Evaluate Schedule Group action in chat flow

Dear all,

I have a question regarding the Evaluate Schedule Group Action in Chat flow.

We are using Genesys Webchat v2, and I need to check whether the CRC is open or closed, then send a message using a chat flow to customers.

I noticed whenever I changed the opening hours defined in my schedules, it is working fine for inbound call flow, but in inbound chat flow, it seems it doesn't change in real time.

When I use the Evaluate Schedule Action in chat flow, it works fine and got updated immediately.

Customer Care confirms some configurations are cached for a period of time. I confirm after runnig several tests, after about 5 min the Schedule Group applied the changes I've made.

So, here are my questions :

  • Why when using only Evaluate Schedule Action , whenever I make a change, it is considered and applied in real time in my chat flow ? there is no cache for this use case ?

  • I confirm, after runing several tests with the Evaluate Schedule Group Action, the changes wre applied only after 5min . it seems the cache comes into play for this use case ?

  • Is there any documentation that point out to this cache, I just want to make sure this is an expected behaviour when it comes to chat flows. I need to warn supervisors to make sure they make the changes not at the last minutes to avoid problems.

Thank you in advance for your help and clarification !

Regards,

CHARAF

I unfortunately don't know.

I'm not aware of this caching behavior being documented anywhere. You can request new features and documentation improvements at https://genesyscloud.ideas.aha.io/.
