive users are available for an erasure request. Once the erasure request has been successfully executed, the user is removed from the Employees page. The anonymized user is still visible on other pages, including Teams; however, the identity of the user is not recoverable.

Previously, employees remained active in Contact Center unless you manually deactivated them. In this release, employee accounts are automatically locked when they've been inactive for a predetermined amount of time. You can turn this feature off as needed.
You can choose the number of days of inactivity that will trigger the inactivity lock. You can do this at the tenant or user level:
Automatically locking inactive users leaves fewer windows of opportunity for attackers to breach your Contact Center system.

Previously, users could unlock their own accounts by clicking the Forgot your password? link on the Contact Center login page. You could not unlock user accounts for other users. In this release, you can unlock user accounts for them, whether their password was locked due to too many failed login attempts or their account was locked due to inactivity.
You can do this from the employee profile table or in a new Admin > Security > Locked Employees page. To unlock a user, you must click the actions icon in the user's row and select Unlock User. To unlock a password, you must click the actions icon in the user's row and select Unlock Password.

The Global View is created based on teams and skills, and users can request data using natural language prompts. The view is assigned in the same manner as other views currently are. If no Global View is assigned, data access remains unrestricted.

Digital Experience employs throttling to manage messaging traffic and avoid congestion.

Digital Experience employs throttling to manage messaging traffic and avoid congestion. This means that if Contact Center approaches its capacity, it reduces the speed of digital messaging to maintain the health of the system. However, the limits are generous, so reduced performance is unlikely.

Digital Experience enables early workflow loop detection. This allows Contact Center to identify if a workflow automation (WFA) job is currently running. If a workflow is already running, it stops the same action from executing again. For example, Workflow A changes the case status to Closed for resolved interactions, but Workflow B has a Before case closed trigger that sends a satisfaction survey and changes the case status from Closed back to Resolved. This creates a loop in which both workflow automations keep running. Improving loop detection helps avoid this problem and makes WFA more efficient. Loop detection also catches exceptions where workflows intentionally execute multiple times or create a cycle of actions. These exceptions are allowed to execute.

You can authenticate contacts in real time as they speak with Enlighten Autopilot. First, the contact creates a personal voiceprint, which is like their password. Then, when speaking with Autopilot, if their speech pattern matches the personal voiceprint, they are automatically authenticated. This type of authentication happens during normal conversation. As the contact begins speaking with Autopilot, they automatically pass or fail. This lets the contact skip an authentication step, improving the interaction flow and efficiency. This feature supports English, French, and German.
