Hello Caitlyn,
As of right now, Genesys Cloud doesn't support restricting automated scoring in programs to only interactions where specific topics are detected. When you turn on automated scoring, it evaluates all interactions within the assigned queues or flows, regardless of whether a topic is present. Programs can still use topics to help identify intent and organize analytics, but topic detection itself doesn't act as a filter for scoring. So even if you're only interested in certain topics, the system will still score every eligible interaction.
As a workaround, you can use topic-based evaluation assistance in your evaluation forms to automatically populate answers when certain topics are found, but this still happens after all interactions are scored. You can also filter interactions by topic afterward to focus your review, though again, scoring will have already been applied across the board. Quality Management policies may help narrow things down using criteria like queues or wrap-up codes, but they don't support topic-based filtering either. So for now, there isn't a built-in way to pre-filter automated scoring by topic, but these approaches can help you get closer to what you're looking for.
Hope this helps!
