Manage Forms in Digital Experience

With Digital Experience, you can build forms to:

• Define the set of custom fields an agent can see per channel Customer Contact (Case).
• Securely collect information from your contacts (Public Secure Form).
• Collect information about a contact before starting a chat session (Precontact Survey).

Each type of form has a slightly different configuration process.

Customer Contact (Case) Forms

Customer contact (case) forms allow you to define a specific set of custom fields to display to an agent based on the channel they are using.

Create Customer Contact (Case) Forms

1. Click the app selector and select ACD.

2. Go to Digital > Forms.

3. Click Add new form.

4. Enter a Name for the form. From the Type drop-down, select Customer Contact (Case).

5. Click Save.

Assign Customer Contact (Case) Forms to Channels

After creating a customer contact (case) form, you can assign it to specific digital channels. Any channel the form is assigned to will show only the custom fields you add to the form.

1. Click the app selector and select ACD.

2. Go to Digital > Forms.

Public Secure Forms

Public secure forms allow contacts to safely share private information. For example, a contact could share their name, address, or phone number to sign up for a service you provide. You can determine which fields are visible to agents and how information is stored when you add fields to the form.
