Agents randomly going into Not Responding status without being alerted to an Interaction and other oddities

  • 1.  Agents randomly going into Not Responding status without being alerted to an Interaction and other oddities

    Posted 04-09-2025 12:41

    Hi all,

    We do have an open case with Care on these issues, but curious if anyone else out there has experienced this behavior. For us, this seemingly started happening recently (within last few months) and growing in number of reported issues.

    The behavior we are seeing is randomly our agents are showing to be On Queue (from within their Genesys Cloud browser session) while Interactions in their Queue are waiting and they aren't getting offered. If these agents check the Agent Status dashboard, it may show them in another status such as Meeting. Most of the time the agent can simply refresh their browser and then an Interactions is indeed offered.

    The biggest challenge here is the agent sits there thinking they are On Queue and if they aren't paying attention, Interactions stack up and they never get offered.

    Another related issue is at random times, the agent will go from an On Queue Status to Not Responding, but the agent never receives an Interaction alerting/offered alert. We can also find no evidence in Performance Views of any Interaction alerting the agent to cause them to go into Not Responding. We do however see that the agent did indeed get placed into Not Responding status. It's like phantom interactions being offered, but never presented to the agent nor can we find them in performance views.

    It is like the agents status isn't in sync at all times or Genesys Cloud isn't honoring their current status. We do have a screenshot or two as evidence of this behavior, which is kind of hard to believe or even explain without seeing it.

    Anyone experienced similar behavior or have any suggestions?

    As always, thanks all!

    One of my agents began reporting this same issue yesterday afternoon.

    Thanks for the reply Iann.

    If you happen to learn of more agents reporting it or discover the likely issue, please share here, if possible. It is rather odd. 

    We had one agent yesterday send us a screenshot showing him as On Queue, the Agent Status widget in his dashboard shows him in a Meeting status and calls are waiting in his queue. He had to close a Performance View tab in his Genesys client and then one of the waiting calls got delivered. That is one specific example, we have quite a few others.

    We ended up discovering the cause of our issue. This particular agent's Phone was set to a "Test Phone" instead their default WebRTC. Not sure how this happened but their functionality was immediately restored.

    Hey Shane,

    I have seen this happen before and it typically happens when there is an issue with the traffic coming to or leaving Genesys Cloud. If you have made any recent changes to your network, I would recommend rolling them back. We recommend that all traffic related to Genesys Cloud be bypassed or whitelisted.

    If you can post the case number that you have opened with Customer Care, I can help monitor the progress on my end as well.

    We have seen both issues here and there, for the not being able to find the calls that were not responded, I would look at the queue level interactions and you should be able to see the agents name associated with a call that they missed.   Our agents have shown us video of them being On Queue and not being able to pick up, which was then putting them in Not Responding, this has been raised here many times, but never a great answer to prevent it then it goes away for a while.    We have agents re-boot and in most cases it works, but not ideal because it usually happens to multiple agents at a time.

    We have also seen where the agent is On Queue, calls are waiting and it is not routing to them, get to make sure they are active first, then taking them off queue and putting them on queue may work, last resort reboot.    I have not seen the inactive issue in a while, as a matter of fact I did have an agent active and they were still able to get calls, so perhaps that does not happen any longer.  (?)

    Hi everyone,

    We've been experiencing a lot of similar issues in our implementations across various regions and with different types of setups, such as BYOC Cloud trunks and Premises Edges. This has been both frustrating and problematic.

    Like you, we've opened cases and worked through them, but without a conclusive resolution. We've been told it's either a "problem with reaching DNS," a "client issue," or simply that "everything appears normal." At one point, support even suggested using a time machine to revert to the previous version, but unfortunately, that didn't help.

    It seems like a systemic issue with how the client handles calls globally, as it's occurring across different regions and deployment models.

    I wish I could say the problems are resolved and no longer recurring, but that's not the case. I'm sharing my experience in the hope that someone will endeavor to make improvements in the product.

