Using the Emplifi Agent Interaction Widget

If you are configured to use Emplifi Agent Interaction, the Emplifi Agent Interaction widget displays as part of the Home Page window.

If you do not see the Emplifi Agent Interaction widget on the Home Page, you are not a member of a configuration that is set up to use Emplifi Agent Interaction. Contact your Emplifi Agent Administrator for assistance.

The Emplifi Agent Interaction widget has three views:

  • When you sign in to Emplifi Agent, the widget headset icon displays on the lower-right side of the Home Page.

    The headset displays differently based on your status. For more information about statuses, see Setting Your Status. When a call comes in, you will see and hear the headset icon jingle. If Emplifi Agent is not the active window, the following dialog box will display.

  • When you click the headset icon, the Interaction Panel will display.

  • When you click the open/close button, the widget will fully expand to display the Select Interactions view.
