GA Release - May 2020

The list below represents the features, updates, and fixes included in the Orbita Voice GA Release for May 2020.

Experience Manager

  • As an admin user, while deleting a persona, you will be prompted with a warning message if there are users associated with the persona. Upon confirmation, the persona will be deleted and the user associated with the deleted persona will be assigned to the existing default USERS persona.

  • Added a new property for App Settings that enables the admin user to set Wait time dynamically based on the text in the previous chat bubble.
    For example,

    msg.payload = { micInput: false, waitTime: 7000, waitSettings: { mode: 'dynamic', wpm: 200 }, }; return msg;

    The mode can be dynamic or static.

    • If set to dynamic, the duration of wait time animation will be calculated based on the number of words rendered on the previous bubble.

    • If set to static, the duration of wait time animation will be either response data wait time or application wait time.

  • You can customize the hover text over the chatbot icon.
    Place the below code in the settings object in the Bot View Template’s Settings tab.

    popover: { text: 'Hi there', waitTime: 3000, documentTitle: 'New Message!', titleChangeTime: 2000 }
