Configuring Pulse

Steps to enable the Pulse features available for Context Services in the GAX interface. If you configure Pulse options, you will get widgets including Context Services statistics in your Pulse Dashboard.

Pulse is a widget-driven, graphical user application, which is accessible from a web browser as a Genesys Administrator Extension (GAX) plug-in application. Using a direct communication link to a real-time metrics engine, Stat Server, Pulse enables at-a-glance views of real-time contact center statistics within the GAX user interface.

Context Services installation already includes default templates for Pulse. If you configure Pulse options, as detailed below, Context Services pushes events to the Stat Server for Pulse which are then available for users in the Pulse dashboards and widgets.

See the Pulse portal page for detailed documentation on this tool.
