Enhanced Active Conversation form in Omnichannel for Customer Service – Dynamics 365


The conversation form in Omnichannel is now updated to allow agents to view and edit customer and case information more efficiently.

To enable it, Inside Customer Service Admin Center app – navigate to Workspaces >> Active Conversation form settings (Manage)

Before we enable it let us have a look at the exiting conversation form.

Now let us enable and compare it with the enhanced one.

We can see the form displaying a Customer 360 Card for Customer (Contact or Account), which also allows for inline editing of details from within the Conversation form, and a similar card showing case details and allowing for inline editing. The fields that are displayed are configurable.

Another change is the color-coded priority and case status field for easy discoverability for the agents.

Hope it helps..

How to – switch between Enhanced and Legacy (Default) multisession workspace in Customer Service Workspace

To make changes in the notification, we need to create a new notification template as we cannot update the box notification template.

Navigate to Agent Experience >> Workspaces >> Notification Templates (Manage)


Here we will create a new notification template to be used in place of Voice call – incoming authenticated – default template

For our custom template, we have made the following changes –

Increased the timeout value, and changed the text for Accept and Reject buttons.

Added notification fields and enabled Desktop notification.

Let us update one of our workstreams to use this custom notification template.

Navigate to Customer Support >> Workstreams – Open the workstream and open the Advanced Settings and update the Incoming Authenticated template in the Agent notifications section.

We can see the changes reflected in the Notification.

And also in the desktop notification –

Fixed – Power Virtual Agents bots for voice not working (Dynamics 365 Customer Service Omnichannel)


We can configure aa PVA Bot for workstreams and when we install the voice channel demo, we can see a bot already configured for the demo workstream.

Recently in our case, the bot configured was not working and we were getting the below message on calling the workstream/voice channel configured.

“Sorry, we couldn’t serve you at this moment. Please call back later”

On removing the bot the workstream/channel was working properly.

We raised the Microsoft support ticket for the same and were suggested to create/configure a new bot instead of using the existing demo/trial one as it might give an issue because of being configured in a different environment.

On configuring a new bot the issue got fixed for us.

Hope it helps..
