  • 1.  Conference button in script

    Posted 01-15-2026 07:09

    Hi everyone,

    I have a requirement to provide agents with a dropdown list of numbers that they can use to transfer or conference calls.

    I was able to configure this successfully for call transfers, but I haven't found a native way to achieve the same behavior for conference calls.

    My next step would be to explore a solution using a Data Action calling an API, but before going down that path, I wanted to check whether anyone has already implemented a simpler or more elegant approach to meet this requirement.

    Thanks!

    Hello @Fabian Teves - greetings from Brazil!

    If I understood correctly, you already have the dropdown populated with destination numbers, and now you want to start a conference to the selected number (instead of doing a blind transfer).

    Here's the key point: in Genesys Cloud Scripts, the native "telephony actions" exposed by Scripter are Blind Transfer and Consult Transfer (to a number, queue, or user). There isn't a native "Conference" script action in the standard list of available script actions.

    But, you can performe a consult transfer from the script:

    • Use your dropdown value as the target for Scripter.Consult Transfer.

    • After the consult leg is established, the agent can then use the client UI controls to convert to a conference (depending on the client experience and permissions).

    • This keeps the script "native" and avoids custom API orchestration.

    If you were hoping for a "conference transfer" action directly in the script (similar to blind/consult), that capability doesn't appear in the official script actions list today. If you share which client your agents use (Agent Workspace vs embedded client / integration), I can suggest the cleanest approach for that specific UI (some experiences make the "consult → conference" step clearer than others).

    Bom día @Fernando Sotto dos Santos!

    That is exactly what I was looking for! I didn't realize that I could use a scripter.consult transfer and convert it to a conference using the call controls,

    Muito obrigado pela sua ajuda!
