Genesys Cloud enables organizations to integrate third-party text-to-speech (TTS) engines through the Genesys TTS Connector integration, supporting up to 10 connector instances with standardized PCM audio output at 8kHz. The integration process requires accessing Menu > IT and Integrations > Integrations, locating the Genesys TTS Connector tile, and installing it through the Configuration tab, where mandatory properties include the URI for fetching voices, the URI for synthesizing text, and the HTTP request method for text synthesis.
Optional parameters allow customization of path attribute names for GET requests (text, voice, language, audioformat, samplerate) and JSON attributes for voice list identification (voices, name, language, gender, type). Organizations can optionally designate PCI compliance status, enabling use in secure flows when set to True, though such use occurs at the organization's own risk and references the PCI DSS customer responsibility matrix for compliance considerations.
Configuration requires a credentials setup process accessed through the Credentials tab, where users select the appropriate credential type from supported options, enter required credentials, and save the configuration. Activation occurs through the Status column by clicking the Inactive status, opening the Change Status dialog, and confirming activation to change the integration status to Active.
Key limitations include lack of support for audio payloads in JSON bodies (affecting Google TTS voices) and SSML (affecting Microsoft Azure custom voices), with the connector supporting only audio streams. Unsupported voices include Google Chirp 3 and Microsoft Azure TTS voices. The connector caches voice lists upon initial activation; adding new voices to provider accounts requires disabling and re-enabling the integration after a minimum 30-minute interval to refresh available voice options.
