Sending and receiving file attachments in bot flows

    Hello, I haven't seen this mentioned anywhere, so I must assume it's not supported, but I thought I should ask anyway. We have several customers that have use cases that involve sending files to or receiving them from a (digital) bot flow. Typical use cases:

    • Bot request visitor to send an image of his or her ID
    • Visitor requests an invoice
    • Visitor requests a PDF brochure
    • and so forth

    Our customers don't consider a good user experience to send their visitors over to a web page to fill out a form to send a file, or for the bot to send a link to the visitor to fetch a file.

    Any thoughts? Anyone have come accross the same requests from their customers, or had a chance to experiment with this?

    Thank you for your feedback!

    Hi Fernando,

    Apologies for the delay in replying. You are correct that sending and receiving files is currently not supported. There is some support for images in a digital bot flow.

    For any missing requirements, you can look for and vote for an issue on https://genesyscloud.ideas.aha.io/ideas

    Regards,

    Kevin
