Message Queue Performance Summary view

AI-generated summary

Genesys Cloud's Message Queue Performance view delivers comprehensive analytics and monitoring capabilities through the Analytics Workspace, enabling organizations to track and analyze message queue interactions across multiple dimensions with support for up to 50 simultaneous queues and 20 selectable columns. The system requires specific permissions across Analytics, Directory, Routing, UI, and Groups modules and is accessed via Menu > Analytics > Analytics Workspace with customizable time zone settings. Performance metrics include offer rates, answer percentages, abandon rates, Average Speed of Answer, Service Level, wait times, sentiment analysis, and topic tracking. Specific metrics—Offer, Answer %, Abandon %, ASA, Service Level, and Avg Wait—display only inbound interaction data, while other columns show both inbound and outbound metrics. Data processing for speech and text analytics requires up to 72 hours, particularly for asynchronous interactions such as email and messaging. The platform offers extensive filtering capabilities across agent skills, languages, interaction direction, contact methods, wrap-up codes, and message types across platforms including Apple Messages, Facebook, Instagram, SMS, WhatsApp, and X. Search filtering is limited to 200 total dimensions, and external tag data is unavailable for web chats. Date filtering options range from preset intervals to custom ranges spanning up to 2 years, with support for granular time period navigation. Additional filtering dimensions include outbound campaign details, journey information, and external contact data searchable by name, address, phone number, email, organization, and custom fields. Column management functionality allows users to customize table views through sorting, grouping, reordering via drag-and-drop or keyboard navigation, and width adjustment. Users can select up to 20 columns for display and reset views to default settings. Real-time updates pause when filters are applied; users must click Refresh to see current data. All column customizations require explicit saving. Users can view detailed queue information by clicking individual queue names, export data, and save customized views with applied filters and column settings. The analytics workspace supports queue filtering to populate aggregate data and display data in chart format via the Show/Hide chart icon. When aggregate data is unavailable, the row displays a " Row Unavailable" message. Interaction detail filtering allows users to toggle a filters panel and search or scroll through available filters, with the system recognizing that certain metrics apply only to specific filter types. Notable limitations include offer column data unavailability when filtering by user, partial phone number and email search restrictions, Line message type deprecation, external tag data unavailability for web chat interactions, and real-time update suspension during active filtering. Skills and languages filters reference ACD assignments rather than profile listings, and routing data availability begins September 5, 2020

Interactions filters

Filter	Description
Skills	Displays interactions with the routing skills assigned to the selected user. When one user views another user, divisional access is evaluated against the user being viewed, not against each individual skill assigned to that user. If you have permission to view a user, the Skills field displays all routing skills assigned to that user, regardless of the divisions to which those skills belong. To ensure that skill visibility aligns with your organization's access model, assign users only the skills that are intended to be visible to anyone who has permission to view that user. For example, Agent Annie and Supervisor Bert both belong to the Alpha division. Bert is assigned the Returns skill (Alpha division) and the Warranty Support skill (Bravo division). When Annie searches for Bert, Bert appears in the search results because Annie has permission to view users in the Alpha division. Because Annie can view Bert, the Skills field displays both the Returns and Warranty Support skills, even though the Warranty Support skill belongs to the Bravo division.
Languages	Displays metrics for interactions with agents who have the selected languages. Filter for multiple languages at one time by entering other languages and searching again.
Direction	Displays information about interactions of the selected directions.
Initial Direction	Displays information about interactions with the selected initial direction.
To	Displays information for interactions sent to the selected email addresses. Enter the full email address, such as person@example.com. The filter cannot search for a partial address. Filter for multiple addresses at one time by entering other addresses and searching again. When searching for a phone number, enter the entire phone number. For example, enter 13171002997 or 3171002997 to search for interactions sent to +1 317-100-2997. The filter cannot search for a partial phone number and it cannot process hyphens. You can omit the country code.
User	Displays information associated with the selected users. Filter for multiple users at one time by entering other users and searching again. To see and select inactive users in the User filter search, select Include inactive users. To see and select deleted users in the User filter search, select Include deleted users.

Message Type	Displays metrics for interactions of the selected ACD message type. This filter only appears if you set the media type filter to Message. If you do not have any message types selected, the view displays information for all message types. Genesys Cloud currently supports the following message types: Apple Messages for Business, Facebook, Instagram, Line, Open, SMS, Web Messaging, WhatsApp, and X (Twitter). Note: Line message type is deprecated, but Genesys Cloud still supports display filtering.

Notes:

Real-time updates stop while any filters in the Filters pane are active.
The skills and languages filters use agents’ ACD skills or languages, not the skills or languages listed in their profiles. To add an ACD skill or language to an agent, see Manage ACD skills.
