Web SDK installation guide

This page explains how to install and use the Contact Center AI Platform (CCAI Platform) web SDK. To help you get started, Google recommends downloading and using our Web SDK version 2 examples files.

Before you begin

  1. Include the CCAI Platform web SDK loader in your web client.

    <script src="https://websdk.ujet.co/v2/loader.js"></script>

  2. Initialize the CCAI Platform web SDK with your COMPANY_KEY.

  3. Initialize authentication with your COMPANY_SECRET using your backend code.

Installation workflow

Installation workflow

Get started

The following sections provide information for getting started with the CCAI Platform web SDK.

Initialize the web SDK

You can initialized the web SDK using your company key.

Get your company key

To get your company key, follow these steps:

  1. Sign into the CCAI Platform portal using administrator credentials.

  2. Click Menu, and then click Settings > Developer settings.

  3. Go to the Company key and secret code pane and save the code in the Company key field.

You can then initialize the web SDK with the UJET(config) method and ujet.on('created', function) event. Provide your CCAI Platform instance host, for example myccaip.uc1.ccaiplatform.com.

// INITIALIZE WEB SDK
var ujet = new UJET({
  companyId: "YOUR_COMPANY_ID",
  host: "https://myccaip.uc1.ccaiplatform.com",
});

ujet.on('created', function () {
  ujet.authenticate(getAuthToken);
});

Alternatively, you can use authenticate option without a created event:

var ujet = new UJET({
  companyId: "YOUR_COMPANY_ID",
  authenticate: getAuthToken,
  host: "https://myccaip.uc1.ccaiplatform.com",
});

where getAuthToken() is a function that calls upon a JWT signing mechanism from your backend:

function getAuthToken() {
  // YOU SHOULD HAVE THIS KIND OF API ON YOUR SERVER
  return fetch('/auth/token')
    .then(function(resp) {
      // { token: '....' }
      return resp.json();
    });
}

where fetch() calls upon a JWT signing mechanism from your backend. For more information, see Mozilla Fetch API.

Configure the web SDK for co-browse

Co-browse is an optional feature that enables an agent to see an end-user's screen and, optionally, take control of it. To use co-browse, you need to provide the co-browse domain and license key of your CCAI Platform instance during SDK initialization.

To configure the web SDK for co-browse, follow these steps:

  1. To get the co-browse domain and license key of your CCAI Platform instance, do the following:

    1. Sign into the CCAI Platform portal using administrator credentials.

    2. Click Menu, and then click Settings > Developer Settings.

    3. Go to the Co-browse pane and click the toggle to the on position.

    4. Save the values in the Co-browse Domain and License Key fields.

  2. To provide the co-browse domain and license key during SDK initialization, include the following code when you Initialize the web SDK:

    var ujet = new UJET({
  // other options
  cobrowseOptions: {
    license: "LICENSE_KEY",
    trustedOrigins: ["CO-BROWSE_DOMAIN"],
    api: "CO-BROWSE_DOMAIN"
  },
  // other options
})

    Replace the following:

    • LICENSE_KEY: the license key that you saved in the previous step

    • CO-BROWSE_DOMAIN: the co-browse domain that you saved in the previous step

For more information, see Set up co-browse.

Initialize authentication with your company secret

The function getAuthToken() should call your API and encode your payload with your COMPANY_SECRET.

Here is an example of a JWT signing using ExpressJS:

const express = require('express')
const jwt = require('jsonwebtoken')

const port = process.env.PORT || 3000
const secret = process.env.COMPANY_SECRET || 'secret'

const app = express()

app.use(express.json())

app.post('/auth/token', function (req, res) {
  const payload = {}
  payload['iss'] = 'YOUR_COMPANY_NAME'
  const iat = parseInt(Date.now() / 1000, 10)
  payload['iat'] = iat
  payload['exp'] = iat + 600
  const token = jwt.sign(payload, secret, { algorithm: 'HS256' })
  res.json({ token })
})

app.listen(port, function () {
  console.log(`Listing at http://localhost:${port}`)
})

You can use any backend service.

Content security policy

If your production server has a content security policy, add https://websdk.ujet.co/ into your script-src and frame-src.

Support for Internet Explorer 11

To support Internet Explorer, babel-polyfill is used in our code. If your website also uses babel-polyfill, don't import it to the web SDK as using the same library globally and in the web SDK could cause an exception. Before importing the package, we recommend adding code to check for this and to help prevent this.

Keep track of users

The previous example won't keep track of users. If you would like to identify repeat users in your CRM and use pre-canned responses with the users' information, you must add identifiers to users.

