Enabling the Interactions Search view

In Workspace Web Edition, you can enable the Interactions Search view. When enabled, the agent can select Interactions Search from the main menu and then use a variety of advanced search controls to locate the interactions that they want to view. The search returns a maximum of 100 results.

Start

  1. Activate the Interaction Search view. See privilege.contact.can-search-all-interactions.
  2. Enable advanced searching. See privilege.contact.can-advanced-search-all-interactions.
  3. Enable the filtering of interactions. See privilege.contact.can-filter-all-interactions.
  4. Define the list of attributes that the agent can select in the Quick Search view. See contact.all-interactions-quick-search-attributes.
  5. Define the list of attributes that the agent can select in the Advanced Search view. See contact.history-search-attributes.
  6. Define the list of search types that the agent can use to define a date range for the search. See contact.date-search-types.
  7. Define the columns displayed in the returned search results. See contact.all-interactions-displayed-columns.
  8. Specify which interaction types (channels) are included in the Interaction Search view list of interactions. See contact.history.media-filters.

Advanced Search

The standard search enables you to search for interactions by status, subject, start date, end date, contact first name, and contact last name. You can expand the capabilities of the advanced search by enabling agents to search for interactions based on the attributes listed in the Searchable Attributes table. You specify these criteria by using the contact.history-search-attributes option.

Case Sensitivity

Search is case insensitive. TEST, tESt, test, and teST are all considered identical.

Phrase Search

Searches are Starts With searches unless quotation marks are used. When quotation marks are used, Workspace employs an Exact search.

If an agent encloses a phrase in quotation marks, search results return only matches for the exact phrase.

Without quotation marks around a phrase, each word is searched for independently, and results are returned for all interactions that contain all the strings that start with the specified words. If not all of the phrase strings are found in an interaction, it will not be included in the search results.

Custom Attributes

You can define a search based on custom attributes. Custom attribute search employs an Exact Match strategy. Workspace can search on either the Display name or the Attribute name.

To use a custom attribute, in the Interaction Attributes business attribute, define a new business attribute value where:

  • Name = <Name of the custom attribute>
  • Display Name = The name displayed in Workspace

Custom Attribute searches can either be presented as a text field where the agent must enter the exact search string to find a match, or you can configure Workspace to display a drop-down menu of search options so that agents do not have to type in the display name.

To do this:

  1. Define a business attribute with a name = <Name of the custom attribute> (for example, "hobby") that corresponds to an Interaction Attribute value
  2. Assign as the business attribute values the list of options and display names that will be displayed in the combo box for that attribute. For example:
    • Name = Baseball
      Display Name = Baseball
    • Name = Books
      Display Name = Books
    • Name = Cinema
      Display Name = Cinema
    • Name = DIY
      Display Name = Do It Yourself
    • Name = Sailing
      Display Name = Sailing
    • Name = Sports
      Display Name = Sports
