Flow block: Set disconnect flow
Description
-
Specifies which flow to run after a disconnect event during a contact.
A disconnect event is when:
A chat, or task is disconnected.
A task is disconnected as a result of a flow action.
A task expires. The task is automatically disconnected if it is not completed in 7 days.
When the disconnect event occurs, the corresponding flow runs.
-
Here are examples of when you might use this block:
-
Run post-contact surveys. For example, the agent asks the customer to remain on the line for a post-call survey. The agent hangs up and a disconnect flow is run. In the disconnect flow, the customer is asked a set of questions using the Get customer input block. Their answers are uploaded using an Invoke AWS Lambda function block to an external customer feedback database. The customer is thanked and disconnected.
For more information about creating post-contact surveys, see this blog: Easily create and visualize post chat surveys with Amazon Connect and Amazon Lex
. And check out this workshop: Building a contact survey solution for Amazon Connect . -
In a chat scenario, if a customer stops responding to the chat, use this block to decide whether to run the disconnect flow and call a Wait block, or end the conversation.
-
In task scenarios where a task may not be completed in 7 days, use this block to run a disconnect flow to determine whether the task should be re-queued, or completed/disconnected by a flow action.
