Administrator requirements for the Genesys Cloud embedded clients

Note: This article applies to Genesys Cloud Embeddable Framework, Genesys Cloud for Chrome, Genesys Cloud for Firefox, Genesys Cloud for Microsoft Teams, Genesys Cloud for Salesforce, and Genesys Cloud for Zendesk.
Note: To use single sign-on, your single sign-on identity provider must allow the single sign-on redirect window to be embedded. Otherwise, the client does not load. You see a blank area on-screen and an error message in the console.

    Notes:
    • Depending on where you access the permissions in Genesys Cloud, the permission names appear in different formats.
    • The integration looks for permissions, not roles, assigned to a user in Genesys Cloud. If the prerequisites are controlled by permissions and are not active for an agent, check the agent's permissions
