Closed for meeting/emergency/event

Note: For this state to activate, the Call Center Manager Gregory Bosley must update the relevant contact flow

The call center receives calls as normal, but plays a designated message to customers.  The steps to do this are recorded and available here. 

When we launched Amazon Connect, we began offering chat support via chat.laits.utexas.edu.  

Chat transcripts are logged in S3 and are accessible via Connect if need be. Contact a call enter manager if you need to review a chat transcript.

As a part of supporting remote instruction, LAITS has begun supporting some online classes as described here. If you are in a role or routing profile that may take chatbot escalations, you must use the custom agent control panel found here: https://chat.laits.utexas.edu/agent

 To use the custom agent control panel, simply log in to Amazon Connect as normal and then open https://chat.laits.utexas.edu/agent in a new window rather than clicking the phone icon.

Routing profiles may be edited and assigned by Amazon Connect Admins under Users > User Management > Selecting a User > Edit. All full time employees have this permission.
