    Before you begin

    Role required: sn_aia.admin

    About this task

    Connect your Genesys Cloud contact center to a ServiceNow voice assistant using the Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) communication channel. After the integration is configured, Genesys Cloud routes calls to the ServiceNow SIP endpoint, where the AI voice agent handles the interaction. When call handling is complete, the integration supports transferring the caller to a live agent queue using the SIP REFER transfer method.

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Conversational Interfaces > Assistant Designer > Assistants.
    2. Find the voice assistant that you want to connect to Genesys Cloud service and select Edit.
    3. Select Communication channels from the guided setup navigation.
    4. In the Provider application field, select the provider application to deploy the voice assistant to.
    5. Select the Telephony provider tab.
    6. From the Select communication channels dropdown, select Session Initiation Protocol (SIP).
    7. From the CCaaS provider dropdown, select Genesys.

      Enter the Transfer number/address and note the following generated values. You will need these to configure the SIP trunk in your Genesys Cloud account.
