Data Residency
Digital DX data residency options match those discussed here.
How Customer History is generated
On the Customer History panel, agents are shown all previous interaction per channel from a given customer.
How does Digital DX determine a customer's identity? How do we know a customer is the same customer?
- Chat customers are identified by a visitor ID: They retain the same visitor ID as long as they use the same computer and browser and do not clear their cookies.
- Email customers are identified by an email address.
- When a customer uses both chat and email, if the customer provides an email address on a pre-chat form, we are able to connect their visitor ID (which we know from their chats) with their email (which they entered on a pre-chat form): We can say "This email address is associated with this visitor ID, so all previous chats with this visitor ID are from the person with this email address."
- Facebook Messenger customers can be identified if they provide their email.
Tip: When setting up a Facebook Messenger account, we recommend using the Auto Responder Create Email Prompt Rules feature. This creates a set of rules that automatically asks the customer to enter their email address.
