Manage skill profile in Webex Contact Center
A skill profile is a set of skills, each with an assigned value, that you assign to an agent-based team or to an individual agent. For example, you can assign a skill of English, with a high level of proficiency in one skill profile and a lower level in another profile.
In Webex Contact Center, the system uses proficiency skill values to compare and:
- Filter agents for matching with this contact based on the contact skill requirements (in queues with skill requirements assigned in flow)
- Associate agents with skill-based queues having skill criteria assigned to queue
When the Best Available routing pattern is used, proficiency skill values also influence how the system routes contacts. Normally, the system uses the actual proficiency value in score calculation, because a higher skill score indicates a stronger match. Except when a skill requirement or criterion uses the less-than-equal-to (<=) condition, the system inverts that specific proficiency value of the agent during score calculation. That is, effective_skill_value = (10) minus (actual_skill_value). This ensures that a lower score indicates a stronger match.
