Symptoms

After a conversation has ended, the Power Virtual Agents bot conversations are still showing as active on the dashboard.

Cause

Conversations for Power Virtual Agents bot can't be ended in Omnichannel for Customer Service. Therefore, they will be seen as active on the supervisor dashboard even after they've been closed.

Resolution

You can configure a context variable that will explicitly end the bot conversation in Omnichannel for Customer Service after users close the chat window. In Power Virtual Agents, create a standalone topic for the CloseOmnichannelConversation context variable with the variable property set to global. Invoke the topic in another topic that you've configured for the bot.

Though the conversation will be closed in Omnichannel for Customer Service, it won't be closed in Power Virtual Agents and appear in the Escalation rate drivers KPI in the Power Virtual Agents Analytics dashboard.