To do this you must add identifiers in the following places:

  1. Pass to backend in getAuthToken()

    function getAuthToken() {
  // YOU SHOULD HAVE THIS KIND OF API ON YOUR SERVER
  return fetch('/auth/token', {
    headers: {
      'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    method: "POST",
    body: JSON.stringify({
      payload: {
        identifier: 'c727f2851b64b29761da170d0adee67a9a89c2d9960c8eee0ae53737413cfa4e',
        name: 'Test user',
        email: 'test@user.com',
        phone: '1800UJETSDK'
      }
    })
  }).then(function(resp) {
    return resp.json();
  });
}

  2. Add to payload when encoding JWT

    const express = require('express')
const jwt = require('jsonwebtoken')

const port = process.env.PORT || 3000
const secret = process.env.COMPANY_SECRET || 'secret'

const app = express()

app.use(express.json())

app.post('/auth/token', function (req, res) {
  const payload = req.body.payload
  payload['iss'] = 'YOUR_COMPANY_NAME'
  const iat = parseInt(Date.now() / 1000, 10)
  payload['iat'] = iat
  payload['exp'] = iat + 600
  const token = jwt.sign(payload, secret, { algorithm: 'HS256' })
  res.json({ token })
})

app.listen(port, function () {
  console.log(`Listing at http://localhost:${port}`)
})

  3. Add extra options in authentication()

    new UJET({
  // ...
  authenticate: function() {
    return getAuthToken().then({ token } => {
      return {
        token: token,
        user: {
          identifier: YOUR_UNIQUE_USER_ID,
          name: 'Test user' //optional,
          email: 'test@user.com', //optional,
          phone: '000000000' //optional
        }
      };
    });
  },
})

External chatbot transfer

When you transfer a chat from the virtual agent to the agent, you can override the greeting message and pass the transcripts to the agent by backfilling the external_chat_transfer field to the custom data. The greeting_override supports Markdown formatting.

{
  "external_chat_transfer": {
    "greeting_override": "Please hold while we connect you with a human agent.",
    "agent": {
      "name": "Agent Name",
      "avatar": "https://ujet.s3.amazonaws.com/default-virtual-agent-avatar-1.png"
    },
    "transcript": [
      {
        "sender": "agent",
        "timestamp": "2021-03-15 12:00:00Z",
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "text",
            "text": "Hello! How can I help you today?"
          },
          {
            "type": "buttons",
            "buttons": [
              {
                "label": "Create New Order",
                "selected": false
              },
              {
                "label": "Check Order Status",
                "selected": true
              },
              {
                "label": "Check Account Balance",
                "selected": false
              }
            ]
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        "sender": "end_user",
        "timestamp": "2021-03-15 12:00:15Z",
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "txt",
            "text": "Ceck Order Status"
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        "sender": "aget",
        "timestamp": "021-03-15 12:00:16Z",
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "txt",
            "text": "Ican help you with that, what's your order number?"
          }
        ]
      },
      {
        "sender": "enduser",
        "timestamp": "021-03-15 12:00:20Z",
        "content": [
          {
            "type": "mdia",
            "media": {
              "type": image",
              "url": "https://ujet.s3.amazonaws.com/default-virtual-agent-avatar-1.png"
            }
          }
        ]
      }
    ]
  }
}

Chat unsigned custom data

When a chat is started, you can pass custom data with the chat object. Custom data can be the operating system, the version number, the location, or any other data that might be relevant to the chat. This data is unencrypted and therefore shouldn't contain Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

You can also pass this custom data into a virtual agent. For more information, see Virtual agents.

var ujet = new UJET({
  // other parameters
  customData: {
    version: {
      label: 'Version',
      value: '1.1.0'
    },
    platform: {
      label: 'Platform',
      value: navigator.platform
    }
  },
});

The custom data format is similar to JSON. Each data field and contains a key, a label and a value. Here is an example:

{
  "k1": {
    "label": "Version",
    "value": "1.2.3"
  },
  "k2": {
    "label": "Dashboard",
    "value": "http://example.com"
  }
}

In this example, k1 and k2 are keys. label is a label on a CRM page, and value is the value of the label.

