Business value

Enable business to offer a seamless single sign-on experience for live chat and Power Virtual Agents bot integration.

Feature details

Single sign-on for live chat in Omnichannel for Customer Service and Power Virtual Agents creates a seamless sign-in experience for users who are interacting with a chatbot through the live chat widget. This feature will enable the following capabilities:

  • Power Virtual Agents bots can authenticate users while engaged over a live chat conversation, allowing for a more secure and robust experience with a chatbot.
  • Authentication context is shared between Power Virtual Agents and live chat. If your user is authenticated by one system, they are authenticated in both.
  • An unauthenticated live chat conversation can be started and continue as authenticated after the user signs in.
