Google announced yesterday the phasing out support for third-party cookies from its Chrome browser.  I received this notice from Salesforce.  Will this impact Genesys and the integration to Salesforce and if so is Genesys working towards resolving this issue?

Martin,

This has crossed my desk as well (in fact, I came here this morning to post about it and saw your post! So thanks 😀) I'm also hearing about it from customers on other platforms, but all related to that post from SalesForce.

I don't pretend to be an expert on this aspect, and tried doing some research. Other than that page from SalesForce, I don't see much reference to this. What I have found is that the term "Open CTI" appears to have two meanings and I'm wondering if the two are getting mixed up? (Depending on where you look, CTI means "Computer Telephony Integration", or "Cyber Threat Intelligence")

What I am struggling with is that it says "If your Open CTI implementations include browser cookies", surely SalesForce would know if their own client / integration uses cookies?

Finally, IF it is an issue for Genesys Cloud, please remember the Desktop App is basically re-branded Chrome.... 😯

I will be following this thread with interest. I will add to it if I find out anything else.

Assuming it is Open CTI "Computer Telephony Integration" I also wonder if this would impact PureConnect customers and at this stage of the life of PureConnect would Genesys work on a fix for PureConnect.
