Initiates a flow to start a new task contact. For more information about task contacts, see Concepts: Tasks in Connect Customer in the Connect Customer Administrator Guide.
When using PreviousContactId and RelatedContactId input parameters, note the following:
-
PreviousContactId-
Any updates to user-defined task contact attributes on any contact linked through the same
PreviousContactIdwill affect every contact in the chain. -
There can be a maximum of 12 linked task contacts in a chain. That is, 12 task contacts can be created that share the same
PreviousContactId.
-
-
RelatedContactId-
Copies contact attributes from the related task contact to the new contact.
-
Any update on attributes in a new task contact does not update attributes on previous contact.
-
There’s no limit on the number of task contacts that can be created that use the same
RelatedContactId.
-
In addition, when calling StartTaskContact include only one of these parameters: ContactFlowID, QuickConnectID, or TaskTemplateID. Only one parameter is required as long as the task template has a flow configured to run it. If more than one parameter is specified, or only the TaskTemplateID is specified but it does not have a flow configured, the request returns an error because Connect Customer cannot identify the unique flow to run when the task is created.
A ServiceQuotaExceededException occurs when the number of open tasks exceeds the active tasks quota or there are already 12 tasks referencing the same PreviousContactId. For more information about service quotas for task contacts, see Connect Customer service quotas in the Connect Customer Administrator Guide.
Parameters:
-
instance_id(InstanceId) –The identifier of the Connect Customer instance. You can find the instance ID in the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the instance.
-
previous_contact_id(Optional[ContactId], default:None) –The identifier of the previous chat, voice, or task contact. Any updates to user-defined attributes to task contacts linked using the same
PreviousContactIDwill affect every contact in the chain. There can be a maximum of 12 linked task contacts in a chain. -
contact_flow_id(Optional[ContactFlowId], default:None) –The identifier of the flow for initiating the tasks. To see the ContactFlowId in the Connect Customer admin website, on the navigation menu go to Routing, Flows. Choose the flow. On the flow page, under the name of the flow, choose Show additional flow information. The ContactFlowId is the last part of the ARN, shown here in bold:
arn:aws:connect:us-west-2:xxxxxxxxxxxx:instance/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/contact-flow/846ec553-a005-41c0-8341-xxxxxxxxxxxx
-
attributes(Optional[Attributes], default:None) –A custom key-value pair using an attribute map. The attributes are standard Connect Customer attributes, and can be accessed in flows just like any other contact attributes.
There can be up to 32,768 UTF-8 bytes across all key-value pairs per contact. Attribute keys can include only alphanumeric, dash, and underscore characters.
-
name(Name) –The name of a task that is shown to an agent in the Contact Control Panel (CCP).
-
references(Optional[ContactReferences], default:None) –A formatted URL that is shown to an agent in the Contact Control Panel (CCP). Tasks can have the following reference types at the time of creation:
URL|NUMBER|STRING|DATE|EMAIL.ATTACHMENTis not a supported reference type during task creation. -
description(Optional[Description], default:None) –A description of the task that is shown to an agent in the Contact Control Panel (CCP).
-
client_token(Optional[ClientToken], default:None) –A unique, case-sensitive identifier that you provide to ensure the idempotency of the request. If not provided, the Amazon Web Services SDK populates this field. For more information about idempotency, see Making retries safe with idempotent APIs.
-
scheduled_time(Optional[Timestamp], default:None) –The timestamp, in Unix Epoch seconds format, at which to start running the inbound flow. The scheduled time cannot be in the past. It must be within up to 6 days in future.
-
task_template_id(Optional[TaskTemplateId], default:None) –A unique identifier for the task template. For more information about task templates, see Create task templates in the Connect Customer Administrator Guide.
-
quick_connect_id(Optional[QuickConnectId], default:None) –The identifier for the quick connect. Tasks that are created by using
QuickConnectIdwill use the flow that is defined on agent or queue quick connect. For more information about quick connects, see Create quick connects. -
related_contact_id(Optional[ContactId], default:None) –The contactId that is related to this contact. Linking tasks together by using
RelatedContactIDcopies over contact attributes from the related task contact to the new task contact. All updates to user-defined attributes in the new task contact are limited to the individual contact ID, unlike what happens when tasks are linked by usingPreviousContactID. There are no limits to the number of contacts that can be linked by usingRelatedContactId. -
segment_attributes(Optional[SegmentAttributes], default:None) –A set of system defined key-value pairs stored on individual contact segments (unique contact ID) using an attribute map. The attributes are standard Connect Customer attributes. They can be accessed in flows.
Attribute keys can include only alphanumeric, -, and _.
This field can be used to set Contact Expiry as a duration in minutes and set a UserId for the User who created a task.
To set contact expiry, a ValueMap must be specified containing the integer number of minutes the contact will be active for before expiring, with
SegmentAttributeslike {"connect:ContactExpiry": {"ValueMap" : { "ExpiryDuration": { "ValueInteger": 135}}}}.To set the created by user, a valid AgentResourceId must be supplied, with
SegmentAttributeslike {"connect:CreatedByUser" { "ValueString": "arn:aws:connect:us-west-2:xxxxxxxxxxxx:instance/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx/agent/xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx"}}}. -
attachments(Optional[TaskAttachments], default:None) –List of S3 presigned URLs of task attachments and their file name. You can have a maximum of 5 attachments per task.