    We haven't seen this recently but we did early on in our Genesys implementation.  One thing our partner suggested was ensuring pop ups were allowed and to ensure Ad Blockers were not installed on the users browser of choice.  Since we suggested that to our end users we haven't heard to much about this situation happening.

    Hi!

    The times this issue occurred were related to network issues.
    When it happens, try running WebRTC Diagnostics in Calls > Settings > Run Diagnostics.

    Marek, is this issue happening with remote users while connected to their home network? 

    We are experiencing this since last week. I have opened a ticket with our vendor.

    Thanks,

    No, while connected at the office. The two events we identified:
    1 - We attributed to a mass update that was performed outside of the scheduled time, which restarted the PCs and also caused high network usage by the antivirus.
    2 - In the other case, we identified packet loss on the network, which we enter an incidentabout to our internet provider.

    Could be a coincidence too...

    Steph, sounds very similar to our situation. We are getting this specific issue since afternoon of 5/7. Home network users as well as users connected via VPN and remote sites. Working with support on this issue, but wanted to let you know we are in the same boat.

    All,

    We are still chasing this issue as well internally here. This is still very intermittent as mentioned before and we are not able to recreate on-demand. We continue to work with support/care and also internally. Internally we plan to gather more Zscaler logs, deploy AppNeta endpoint monitoring to further assist. 

    Our users are working mostly from home and using Zscaler VPN. We are totally bypassing the VPN for media services such as RTP and STUN (our regions CIDR range for media services). We are not bypassing for 443 traffic due to the large number of AWS IP ranges that are in scope and our security team does not want to bypass. We do have SSL packet inspection turned off for our Genesys Cloud regions domain, but it seems at times, I see traffic hitting specific AWS IP's and not the regions domain and we suspect this traffic getting inspected may be leading to our issue. (just a hunch and may not be correct)

    Long story short, the mystery continues and we continue to dig-in. If we are able to shed light using AppNeta or by setting up a mirrored port to try and determine what is happening, I'll share back w this thread.

    Due to how infrequent it occurs, trying to get a console/network log from the agent is almost impossible. Sorry to report we have no solid answers here yet.

    Thanks all, appreciate everyone's feedback!

    Hi @Judy Kerbel, @Shane Jenkins and everyone else in this thread that posted.
    Thank you for sharing your feedback.

    We've also observed a significant increase in "not responding" interactions since last week, beginning on Sunday, May 4th, and escalating since Wednesday. Like you, we're collaborating with one client setup similar to the one Shane described, but we're facing challenges in capturing the necessary logs at the right time-it often feels like a game of guessing and trying. 

    It seems that this problem might be occurring at a global or platform level. We've noticed that it's not confined to a single organization, region, or deployment type. Both On-Premises and BYOC Cloud deployments are affected, suggesting a possible issue with the Web-RTC client.

    Support team noted in the ticket that there's no Jingle proceed from the agent, despite auto-answer being enabled on the user's profile, but theyhaven't reached a conclusion yet.

    Let's continue sharing our experiences. Thank you all for your contributions.

    Best regards,

    We also opened a case with support last week as we saw a huge increase of agents reporting similar issues both working in Salesforce with openCTI and other agents working in the native Geneus Gui with webRTC  with the client not responding when they try to answer a call.

    For us, A few a few months ago we had an issue where upon login, that genesy would not see that audio permission were granted.
    This was only an issue on the first login after restart, and would go away after the user refreshed, and there would be no issues the rest of the day.
    If they did not refresh, the system would send them a call but not allow them to answer it, so they would go into not responding.
    We alos noticed that if agents did not restart their computers, this error would not occur on their first daily login

    Genesys has still not solved that issue.

    However like a lot of you it seems, we are now seeing an increase in random throughout the day not respondings starting last week.
    Nice (but akso disheartening) to see we are not alone.

