Flex Conversations enhancements for managing agent tasks and creating Interactions events webhooks

Beginning today, agents can now leave and pause a task for any Flex Conversations channel, such as SMS or webchat. We’re expanding this functionality from only email tasks to all Flex Conversations tasks. 

Agents can also enter wrap-up after they leave or pause a task, so they can perform final wrap-up activities before completing a task. This ensures that agents have time to document their actions and also provides a more accurate report of their status.   

In addition, administrators and developers can now configure a webhook URL and subscribe to notifications about Interactions API events that occur during conversations. 

Event notifications can provide information about customer interactions or enable developers to trigger additional workflows after certain events. For example, when used with leave and pause functionality, Interactions event notifications enable you to trigger custom logic when a customer responds to a conversation the agent has left.
