Admin Consent:

This section allows granting necessary permissions for BlueSky Contact Center applications to function properly within the Microsoft 365 environment. These permissions are bundled and requested by service (Call Handler, Contact Center, Sidekick, Jobs). The Administrator will need to sign in with their Microsoft 365 Administrator credentials to grant these permissions.

By leveraging the comprehensive functionalities available within the Admin Console, Administrators can establish a well-configured and efficient BlueSky Contact Center environment to optimize call routing, agent performance, and overall customer experience.

Call Routing:

The way that calls will be routed to Agents.

1. Default routes calls by score. When two or more agents have the same score, the call will be routed randomly among them.
   
2. Longest Idle routes calls by score as well, but when two or more agents have the same score, the call will be routed to the agent that has been in Available status for the longest time.
