Answer ID 12736   |   Last Review Date 11/10/2023

How can I enable the emoji menu for my Chat Agents?

Environment:

Chat, Browser UI, Engagement Panel
Oracle B2C Service

Resolution:

During a live chat session, it may be useful for agents to send emojis to the end user. 
 
For Chat Administrators to Enable the Emoji menu:
  • Create a custom configuration setting type Yes/No: CUSTOM_CFG_CHAT_EMOJI_ENABLE
  • Set it to Yes
For Agents to send Emojis to Customers:
  • During a live chat session in Browser UI, within the Rich Text Menu of the Public Response section
    • Click the “more” button (three vertical dots)
      • this may not be necessary if the Engagement Panel is expanded horizontally
    • Click the "Special characters" button
    • Then you will see the Emoji menu
