What’s new in Unified Service Desk 1.2.0

System customizers and developers will be able to leverage the following enhancements and new capabilities in this release:

Integration with Parature knowledge management

Unified Service Desk now provides enhanced knowledge management capabilities through integration with Parature, from Microsoft that enables your service agents to easily search for the most accurate and up-to-date knowledge base articles in Parature from within Unified Service Desk, associate an article with a case, and share the information in the article with customers over various channels such as web, chat, email, or phone. Use the new KM Control type of hosted control to display relevant knowledge base articles from Parature from within Unified Service Desk.
