Hello Richard,
as Cameron mentioned: This is expected. A external Contact is, as the name says, a contact beyond Genesys. If this external Contact is something you host within Genesys, then you will have to use other transfer methods. Transferring to external contacts greates a new incoming call in Genesys and with it a new conversation ID. That is the reason why you can not use participant data.
If - for some reason - you are forced to use transfer to external contact - you need to find another way to transfer data. If the callers ANI is transmitted while transferring you could match data written in a data table via caller ANI. But that will not cover cases the customer supresses his ANI.

Subject: Transferring data
I have a script which has participant data attached to it which includes a marker to say the customer has successfully been verified. When I have tested and transferred the call to another QUEUE it has retained the Pass on the screen pop/script however when I transfer using an EXTERNAL CONTACT it loses the Pass on the screen pop/script. Is this expected behaviour and if so is there any way which I can make sure that the Pass appears whether transferring to a queue or external contact.
