How do I associate a survey to Inlay chat?
Environment:
Chat
Oracle B2C Service
Resolution:
When concluding a chat session, the Embedded Chat Inlay uses the postChatClosingMessage to display information to the end user. By default, the string says “Thank you for chatting with us. You may close this window”. This answer will show how to integrate a Oracle B2C Service survey into this message. As this integration requires overwriting the default string, a configuration file with the string override will be necessary.
- Create a survey within Service Cloud. Typically, this would be a Website Link Survey.
- Click Survey URL on the survey ribbon.
- Paste/Copy the URL onto a text editor for examination
At this point the URL will have this format:
https://interface_name.custhelp.com/ci/documents/detail/5/survey_id/12/autorization_code
This is the generic URL for this survey and is broken down as follows:
- /interface_name.custhelp.com is the B2C support interface (ie. acme.custhelp.com)
- /ci/documents/detail is the location where the survey exists
- /5 represents that this is a survey
- /survey_id is the unique identifier for the survey being used and follows the “/5”
- /12 represents there exists an authorization code
- /authorization_code is a unique code for access to the survey
In order to associate the survey and the chat, a table and a primary id need to be associated to the survey.
- Add the following to the URL. Note: these are added within the URL and not at the end of the string
/6/223 – the 6 represents a table association, 223 represents the chat table.
/7/{ENGAGEMENT_ID} – the 7 represents a primary id association, while {ENGAGEMENT_ID} is the chat ID variable necessary to associate the survey and the chat engagement. This variable will be populated automatically by the chat inlay.
When completed the finished URL should look like this:
https://interface_name.custhelp.com/ci/documents/detail/5/survey_id/6/223/7/{ENGAGEMENT_ID}/12/autorization_code.
- Using the finished URL, overwrite the default postChatClosingMessage within the Inlay configuration JSON file with the appropriate wording. This string accepts link markdown. For example:
"postChatClosingMessage":"Thank you for chatting with us. Please complete our survey [Click Here](http://acme.custhelp.com/ci/documents/detail/5/11/6/223/7/{ENGAGEMENT_ID}/12/245cfe1718889dd43ee26d6654e354af8331c668)"
When clicked and completed, the survey will be associated with the unique chat engagement that just concluded.
Example of a Config file to launch a post-chat survey:
{
"inlays":{
"types":{
"inlay-oracle-chat-embedded":{
"strings":{
"title":"Example test",
"postChatClosingMessage":"Thank you for chatting with us. Please complete our survey [Click Here](http://acme.custhelp.com/ci/documents/detail/5/11/6/223/7/{ENGAGEMENT_ID}/12/245cfe1718889dd43ee26d6654e354af8331c668)"
}
}
}
}
}
Surveys from an external source may be added in a similar manner by including the survey link in the "postChatClosingMessage".

Please note that if you add the json file to be used in the data-oit-config-url parameter in the euf/assets directory, it will only work if you are using the Inlay widget on the Customer Portal pages, due to Cross Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) considerations. If you are hosting the Chat Inlay on an external website, you can either:
a) host the JSON externally with CORS headers, or
b) serve the JSON through a custom controller under /ci/custom/..., where you can control the headers
