Project

The Microsoft Omnichannel Add-on is transforming customer engagement through Generative AI technology across various communication channels. It serves as an AI-centric contact center solution compatible with any CRM or third-party (3P) software. This add-on enables customers to leverage Dynamics 365 Omnichannel (OC) along with AI functionalities within their preferred CRM system.

Built upon the Dynamics Contact Center Platform (DCCP) infrastructure, the Omnichannel Add-on extends its capabilities by seamlessly integrating OC and AI features with existing 3P solutions. Agents have the flexibility to utilize the add-on in either Embedded mode, where the 3P CRM serves as the primary user experience (UX) with OC/AI functionalities embedded, or Standalone mode, where Dynamics OC/AI capabilities take precedence while maintaining connectivity with 3P CRM data.

Prerequisites

1. Set up D365 Contact Center embedded experience
2. Install Node latest version
3. git clone https://github.com/microsoft/dynamics-365-contact-center.git

CTIDriver Setup

The CTI driver serves as a bridge between the Microsoft Omnichannel Add-on and Salesforce CRM, allowing for the integration of telephony features into the CRM environment.

Note: These steps can be omitted if the default CTIDriver file is used.
