This section shows what kind of forms can be defined in order to collect information from customer before starting a new contact.
Data Collection is organized in forms, for each service you can define multiple ordered list of forms to be rendered. The order of the forms is static, but we are planning to add the feature to make it dynamic based on data selected or to add conditional forms visible only under a condition.
Each form is composed of multiple fields. Possible fields type are:
text (can be generic or specialized)
nickname
email
name
surname
phone
date
textarea
checkbox
radio
select
Each type has the following properties:
Property | Description | Notes | Localizable |
|---|---|---|---|
Name | Name used to identify the field | ||
Label | Label to be rendered in the UI | Can be localized | X |
isMandatory | If true the field is required | A * is added in the UI | |
isVisibleCustomer | If false the filed is hidden | Mainly use for mode auto to fetch info using JS evaluation | |
isVisibleAgent | False if the content is not intended to be shown to agent for privacy reason | ||
isEditable | False if user is not allowed to change default value | ||
custom_regexp | Regular expression for validating input | If input is not validated, an error message is shown when submitting the form. Not used for textarea | |
customMandatoryErrorMessage | Error shown when a mandatory field is not filled | X | |
customValidationErrorMessage | Error shown when input is not valid | X | |
dc_type | Type of field | Supported values are:
| |
options | Object whose properties are used as possible values | Used only for radio, select and checkbox | X |
value | field value | if mode is manual then it's considered as pre-filled value, if auto it's evaluted as a JS function returning a value | |
name | field name | Not visible in UI | |
mode | field mode | it describes how to use the value field. manual the value is used as default value, auto it's evaluated as a JS function |
