Genesys Cloud Collaborate provides comprehensive text formatting capabilities within chat interactions through both markdown syntax and a rich text toolbar interface. The platform supports two primary formatting categories: inline and paragraph formatting.
Inline formatting options include italic text (single asterisks or underscores), bold text (double asterisks or underscores), strikethrough (double tildes), highlighted text (backticks), and hyperlinks. URLs require http:// or https:// prefixes, while custom hyperlinks use bracket-parenthesis syntax [text](link).
Paragraph formatting features include headings (1-6 hash symbols for varying sizes), block quotes (greater-than symbol), bulleted lists (asterisks or hyphens), numbered lists (number-period-space format), nested lists (4-space indentation), and code blocks (triple backticks). Line breaks within lists and code blocks require Shift+Enter rather than standard Enter key usage to maintain formatting integrity.
Implementation requires precise syntax adherence and proper spacing to render correctly in the chat interface. Special technical considerations include backslash escaping to prevent markdown interpretation of special characters and mandatory spacing requirements for syntax placement. The standard Enter key should only be used upon message completion.
The platform supports additional related functionality including creating personal chat rooms, starting chats, sending chat messages, and formatting canned responses. Genesys Cloud includes a feedback mechanism allowing users to report documentation issues such as inaccurate or incomplete information, outdated content, or unclear presentation, with options to specify user roles including agent, administrator, developer/engineer, partner, supervisor, or support personnel.
