Account tab

• Auto-close inactive engagements: Allows you to set the amount of time after which inactive engagements will end.
• Messaging Flow Widgets Display Name & Avatar: Allows you to customize the name and avatar for the messages sent by flow widgets.
• Typing Delay: Allows you to set the minimum length of time to show a typing indicator to consumers before a message is sent. 
• Verified Subdomains: Allows you to add subdomains to associated domains to create a list of acceptable URLs for your Virtual Agent engagements. 
• Data Retention: Gives you the option to allow Zoom to delete data after a specified amount of time.
• Communications content storage location: Allows you to where communications content will be stored.
• Consumer Authentication: Allows you to securely identify a consumer and receive related consumer information so that your Contact Center can leverage the data.
  • Authentication Endpoint: The Zoom Virtual Agent Web SDK will perform a GET API request when the consumer begins the engagement and when the page is reloaded. This endpoint should return a signed JWT containing information about the consumer.
  • Encryption Type: Select between ES-256 and RSA-256.
  • JWT Public Key: This is ES256 or RSA256 public key that Zoom will use to verify the JWT signature. 

Note: The Typing Delay, Verified Subdomain, Data Retention, and Consumer Authentication settings are shared with Contact Center settings. The value you enter here is linked to Zoom Contact Center's Preferences page. Any changes you make to the value will also be updated on the other side.
