{{NoteFormat|The global bus object is a debugging tool. When implementing Widgets on your own site, do not use the global bus object to register your custom plugins. Instead, see {{Link-SomewhereInThisManual|topic=GWCBusExtensions|anchor=top|display text=Widgets Extensions}} for more information about extending Genesys Widgets.|1}}

Overview

WebChatService exposes high-level API access to Genesys chat services, so you can monitor and modify a chat session on the front end, or develop your own custom WebChat widgets. Compared to developing a custom chat UI and using the chat REST API, WebChatService dramatically simplifies integration—improving the reliability, feature set, and compatibility of every widget on the bus.

Usage

WebChatService and the matching WebChat widget work together right out of the box and they share the same configuration object. Using WebChat uses WebChatService.

You can also use WebChatService as a high-level API using bus commands and events to build your own WebChat widget or other UI features based on WebChatService events.

Namespace

The WebChat Service plugin has the following namespaces tied up with each of the following types:

Type Namespace
Configuration webchat
CXBus—API commands & API events WebChatService

Customization

WebChatService has many configuration options but no customization options. It is a plug-and-play plugin and works as is.

Configuration

WebChat and WebChatService share the _genesys.widgets.webchat configuration namespace. WebChat contains the UI options and WebChatService contains the connection options.

Important
Starting with version 9.0.008.04, WebChatService allows you to choose between the types of chat services available in Genesys via the transport section configuration options.

Example

// When using GMS API 

window._genesys.widgets.webchat = {

	apikey: 'n3eNkgxxxxxxxxxxxx8VA',
	dataURL: 'https://api.genesyscloud.com/gms-chat/2/chat',
	enableCustomHeader: true,

	userData: {},
	emojis: true,
	actionsMenu: true,

	autoInvite: {

		enabled: false,
		timeToInviteSeconds: 10,
		inviteTimeoutSeconds: 30
	},

	chatButton: {

		enabled: true,
		template: '<div>CHAT NOW</div>',
		effect: 'fade',
		openDelay: 1000,
		effectDuration: 300,
		hideDuringInvite: true
	}
};

// When using PureEngage v3 API

window._genesys.widgets.webchat = {

	emojis: true,
	userData: {},
	transport: {

		type: 'pureengage-v3-rest',
		dataURL: https://<hostname>/nexus/v3/chat/sessions,
		endpoint: 'xxxxxxxxx',
		headers: {
			'x-api-key': 'xxxxxxxx'
		},
		async: {

			enabled: true, 

			getSessionData: function(sessionData, Cookie, CookieOptions) {

				// Note: You don't have to use Cookies. You can, instead, store in a secured location like a database.
				Cookie.set('customer-defined-session-cookie', JSON.stringify(sessionData), CookieOptions);
			},

			setSessionData: function(Open, Cookie, CookieOptions) {

				// Retrieve from your secured location.
				return Cookie.get('customer-defined-session-cookie');
			}
		},

	chatButton: {

		enabled: true,
		template: '<div>CHAT NOW</div>',
		effect: 'fade',
		openDelay: 1000,
		effectDuration: 300,
		hideDuringInvite: true
	}
};

Options

<tabber> GMS API=

Name Type Description Default Required Introduced / Updated
apikey string Apigee Proxy secure token. n/a Yes, if using Apigee Proxy
endpoint string Manually select the endpoint to initiate chat on. n/a n/a
dataURL string (URL) URL for GMS REST chat service. If cometD.enabled is set to true, this property will be ignored. n/a Always
enableCustomHeader boolean Enables the use of the custom authorization header defined in _genesys.widgets.main.header static config. Attaches the custom authorization header to all WebChatService request. false No 9.0.002.06
userData object Arbitrary attached data to include when initiating a chat. {} n/a
ajaxTimeout number Number of milliseconds to wait before AJAX timeout. 3000 n/a
xhrFields object Allows you to set the properties for the AJAX xhrFields object (for example, {withCredentials: false}). {withCredentials: false} n/a
pollExceptionLimit number Number of successive poll exceptions (chat server offline) before WebChatService publishes 'chatServerWentOffline'. 5 n/a
restoreTimeout number Number of milliseconds before restore timeout. Prevents the chat session from restoring after a certain time away from the session (for example, user navigated to a different site during chat and never ended the session). 60000

Localization

WebChatService doesn't have any localization options.

