Blended
Digital and voice share the person
How agents move between inbound, autodial, and outbound without lying to the dialer.
Blended operations and autodial ยท advanced ยท 12 min full read
The outbound page says the dialer works with inbound digital engagement, and Agent Desktop Plus is the screen where voice, digital, and context are meant to meet. A blend that is only a voice story misses chat and email sitting on the same login.
- Include digital in the blend
- Check antivirus when text disappears
Antivirus products can block digital text from loading. The technical requirements name that failure. A 'blend' that cannot show the chat is a desktop failure, not a skill failure.
Digital still consumes the agent.

Sister technologies. Statistics and Reporting web services. Two different API names. A wallboard and a standard report are different pipes. APIs and SDKs
Config. Add chat to the steal rule you wrote earlier.
Troubleshooting. Plus is licensed and unused. The dialer sees them as voice-idle while they type. Use the desktop that was supposed to hold both, and staff from real availability.
Cross-platform bridge. A mapping to another PBX or contact center is a teaching bridge. It is not an import button.
Future hook. The guide's cloud endpoint stays unset. Confirm before relying on a dated catalog or a case-study number.