    We have a mixture of in office and remote agents.
    We use WebRTC.

    Has anyone received any useful information from open support cases?

    Have others tried TIme Machine to revert back to 11.50 or 11.51? Has this helped your users. We have seen some improvement when we try this on a limited number of users but it is not a feasible workaround as it is required for to be rerun every time a user logs on.

    @Jason Kleitz Has Genesys determined root cause? Is there a fix in the works? Is there an ETA for a fix.

    Our customers are VERY frustrated. Our customer call volume will significantly increase over the next few weeks/months and having agents go into 'not responding' and not be able to answer calls is a major issue.

    Our investigation is ongoing.

    We checked for Microphone availability (ensure always allowed) and browser tab sleep mode

    Further we currently changed the settings for persistent timer for several user.

    Standard 600 changed for several to 14400 and another group is disabled.  Will take a few days to see if this does change any.

    If anyone might try to confirm / check

    Hello all,

    If you did not check out this Resource Center article, I would highly recommend checking with your Network Team to make sure that your organization made the appropriate changes for the CIDR expansion. Based on reading some of the responses in this thread and checking with some of our internal conversations, some of the issues may be related to the CIDR expansion rollout.

    We started experincing the issue last Wednesday (5/7) afternoon as well. We made the changes for CIDR back in October and running the network test shows its passing and not seeing any issues with the network tests. Its been intermittent for us, users on and off our VPN, on and off Wi-Fi. 

    Is anyone experiencing the issue also do the rollout for the Multi-Context Pane?

    That seems a little misinformed on part of whoever stated the issue is not widespread. Search for "Not Responding" in the community and there are many, many posts about this issue. I think the possible reason there are not many support tickets open is because, like others have stated in this thread, those tickets never end up with a resolution. It usually ends with repeated requests for the same console/network logs or with just being told the issue is on the customer side.

    Hello everyone for their contributions and @Judy Kerbel @Matthew Pleus @John Bonfanti pointing what we try to achieve

    I completely agree with your observations. We have opened a ticket for each organization experiencing these issues to increase visibility. However, support engineers are consistently responding with, "We are not seeing an increase in problems, neither in your organizations nor globally," which simply does not reflect the reality we're facing.

    I understand that the support team is trying to manage their tasks, but as you mentioned, this situation explains why many partners and clients have stopped opening tickets altogether, seeing it as an exercise in futility and wasting time.

    Furthermore, it is frustrating that with every update in ticket and also here in thread, they reference the article about CIDR expansion, even though all tests in previous months were successful. Some of our clients aren't even filtering IP addresses, merely the ports, yet they keep receiving the same announcement. It's clear that this issue spans different organizations and implementation types, despite all the checks and tests conducted previously.

    I believe it would be beneficial if more of us submit official tickets, ideally highlighting the significant increase in "Not Responding" conversations in the subject line.

    This issue also presents challenges for us, as competitors are using it as a leverage point. It is imperative that the problem at least receives acknowledgment, with a view to a potential solution.

    Best regards,

    Hi Judy,

    We have the added wonder of being managed by a Service Provider, so the only way for us to Log a Support Case is to escalate to QPC, who then log a support case on our behalf.

    The problem we have is there is no Agent Status report, to show agents being placed into Not Responding.

    And then when you manage to snag some data, the response is, "Oh, the agent must have taken themselves off the queue"

    The agents are the one's coming to us, they won't report themselves if they were doing the wrong thing,

    But because QPC blame agents (it's easier than actually investigating), they won't log a ticket.

    I miss our old System where higher level users got direct access to the support portal. and 90% of the tickets logged were responded to within 48 hours.

    We have found that in agent status you can add the column 'not responding'. In Interactions view you can add a filter for 'not responding'. This has given us additional visibility into the issue, frequency of occurrence, and increase in occurrences since first week of May.

