Install WebAgent Service

The WebAgent Service is used for communication between the WebAgent FrontEnd and Anywhere365 components. This installation is not the installation of the WebAgent FrontEnd itself which is globally hosted and managed by Anywhere365.

Note

An additional Anywhere365 WebAgent license is required.

Prerequisites

  • EventForwarder Plugin installed and configured for WebAgent, see: Installing Event Forwarder Plugin

  • ApiPlugin installed and configured, see: Install API plugin

  • DC2023.03 or lower: CallControls Plugin installed and configured, see: Install Call Controls plugin

    Important

    Please note that as of DC2023.04 or higher, the CallControls Plugin is no longer needed as a separate plugin as its features have been integrated into the ApiPlugin. You may safely remove any associated settings or configurations related to this plugin. Dialogue Cloud will remove the settings if a bundle upgrade has been requested through the Partner Portal.

  • ListsPlugin installed and configured, Install Lists plugin

Installation

Validate Plugin Settings

Note

Required settings fields will be automatically added in your SharePoint lists after requesting this feature. Some, like ConnectionString will need to be completed ASAP with your valid credentials.

  1. Open the UCC A Unified Contact Center, or UCC, is a queue of interactions (voice, email, IM, etc.) that are handled by Agents. Each UCC has its own settings, IVR menus and Agents. Agents can belong to one or several UCCs and can have multiple skills (competencies). A UCC can be visualized as a contact center “micro service”. Customers can utilize one UCC (e.g. a global helpdesk), a few UCC’s (e.g. for each department or regional office) or hundreds of UCC’s (e.g. for each bed at a hospital). They are interconnected and can all be managed from one central location. Config page on SharePoint
