File Attachments in Canned Responses - Coming Soon!

  • 1.  File Attachments in Canned Responses - Coming Soon!

    The Canned Responses team is excited to share that file attachments support is coming to Canned Responses in Genesys Cloud!

    This enhancement will give administrators the ability to add supported file attachments, including documents, PDFs, images, and videos, when creating or editing canned responses. When agents use those canned responses during digital interactions, Genesys Cloud will automatically include the associated attachments.

    Today, agents must manually locate and attach files each time they use a canned response. With this enhancement, agents can send the response and its attachments together.

    This enhancement will help organizations reduce manual effort and improve consistency when sending frequently requested documents and other files to customers. By attaching approved files directly to canned responses, agents can respond more quickly, avoid attaching incorrect or outdated files, and provide a more consistent customer experience.

    We know many of you have been waiting for this capability. Thank you for your patience and understanding. We are looking forward to getting this capability into your hands and enabling even smoother content management experiences in Genesys Cloud. Stay tuned for the GA date as we get closer to winding up our testing efforts and prep for the release.

    Is there any possibility to filter which extensions to allow/restrict as it's in Web Messenger?

    We've started testing this feature, but so far it only seems to work for the person who originally configured the canned response.

    In my case, I can insert the canned response with attachments without any issues. However, when anyone else on the team tries to use the same canned response, they get an error saying, "Something went wrong loading your attachments." When that happens, the entire canned response fails to load - not just the attachments, but the text as well.

    Has anyone else run into this issue, or found a workaround?


    All users, including myself, are part of the same division.

    We're seeing 'Error on delivery' when sending ours too. The text will send but the attachmnet part won't. Has anyone got this working?

    Hi Shauna, I managed to sort this issue for our org. 

    We were simply missing the permission "Email Attachment - Add" in the agents role.

    Same experience for PDF attachments. Error on delivery for SMS. @Marudhu Pandian - could you clarify why it would throw error for SMS interaction?

    Does this feature work on email campaigns? i see the canned template for campaign emails allows you to add an attachments now, but when i send the email campaign it strips the attachment. Is this part still in development?

    Hi Dawn,

    Email Campaigns do not support attachments yet. Customers use responses of type Email Campaign Template in agent interactions too and in those instances attachments (if any, tied to the response) will work. But the attachments will be ignored in campaigns. RC article: https://help.genesys.cloud/articles/add-a-campaign-email-template-message/.

    This will be a follow-up feature, but we don't have a confirmed timeline yet. You can vote for that idea here: https://genesyscloud.aha.io/ideas/ideas/CEOCD-I-1082.