Prevent the display of custom data

You can use the invisible_to_agent property with a customData object to prevent signed or unsigned custom data from being displayed in the agent adapter. In the following example, the version is shown in the agent adapter, but the platform is not shown.

var ujet = new UJET({
  // other parameters
  customData: {
    version: {
      label: 'Version',
      value: '1.1.0',
      invisible_to_agent: true
    },
    platform: {
      label: 'Platform',
      value: navigator.platform,
      invisible_to_agent: false
    }
  }

When you include the "invisible_to_agent" : true property with a custom data object, you can expect the following behavior:

  • The custom data is included in the session metadata file.
  • The custom data is not included in CRM records.

For more information, see View session data in the agent adapter.

Reserved data properties

You can send reserved data properties to CCAI Platform as signed custom data when a session begins. For more information, see Send reserved data properties.

The following is an example of reserved data properties in custom data:

  {
    "custom_data": {
      "reserved_verified_customer": {
        "label": "Verified Customer",
        "value": "VERIFIED_CUSTOMER_BOOLEAN": ,
        "type": "boolean"
      },
      "reserved_bad_actor": {
        "label": "Bad Actor",
        "value": "VERIFIED_BAD_ACTOR_BOOLEAN": ,
        "type": "boolean"
      },
      "reserved_repeat_customer": {
        "label": "Repeat Customer",
        "value": "REPEAT_CUSTOMER_BOOLEAN": ,
        "type": "boolean"
      }
    }
  }

Replace the following:

  • VERIFIED_CUSTOMER_BOOLEAN: True if you consider this end-user to be a legitimate customer.
  • VERIFIED_BAD_ACTOR_BOOLEAN: True if you consider this end-user to potentially be a bad actor.
  • REPEAT_CUSTOMER_BOOLEAN: True if you have determined that this end-user has contacted your contact center before.

Disable attachments

You can stop consumers from uploading attachments with the disableAttachment option:

new UJET({
// ...
  disableAttachment: true
});

With disableAttachment: true, there will be no attachment icon in the chat input area and consumers can't drag files into the message area.

Chat deflection

When agents are not available, you can specify options for automatically handling this condition for web and mobile chats.

Options for chat deflection can be found in the CCAI Platform portal, at Settings>Chat>Web & mobile deflection.

After hours deflection

After hours deflection is specific to the contact center or the queue being outside of the operational hours. To enable after hours deflection, do the following:

  1. In the CCAI Platform portal, at Settings > Chat > Web & mobile deflection.

  2. If After hours deflection is turned off, it can be enabled by selecting the After hours deflection option.

  3. Change the Allow Transfers option to allow transfers to queues outside of hours of operation for the following behavior:

    • Agents will be able to see the following queues as options to transfer to in the Agent Adapter:

      • All queues within operating hours

      • All queues that are outside of hours of operation with no deflection enabled and active, logged-in agents

      • All queues that are after hours with an assigned virtual agent in 24-hour availability mode

    • Agents won't be able to see the following types of queues:

      • All queues that are after hours with after hour deflection enabled

      • All queues that are outside of operating hours with an assigned virtual agent limited to queue hours of operation

Over capacity deflection

Over capacity deflection is specific to the current agent capacity and current wait time for the queue that the session is assigned to. To enable this option, do the following:

  1. In the Contact Center AI Platform Portal, at Settings > Chat > Web & Mobile Deflection.

  2. If Overcapacity Deflection is turned off, select the Overcapacity Deflection toggle to turn it on.

  3. Set the wait time in minutes that would change the status of the queue to overcapacity.

    This time threshold setting is also used to set the frequency at which the end-user will see the overcapacity message.

Deflection options

It is possible to specify the options available to the end-user when the deflection occurs.

Email

The email option when enabled provides the ability for the end-user to be deflected to email. When the end-user establishes a web or mobile chat session after hours they are prompted if they want to compose an email.

The specific behavior is as follows:

  • Mobile: With email deflection enabled and the estimated wait time threshold met, when the end-user taps on the Chat option, they are directed to their default email app. The app version and iOS/Android version are automatically inserted into the email body and the subject is Support for [selected menu path]. Alternatively, the email form may be enabled. For more information, see Integrated email form for mobile and web.

  • Web: Presents an Email option to end-users. When clicked, an email form will appear. For more information, see Integrated email form for mobile and web.

  • Keep Waiting (Web only): Allows the end-user to click an option to keep waiting.

Co-browse consent dialogs let an end-user consent to an initial co-browse session request, as well as a subsequent remote control request or full device access request. When you configure the web SDK for co-browse, the web SDK provides default consent dialogs and session-end button. However, you can add optional fields to the cobrowseOptions object that let you customize the consent dialogs as well the session-end button. Not only does this give you control of the look and feel of these elements, but it also lets you tailor the consent statements in the consent dialogs to suit your requirements.

