Sample secure customer data entry input in a call with a contact center agent

Note

This topic explains a sample flow that is included with Amazon Connect. For information about locating the sample flows in your instance, see Sample flows in Amazon Connect.

Type: Queue transfer

This flow shows you how to allow customers to input sensitive data while putting the agent on hold. In a production environment, we recommend using encryption instead of this solution.

Here's how it works:

  1. This flow begins with checking the customer's channel. If they are using chat, they are put in a queue.

  2. If they are using voice, the agent and customer are put in a conference call.

  3. A Play prompt tells the customer that the agent will be put on hold while customer enters their credit card information.

  4. When the prompt is finished playing, the agent is put on hold using a Hold customer or agent block. If an error occurs, a prompt is played that agent was unable to put on hold, after which the contact flow is ended.

  5. The customer's input is stored using the Store Customer Input block. This block encrypts the sensitive customer information using a signing key that must be uploaded in .pem format.

  6. After the customer's data is collected, the agent and customer are put back on call using the Conference All option in another Hold customer or agent block.

  7. The error branch runs if there's an error while capturing the customer's data.
