Composer Equivalent to IRD Multimedia

Composer includes multimedia functionality (processing non-voice interactions) that was previously provided through Genesys Interaction Routing Designer (IRD). The information below is provided for existing Genesys customers transitioning to Composer, who are familiar with using IRD's Multimedia objects. The IRD To Composer Migration Guide, available on the Genesys Documentation Wiki, details the migration process.

Special Note on Validation and Off-Line Mode: When using Composer in “offline” mode (not Server connected to the Configuration Server), you can edit block properties that depend on information from Configuration Server. Later, when you connect to Configuration Server and validate the Interaction Processing diagram,  Composer will validate the values you entered in off-line mode.