A consent statement appears in a consent dialog. The consent statement indicates to the end-user what behavior they can expect from the co-browse experience and what they are consenting to. If you intend to record a co-browse session, you should say that in your consent statement. See Code sample for customized consent dialogs for examples of customized consent dialogs that contain consent statements.

Procedure

To configure the web SDK for co-browse and customize the consent dialogs, follow these steps:

  1. To get the co-browse domain and license key of your CCAI Platform instance, do the following:

    1. Sign into the CCAI Platform portal using administrator credentials.

    2. Click Menu, and then click Settings > Developer Settings.

    3. Go to the Co-browse pane, and then click the toggle to the on position.

    4. Save the values in the Co-browse Domain and License Key fields.

  2. To initialize the web SDK and include the co-browse customization fields, run the following code:

    var ujet = new UJET({
  // other options
  cobrowseOptions: {
    license: "LICENSE_KEY",
    trustedOrigins: ["CO-BROWSE_DOMAIN"],
    api: "CO-BROWSE_DOMAIN"
    cobrowseRequestHtml: "COBROWSE_REQUEST_HTML",
    remoteControlHtml: "REMOTE_CONTROL_HTML",
    fullDeviceHtml: "FULL_DEVICE_HTML",
    styles: "STYLES",
    sessionControlsHtml: "SESSION_CONTROLS_HTML"
  },
  // other options
})

    Replace the following:

Button classes

The consent dialogs contain buttons the let the user allow or deny the co-browse request, or close the consent dialog. For these buttons to communicate with the web SDK, you must associate the following button classes with the corresponding button types. The web SDK searches the code for these classes and adds an event listener for each of them. Here are the button classes:

  • cobrowse-allow: a button for the end-user to allow the request

  • cobrowse-deny: a button for the end-user to deny the request

  • cobrowse-close: a button for the end-user to close the consent dialog

The following code sample contains customized consent dialogs, an end-session button, and style information for these elements. Each consent dialog in the example contains a consent statement. Here are properties for the consent dialogs for each of the three co-browse modes:

"cobrowseOptions": {
    "license": "example_license",
    "trustedOrigins": "[https://example.com]",

Multiple language and visual message customization

The new Contact Center AI Platform (option) method has two fields to support multiple languages and visual message customization:

  • lang: This indicates the default language when the end-user did not choose a preferred language. This code conforms to ISO 639-1 and if omitted, is en by default.

  • translation: The Contact Center AI Platform web SDK supports multiple languages for displayed texts. With the translation object, you can customize texts for existing language or even add texts for new languages. For example: de, es, fr, ja.

The following is an example of a translation object which is customizing English copy. As you can see, the top level keys of the translation object should be the language code.

// ES6
let translation = `{
  "en": {
    "ujet_start_title": "Hi!"
  },
  "es": {
    "ujet_start_title": "¡Hola!"
  },
  "fr": {
    "ujet_start_title": "Salut!"
  },
  "de": {
    "ujet_start_title": "Hallo!"

  },
  "pt-BR": {

  },
  "sv": {

  }
}`;

// initialize when dom ready

  translation: translation
});

Tracking channel selection and email submission

To allow tracking of channel selection and email submission, the web SDK uses the postMessage function which passes a message with the following data:

  • application: The device type.

  • sdk_version: The version of the Web SDK.

  • user_agent: The browser version.

  • company: The tenant name.

  • menu_name: The name of the queue or menu that the end-user has selected.

  • menu_path: The path to the queue or menu that the end-user has selected.

  • menu_id: The Menu ID of the queue or menu that the end-user has selected.

  • url: The URL of the web page that the end-user was on when they made a channel selection or submitted an email.

  • timestamp: The time that the end-user made their selection.

  • has_attachments: Whether or not an email had attachments when it was submitted (this only appears during email submission, not during channel selection).

Message data is stored in a ujet object with 2 attributes: one called action that will be a string containing the name of the action completed, one called data that will include the data described previously.

To retrieve data from the message, you can create an event listener listening for "message". An example that will print the action and data to the console is outlined in the next section. A working example can be found in the tracking-channel-selection folder.

window.addEventListener('message', (e) => {
  if (e.data && e.data.ujet) {
    console.log(`Action: ${e.data.ujet.action}`);
    console.log(`Message Data: ${e.data.ujet.data}`);
  }
});

To hide the Agent Logo Border, add the '--logo-shadow': 'none' in the style attribute and set it to true in new UJET(option):

new UJET({
  // ...
  style: {
    '--logo-shadow': 'none',
  }
});

Hiding the launch icon

For aesthetic reasons, it is possible to hide the Web UI launch icon, opting to instead use a Proactive Chat Trigger or to start the chat programmatically. To remove the launch icon, add the launcher attribute and set it to true in new UJET(option):

new UJET({
  // ...
  launcher: false,
});

To programmatically start the Web UI, see Programmatically starting the Web UI. To start the web UI with a proactive chat trigger, see Proactive Trigger.

