Why: Contact center version 21 includes several key capabilities:

  • Introduces retry logic with exponential backoff for the Contact Lens processor, KVS Transcriber, and post-call analysis to reliably handle rate-limiting responses from the Conversation Service.
  • Updates the Callback Telephony API to support a scheduled routing date and time parameter, enabling better control over callback execution flows. See Using the Telephony Integration API, and Request a Callback.
  • Includes logic to ensure call recordings are only uploaded when there’s an actual rep interaction, preventing IVR-only recordings from incorrectly appearing on voice call records.
  • Provides lambda enhancement to dynamically generate and pass JWT tokens into the User-to-User Information (UUI) section during SIP transfers.
  • Enables Transit Gateway and pipe creation operations for Salesforce Voice with Amazon Connect setups through updated Service Control Policies (SCPs).
  • Resolves a timing conflict during CloudFormation bucket configuration to prevent stack creation failures in Salesforce Voice with Partner Telephony from Amazon Connect setups.
  • Introduces a contact ID ownership check in voicemail audio processing to prevent data corruption and ensure complete recordings under high-load conditions.
  • Addresses multiple security vulnerabilities and upgrades infrastructure dependencies to ensure compliance.
  • Introduces a new Lambda function to retrieve recording URLs from cache or entity for Voicemail Drop and Voicemail Greeting features.
