Which Genesys Cloud CX feature presents caller info to an agent and allows the user to update or collect the information?

Answer options

Correct Answer:

B

Explanation

Genesys Cloud CX Scripts are specifically designed to guide agents through interactions. They can display caller information, often retrieved from a CRM or data source via a data action, and provide interactive components such as text boxes, dropdowns, and checkboxes. This functionality allows an agent to both view existing customer data and actively collect or update that information during the conversation, which is then saved as interaction attributes or written back to the source system.

Why Incorrect

A. Dialog boxes are typically used for simple alerts or confirmations and lack the complex input fields needed for structured data collection.

C. Toast pop-ups are temporary, non-interactive notifications that alert an agent to an event, such as an incoming call; they do not allow for data entry.

D. IVR prompts are audio messages played to the caller within an automated call flow, not a tool presented to the agent for data collection.

Question breakdown

Tests: Identify agent-facing tools for displaying and capturing interaction data
Difficulty: Easy

Key idea: Scripts are agent-facing pages that can show caller data from variables or data actions and capture or update it with input components.

How to reach the answer

The clue is that the feature both presents caller info and lets the agent update or collect it.
That requires an interactive, agent-facing surface with input fields.
Toasts and dialog boxes are notifications or confirmations, not data-entry forms.
IVR prompts play audio to the caller, so they are not agent-facing.
Scripts are the only option that offers display plus inputs bound to variables.

Each option

AIncorrect. Dialog boxes are generic confirmation or alert UI and do not provide structured, data-bound fields for caller information.
BCorrect. Scripts display caller data through variables or data actions and offer inputs such as text boxes and dropdowns to collect or update it.
CIncorrect. Toast pop-ups are transient alerts, such as a new-interaction notice, and do not accept agent input.
DIncorrect. IVR prompts are audio played to the caller in Architect flows and are never presented to the agent.

Common trap: Toast pop-ups appear when a call arrives and can show some caller details, so they look like a screen pop, but they cannot collect or edit data.

In practice: Developers build scripts that call a CRM data action on load, show account details, and let agents correct fields that a second data action writes back.

Remember: For agent-facing display plus capture of interaction data in Genesys Cloud, the answer is Scripts.
