Result Branch Conditions

Result branch conditions allow you to create branches in your script to handle different outcomes when an action executes.

Condition

Description

Default

Path taken unless the script meets a condition that requires it to take one of the other branches. It is also taken if the action's other branches are not defined.

OnError

Path taken when the action fails to execute properly. For example, when there is an unexpected problem such as poor connectivity, syntax errors, and so on. The _ERR variable, with a single underscore character, should be populated with a condensed explanation of the problem.

Tips & Tricks

  • Use the _err variable to access the message in the event that an error occurs.
  • If you want to add a global DNC number, use DNC Add Via Group.
  • The default value in the Skill property depends on the selection you have in CXone. Change the default value by opening the Personal Connection skill in CXone, clicking the Do Not Call tab, and then modifying the Default Contributing DNC Group section.
  • Assign the skill in CXone by clicking Manage and selecting DNC. You can open any group and assign skills to the group.

Script Example

This is an example to show how this action can be used in scripts. It is not intended to be a complete script. Additional scripting may be required.

In this script example, Begin triggers the script, and DNC Lookup checks to see if a phone number is included in the DNC list assigned to the skillClosed Used to automate delivery of interactions based on agent skills, abilities, and knowledge. If the number is not on a DNC list, then a menu provides options for the user. They can click 1 to request an agent, or they can click 2 to be added to the DNC list that is assigned to the skill. A message will then play, telling them they have been added to the list and will not be contacted again.