Using a direct access point

You can use a direct access to send an end-user directly to a specific queue.

To use a direct access point, follow these steps:

  1. Sign into the CCAI Platform portal.

  2. Go to Settings > Queue.

  3. Ensure that the web channel is enabled by toggling use.

  4. Go to Edit > View for the web channel. The web structure is displayed.

  5. Select the queue that you want the end-user to go directly to.

  6. Go to the Access Point section, and then click Create direct access point.

  7. Provide the following information:

    1. Set the access point type to general.

    2. Provide the Access Point Name. This is the name that appears in the Access Point list.

    3. Provide the General Access Point Label. This is the value that you will use to configure the web SDK.

  8. Click Create.

You can pass the name of a direct access point using the ujet.start(options) method. See the following example:

var launcher = document.getElementById('launcher');
launcher.addEventListener('click', function() {
  if (ujet.status === 'open') {
    ujet.close();
  } else {
    ujet.start({ menuKey: '__MENU_KEY__' });
  }
});

Programmatically close the web UI

This is an optional step. Without this step, the Web UI will be finished and minimized by itself.

This step lets you call the callback function when the consumer wants to close the Web SDK.

ujet.on('close', function() {
  // do something here
});

Programmatically start the web UI

This is an optional step. Without this step, end-user can start the Web UI by clicking the Web UI launch icon.

This step lets you open the Web UI programmatically with the ujet.start(options) method. You may want the end-user to click an additional button to open the Web UI like this:

<button id="launcher">Click to open</button>

var ujet = new UJET({
  companyId: "YOUR_COMPANY_ID",
  host: "HOST_URL",
  launcher: false
});

var launcher = document.getElementById('launcher');
launcher.addEventListener('click', function() {
  if (ujet.status === 'open') {
    ujet.close();
  } else {
    ujet.start();
  }
});

ujet.on('ready', function() {
  launcher.textContent = 'ready to talk';
});

ujet.registerHook('loading', function() {
  launcher.textContent = 'loading';
});

ujet.registerHook('open', function() {
  launcher.textContent = 'Click to close';
});

ujet.registerHook('close', function() {
  launcher.textContent = 'Click to open';
});

ujet.on('created', function() {
  ujet.authenticate(getAuthToken);
});

You can also close the widget with ujet.close() method, and you can remove the widget with ujet.destroy() method.

Proactive trigger

With proactive triggers, you can trigger the web SDK to proactively send a message to the end-user.

To set up a proactive trigger, follow these steps:

  1. In the CCAI Platform portal, go to Settings > Chat.

  2. Go to the Web Proactive Chat Triggers pane, and then click View triggers. The Triggers pane appears.

  3. Click Add Trigger. The Choose Name pane appears.

  4. In the Trigger name field, enter a name, and then click Next. The Set Conditions pane appears.

  5. To set conditions, do the following:

    1. Next to The end user, select a condition.

    2. In the Enter a keyword field, enter a keyword that you want the condition to refer to, and then press the Enter key.

    3. Repeat the previous step for each keyword that you want to enter.

    4. To add another condition, click Add Another Condition, and then click the condition type that you want.

    5. Set the configuration option for the condition.

    6. To add another condition, repeat the previous two steps.

    7. Click Next. The Define Actions pane appears.

  6. To define actions, do the following:

    1. Under Queue Assignment, enter the name of the chat queue node that you want to assign the end-user to. If a chat queue by this name exists, the name appears in bold under the field.

    2. Click the bold chat queue name. A confirmation dialog appears.

    3. Click OK to continue.

    4. Under Chat message, enter the message you want to display in the triggered chat.

    5. Click Finish.

    6. To activate your new trigger, click Go live.

Existing ticket IDs

If you have an existing ticket for a end-user, you can retrieve the ticket ID from your CRM and pass it into the web SDK by calling ujet.start().

For example:

yourFunctionToRetrieveTicket()
  .then((existingTicket) => {
    ujet.start({ ticketId: existingTicket });
  });

You can refer to the example in the ticket-id folder for reference.
