What's New
All Google Fonts API references have been removed as part of version 9.0.017.33, and Widgets now refers to Google Fonts from the Genesys Hosted Repository when the main.downloadGoogleFont configuration option is set to
true
. As customers are unable to upgrade to the 9.0.017.33 version without a change in their configuration, the configuration propertymain.googleFontUrl
has been introduced to provide customers with the option to select the closest region URL where the Genesys web fonts are securely hosted. Note: By default, Genesys web fonts are loaded from the North America (East) region. (CXW-302)