    We have never gotten a good response either, but I am curious about your comment about Agent Status and Not Responding, I do see the Not Responding on my report, however, it is listed as On Queue time, which I do not believe is correct.  If they are not able to pick up calls how can that calculate as On Queue time?   Just curious about what you are seeing.

    Hello all,

    I've been digging into this a bit more. If you are using a Chromium based browser (such as Chrome or Edge), could you see if using Firefox helps alleviate the issue? There may have been an issue with Chromium that has been fixed and not rolled out yet for those web browsers.

    We would like to know this as well - Since we are also limited by policy's which only allow Edge as a browser.

    With care it always ends up the same way. Keep requesting logs over and over again before this always ends up being a customer network issue.

    Hello,

    Based on the info that I've seen, this appears to be an issue with Chromium and not Genesys and should now be fixed with the most recent version of the browser update. The update should also be out for the Edge browser as well.

    Is this Chromium update expected to rollout to the app version as well, and if so, when?

    Interesting, we had a consultant who claimed that as soon as every call finished, the system was putting her in Meal Break Status, she had to manually put herself in available after each call. Problem is it was occuring from 19:40 - 23:00 on a night shift when no-one was here, and it didn't occur again.

    So we never put a ticket, because it was something so random!.

    We have this issue few times a week for different agents. Up until now, we've consistently been asked for network and console logs. However, due to the intermittent nature of the issue, capturing logs precisely when the problem occurs has been extremely challenging.  

    Previously, we were informed that the issue stemmed from the agents' network connection. To address this, I advised our agents to fully log out of Genesys and shut down their PCs each day, hoping this would refresh the connection as some agents put their devices to sleep after their shifts ends.

    Additionally, we transitioned all our agents to a persistent connection in an effort to improve the responsiveness issue.

    We've been seeing this issue on our end as well. Agents are set to auto answer calls but sometimes the alert will timeout, resulting for the interaction to be offered to another agent. Then, the previous agent's status will suddenly change to "Not Responding."

    We have seen a similar issue at our organization (US West region). We noticed it today, but now seeing others have had the same issues it appears we aren't the only ones so I'm adding my name to the list. Who knows how long this has been happening with it not being caught by us. A ticket was opened with Genesys to investigate.

    Hello,

    We're experiencing the same issue in our operation, using Genesys Cloud integrated with Salesforce.

    Agents with Auto-Answer enabled are going into "Not Responding" status without ever being alerted to an incoming interaction. We opened a ticket, and after some investigation, we identified that browser tab sleep behavior was interfering with WebRTC session readiness.

    Specifically, when the Salesforce tab is not in focus, the browser may suspend it, preventing media initialization and blocking the Auto-Answer trigger.

    As a mitigation, we implemented GPO policies to exclude the Salesforce and Genesys Cloud domains from tab suspension in Chrome, Edge, and Firefox. We're still monitoring the results over the next few days. 

    Has anyone here tried similar adjustments, or found other effective solutions?

    We continue to investigate the randomness we are seeing. So far still nothing solid/concrete.

    I do have a question for those of you have have GPO in place for sleeping tabs (we mostly use Chrome and Edge. What logic/entries are you adding via GPO to help avoid sleeping tabs?

    I primarily am asking because I've seen two different entries for Genesys Cloud and Chrome. I'm not sure if we should use both or as long as we have one or the other, we should be good? We are FedRAMP, so use2 is our region.

    Example 1: (Per Genesys document in resource center) https://help.mypurecloud.com/articles/disable-your-browsers-sleep-mode-setting/

    use2.us-gov-pure.cloud

    Example 2: (https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/url-patterns/) This approach uses [*.] in front of the region / domain

    [*.]use2.us-gov-pure.cloud 

    Any suggestions or evidence you may have on which logic above we truly need to apply? 

    Thanks again,

    Hello @Shane Jenkins,

    We had the same doubt regarding the GPO patterns.

