Hello,
We had a vendor do our bot development when we first migrated from the Bold360/GenesysDX platform to Genesys Cloud CX. We have several bots that live on our websites and have the ability to escalate to an agent. I am now teaching myself how to build a bot for our internal helpdesk website. I have a couple questions that hopefully this community can assist with.
When programming an Inbound Message Flow to call a Digital Bot Flow, what is the purpose of adding a Change State to a new object do the digital bot flow call, versus just using the Initial State object to Call the Digital Bot Flow directly? In this article the latter is how it is suggested: Add an inbound message flow that calls a digital bot flow - Genesys Cloud Resource Center (mypurecloud.com) but the vendor that did our build set it up the first way (see screenshot).
Thank you for any advice you can provide to this Genesys noob! :)
