When an agent links an external contact during an interaction, Genesys Cloud adds a record of that interaction to that contact’s interaction history. The interaction history for a contact shows all the interactions that the contact has participated in, including callbacks, chat, email, message, and phone interactions.

You can view an external contact’s interaction history from a current interaction or through External Contacts.
