Ability to link conversations to leads
Currently it is only possible to link conversations to contact, account and case records. As part of our business process, we need to link conversations also to leads in order been able to migrate from our actual solution. Thanks
Validation on pre-chat survey questions
Can we add something which will apply validation to the pre-chat questions? One example: If I create a pre-chat survey field called "Email" I want to be able to ensure only valid email addresses are entered by the customer. (At the moment they can key any old rubbish into this field!)
Thank you for the feedback on the pre-chat survey capability. We are currently considering this as a part of future enhancements to the feature. Please continue to let us know examples you may use this in so we can make sure to account for them.

If the customer has been waiting “n” seconds for a web chat to start then we’d like to trigger an automated message to the customer. Something like “We can see you have been waiting longer than normal, we will be with you soon …”. I assume this message might need to repeat! Say every 2 minutes...
Thank you for the feedback. This is currently under review for our future plans. If there are other areas that you want to automate messages based on certain custom triggers, let us know!

Show Omnichannel Widget on Portal only if there is an active agent
At the moment it seems that the widget is available all the time unless you set your working hours. Would only want the chat widget to be shown when there is an online agent available (logged into the omnichannel customer service app)
Thanks for your feedback. This is a very valid suggestion and we are evaluating for future roadmap based on more customer feedback.
Omnichannel Self Service client visited page while the chat is active.
Currently the Self Service function collects the client context on the visited pages only on chat initialization. In some case like, like web retail representative customer assistance scenario, it would be profitable that all visited pages are recorded and displayed to the agent while chatting w...

URL shortening for Omnichannel post-converation survey
When you use the post-conversation survey in a channel, the url is very long and ugly.
Customer voice survey already let you create a short link.
It should be possible to use this short link in the conversation.

Sound notification for incoming chat requests
We would really like to be able to add a sound to an incoming chat request. Now the notification is a visual one, where you have keep looking at the screen. If you minimize the window with Omnichannel browser you will miss the incoming chat request. This makes multitasking as an agent impossible.
