}

Notice that paths includes relative URIs with the /api/v2 prefix.

activationFailFastPeriod

Default Value: 10000
Valid Values: Any integer greater than 0
Mandatory: Yes
Determines fast-fail period length after a failure. Any attempt to reconnect to a Genesys server within the time specified by the activationFailFastPeriod option results in an immediate failure. To understand how this option works, consider this scenario:

• Agent A logs in to a GWS node. Note that connection to tserver is not active yet. GWS attempts to connect to tserver and the connection attempt fails.
• Agent B attempts to login within the activationFailFastPeriod. GWS does not attempt to connect to tserver. The agent is authenticated, but is not logged into the voice channel.
• After activationFailFastPeriod expires, Agent C attempts to login. GWS connects to TServer if the authentication is successful. Note that if the connection attempt fails, the activationFailFastPeriod is restarted again.

activationTimeout

Default Value: 12000
Valid Values: An integer greater than 0
Mandatory: No
Specifies the timeout, in milliseconds, for connecting to any Genesys server (except Configuration Server). This may include several individual attempts if the initial attempt to connect is unsuccessful.

Important

Genesys recommends that you use the provided "default" account in Configuration Server. It is possible to use a different account, but you must take care in configuring the user's account permissions. Outside of a lab setting, this is best done in consultation with Genesys.

cmePassword

Default Value: None
Valid Values: A valid password
Mandatory: Yes
The password for the Configuration Server user Web Services uses to connect to Configuration Server.

syncNode

Default Value: None
Valid Values: true, false
Mandatory: No
Specifies whether the node is the synchronization node. This node is responsible for importing objects from Configuration Server into Cassandra, subscribing to changes notifications with Configuration Server, and processing updates.

Important

In each Web Services cluster, one node must be configured as the synchronization node: syncNode = true. All other nodes in the cluster must have syncNode = false.

synchronizationCmeEventsPrefilterEnabled

This option is no longer applicable as of release 8.5.201.09.

statisticsMonitorMultimediaChannelStates

Default Value: false
Valid Values: true, false
Mandatory: No
Specifies whether to monitor user states on non-voice channels.

reportingSyncInterval

Default Value: 30
Valid Values: An integer greater than 0
Mandatory: No
Specifies the interval, in seconds, for the reporting services to poll the database for information about the activities of other monitoring nodes and for the current state of the contact center configuration. If you set this option to a larger value, it decreases the load on the database, but also increases the timeout for detecting nodes that are down and objects that are added or updated in contact centers.

Important

The value of this option specifies the rate of scheduling, not the delay between when the previous polling finishes and the new polling starts.

enableElasticSearchIndexing

Default Value: false
Valid Values: true, false
Mandatory: No
Specifies whether the configuration information and statistics should be indexed to Elasticsearch. If set to true, you must set the crClusterName option.

statisticsOpenRetryInterval

Default Value: 60 (1 hour)
Valid Values: An integer greater than 0
Mandatory: No
Specifies the interval, in minutes, for trying to reopen failed statistics. For example, if a statistic cannot be opened on Stat Server, it is marked as failed and then the server attempts to reopen the stat once every hour (the default value of statisticsOpenRetryInterval).

Default Value: None
Valid Values: Path to a signed certificate
Mandatory: No
Specifies the path to a certificate signed by a Certificate Authority. The file must be in the .pem or .jks format (if .jks, you can also set jksPassword). The certificate can be used if the WS_Cluster application uses Transport Layer Security (TLS) to connect to Genesys servers. This option is also mandatory to enable SAML authentication.

jksPassword

Default Value: None
Valid Values: Password for the key storage
Mandatory: No
Specifies the password for the key storage set in caCertificate, when the certificate is in .jks format. This option is mandatory to enable SAML authentication.

Screen Recording

screenRecordingSettings

Default Value: None
Valid Values:

Name	Mandatory	Default Value	Description
screenRecordingVoiceEnabled	No	false	Specifies whether the current Web Services node supports screen recording for voice interactions. If false, the node rejects CometD requests from the ScreenRecording Client for agents with the voice channel.
screenRecordingEServicesEnabled	No	false	Specifies whether the current Web Services node supports screen recording for non-voice interactions. If false, the node rejects CometD requests from the ScreenRecording Client for agents with the eServices channel.
recordingInteractionEventsTTL	No	172800	Specifies the time to live (TTL) for Cassandra to cache a screen recording interaction event.
clientSessionManagerCacheTTL	No	60	Specifies the TTL for the Web Services node to cache agent information (such as the agent's name) so that the node doesn't have to read the information from Web Services on each request.
contactCenterInfoManagerCacheTTL	No	90	Specifies the TTL for the Web Services node to cache contact center information so that the node doesn't have to read the information from Web Services on each request.

Mandatory: No
Specifies the screen recording configuration parameters. For example:

...
screenRecordingSettings:
   screenRecordingVoiceEnabled: false
   screenRecordingEServicesEnabled: false
   recordingInteractionEventsTTL: 172800

contactCenterFeaturesTTL	No	30	The TTL, in seconds, for contact-center feature IDs in cache.
contactCenterSettingsTTL	No	30	The TTL, in seconds, for contact-center custom settings in cache.
voiceContextCaching	No	false	Specifies whether to use in-memory cached context for processing voice events. Using caching reduces the processing time, but you can expect delays in configuration information propagation.
voiceContextRefreshInterval	No	30	The interval, in seconds, between refreshes of the context caches for voice event processing. The service reads configuration information from the database and then refreshes the corresponding caches.

Mandatory: No

maxWaitMs	No	50	Specifies the length of time, in milliseconds, to blocking wait for the throttle semaphore.
throttledRequests	No	5	Specifies the number of requests over the rate limit that are able to be considered at once.
throttleMs	No	30000	Specifies the length of time, in milliseconds, to asynchronously wait for semaphore.
maxRequestMs	No	30000	Specifies the length of time, in milliseconds, to allow the request to run.
maxIdleTrackerMs	No	30000	Specifies the length of time, in milliseconds, to keep track of request rates for a connection, before deciding that the user has gone away, and discarding the connection.
insertHeaders	No	true	If true, DoSFilter headers are inserted into the response.
trackSessions	No	true	If true, the usage rate is tracked by session if a session exists.
remotePort	No	false	If true and session tracking is not used, then the rate is tracked by IP + port (effectively connection).
ipWhitelist	No	""	A comma-separated list of IP addresses that is not rate limited.

Mandatory: No
Specifies how Web Services should handle denial of service. For example:

...
enableDosFilter: true
dosFilterSettings:
