Agent Experience with SalesForce Assist
Agents must use the same app in Service Cloud Voice that you added SalesForce Assist to. If they use a different app, they won't be able to see the real-time continuous transcript of the call. When using this app, the transcripts are automatically displayed for all inbound and outbound calls. If the agent or the contact put the call on hold, transcription is paused until the call resumes.
The content of the transcript depends on how SalesForce Assist is configured. It can display the agent side only, the contact side only, or both the agent and the contact.