API Commands

Once you've registered your plugin on the bus, you can call commands on other registered plugins. Here's how to use the global bus object to register a new plugin on the bus.

Important
The global bus object is a debugging tool. When implementing Widgets on your own site, do not use the global bus object to register your custom plugins. Instead, see Widgets Extensions for more information about extending Genesys Widgets.
var oMyPlugin = window._genesys.widgets.bus.registerPlugin('MyPlugin');

oMyPlugin.command('WebChatService.getAgents');
Important
Starting with version 9.0.008.04, WebChatService allows you to choose between the types of chat API services available in Genesys via the transport section configuration options. For more information, see the “Options” table in WebChatService Configuration.

configure

Internal use only. The main App plugin shares configuration settings to widgets using each widget’s configure command. The configure command can only be called once at startup. Calling configure again after startup may result in unpredictable behavior.

startChat

Initiates a new chat session with the chat server via GMS or with the service configured under transport section. For use by WebChat widgets only. You must not invoke this manually.

Example

oMyPlugin.command('WebChatService.startChat', {

	nickname: 'Jonny',
	firstname: 'Johnathan',
	lastname: 'Smith',
	email: 'jon.smith@mail.com',
	subject: 'product questions',
	userData: {}

}).done(function(e){

	// WebChatService started a chat successfully

}).fail(function(e){

	// WebChatService failed to start chat
});

Options

Option Type Description
nickname string Chat Entry Form Data: 'nickname'.
firstname string Chat Entry Form Data: 'firstname'.
lastname string Chat Entry Form Data: 'lastname'.
email string Chat Entry Form Data: 'email'.
subject string Chat Entry Form Data: 'subject'.
userData object Arbitrary data to attach to the chat session (AKA attachedData). Properties defined here will be merged with default userData set in the configuration object.

Resolutions

Status When Returns
resolved When server confirms session started (AJAX Response Object)
rejected When a chat session is already active 'There is already an active chat session'
rejected When AJAX exception occurs (AJAX Response Object)
rejected When server exception occurs (AJAX Response Object)
rejected When userData is invalid 'malformed data object provided in userData property'

endChat

Ends the chat session with the chat server via GMS or with the service configured under transport section. For use by WebChat widgets only. You must not invoke this manually.

Example

oMyPlugin.command('WebChatService.endChat').done(function(e){

	// WebChatService ended a chat successfully

}).fail(function(e){

	// WebChatService failed to end chat
});

Resolutions

Status When Returns
resolved When active session is ended successfully (AJAX Response Object)
rejected If no chat session is currently active 'There is no active chat session'

sendMessage

Sends a message from the client to the chat session. For use by WebChat widgets only. You must not invoke this manually.

Example

oMyPlugin.command('WebChatService.sendMessage', {message: 'hi'}).done(function(e){

	// WebChatService sent a message successfully

}).fail(function(e){

	// WebChatService failed to send a message
});

Options

Option Type Description
message string The message you want to send

Resolutions

Status When Returns
resolved When message is successfully sent (AJAX Response Object)
rejected If no message text provided 'No message text provided'
rejected If no chat session is currently active 'There is no active chat session'
rejected When AJAX exception occurs (AJAX Response Object)

sendCustomNotice

Sends a custom notice from the client to the chat server. This request is used to deliver any custom notification between a custom client application and a custom agent desktop. Neither Genesys Widgets, nor Workspace use this out of the box.

Example

oMyPlugin.command('WebChatService.sendCustomNotice', {message: 'bye'}).done(function(e){

	// WebChatService sent a custom message successfully

}).fail(function(e){

	// WebChatService failed to send a custom message
});

Options

Option Type Description
message string A message you want to send along with the custom notice

Resolutions

Status When Returns Introduced / Updated
resolved When message is successfully sent (AJAX Response Object)
rejected When AJAX exception occurs (AJAX Response Object)
rejected When the server doesn't support receiving custom notices This transport doesn't support sendCustomNotice command. 9.0.008.04

sendTyping

Sends a 'customer typing' notification to chat session. A visual indication will be shown to agent. For use by WebChat widgets only. You must not invoke this manually.

Example

oMyPlugin.command('WebChatService.sendTyping').done(function(e){

	// WebChatService sent typing successfully

}).fail(function(e){

	// WebChatService failed to send typing
