Configure Omnichannel with Power Pages site copilot

Omnichannel empowers enterprises to instantly connect and engage with their customers via live chat. If the copilot is unable to resolve their queries or if they require a response beyond the site's programmed capabilities, the site copilot facilitates a seamless transition to a live agent for assistance.

Prerequisites

  • Add a copilot to your site in Power Pages design studio.
  • Install Dynamics 365 customer service app in the environment where the site is created.
