Assign scripts to channels

An 8x8 Contact Center chat script defines the behavior from the time a website visitor enters the website, initiates and completes a chat. For details on chat scripts, refer to Create a Chat Script. For a chat channel to be operational, 8x8 Contact Center administrators must link it to a chat script that defines the chat flow process.

You can assign a script to the channel in 8x8 Configuration Manager in two ways:

From the scripts page

  1. From the Configuration Menu, open Scripts.
  2. Go to a media tab, such as Phone, Email, or Chat.
  3. Select a script from the list, and double-click to open.
  4. In the Properties tab, click Assigned Channels.
    The list of existing channels appears.
  5. Select a desired channel, and click Assign.

From the channels page