    In our case, we went with the more inclusive wildcard format: [*.]mypurecloud.com and [*.]salesforce.com
    (we're not on FedRAMP, so adjust to use2.us-gov-pure.cloud if that applies).

    We applied the policies under both SleepingTabsBlockedForUrls and AutoDiscardExceptions settings for Chrome and Edge.

    No definitive results yet, but we did see a reduction in "No screen pop due to not being the primary tab." events. Still monitoring but so far we have not seen any improvements.

    We experience this for about 3% of our calls shown Not Responsive on Global User Base. Office and Home Office and autoanswer as well manual accept. One finding was that the microphone became unavailbale hence the WebRTC request was directly taken back. We are looking for such events to proof if this is a direction pointing to the issue.

    We checked for Microphone availability (ensure always allowed) and browser tab sleep mode

    Further we currently changed the settings for persistent timer for several user.

    Standard 600 changed for several to 14400 and another group is disabled.  Will take a few days to see if this does change any.

    If anyone might try to confirm / check

    Hello,

    We're facing the same issue, agents going into "Not Responding" even with the auto-answer enabled.

    After extensive testing, we've identified a specific pattern:

    • It mostly happens right after agents log in: the first call offered after login frequently results in "Not Responding."

    • It can persist for multiple calls after login before eventually stabilizing.

    • We've confirmed this is not related to network instability, as it occurs even in regions with excellent connectivity and low RTT/latency.

    What we've done so far:

    • WebRTC Troubleshooter tests: Successful results, even in affected agents.

    • Persistent connection configuration: We're currently testing agents with persistent connection disabled, even though our previous timeout was already 14400s.

    We'd like to know if anyone else has noticed this post-login pattern and if there are any recommendations from Genesys or the community to mitigate this behavior.

    Eduardo, 

    you are speaking exactly to our initial issues.
    We've had a ticket open for 3 months now on this and we have found the root cause yet.

    We use Genesys through chrome installed as aapp
    As weird as this sounds, our workaround has been to have the agents refresh Genesys after log in.
    So log into to genesys, then if you click the phone handset icon, then click the setting gear, it will yell about audio permissions even though it has been granted the right permissions.

    Then click the refresh button in the upper left or hit F5, then if you go to that same place, the permission error message will clear, and their calls will be normal.

    Odd I know.

    I am shocked that the expectation is the first call will auto-answer, at all.  My experience with previous systems (as well as previous Genesys, I think) was that the first call always had to be manually answered to establish the connection.  I might be wrong with this in relation to Genesys Cloud, but that has always been my personal expectation.

    Hi everyone, quick update on our side:

    Even after adjusting the alert timeout and disabling the persistent connection, we've seen no significant improvement in behavior.

    Our agents are still struggling to answer calls, even when the agent clicks "Answer" manually, the media session fails to establish (both with and without auto-answer enabled). We've also observed the following warning in logs: "warn [webrtc-sdk] Permission was denied for media type. Setting sdk state"

    This occurs despite the browser (Chrome/Edge) being set to "Always allow" microphone access for both Genesys and Salesforce domains.

    We are currently experiencing intermittent RONA (Redirect On No Answer) issues affecting multiple agents across various locations. These issues occur regardless of whether agents are working from home or from the office.

    Our organization operates two separate Genesys Cloud environments-one based in India and the other in the US  region. Notably, the RONA issues are being observed across both instances, indicating that the problem is not isolated to a single region or deployment.

    We have already raised a Genesys Care support request, but the issue has been ongoing for over a month without resolution.

    As part of our ongoing troubleshooting efforts, we have already shared Wireshark captures, network diagnostics, browser console logs, and system performance screenshots with the Genesys support team.

    We kindly request that the Genesys team prioritize this issue and assist us in identifying and implementing a fix as soon as possible.

    Hi Deepa Subramanyam,

    Can you advise how to determine how many calls are RONA in the Genesys Native reporting?

    Or is this something we need an API to discover?

    Many Thanks
