Configuration Options Reference

Modified in 8.5.107, 8.5.108, 8.5.109, 8.5.110, 8.5.111

This page provides descriptions and explanations of Genesys Mobile Services-specific options.

Important
Starting in 8.5.108, new options have been added to the Genesys Mobile Services Options Reference. This content is under development and might not be comprehensive or completely up to date.

Overview

By default, the Options tab for your Genesys Mobile Services Application object contains several sections with configuration values.

  • Log — Standard log file options for this Application object. For more information about these options, refer to your Genesys Framework documentation.
  • gms — Configuration settings used across different services.
  • ors — Configuration settings for the Orchestration Server.
  • push — Configuration settings for the Notification sub-service.
  • resources — Configuration details for handling of resource groups.
  • server — This section describes configuration options specific to each Genesys Mobile Services Application instance.
  • service.servicename — Every service you want to provide using this instance of Genesys Mobile Services can have a custom entry created using this format. The default installation provides two examples:
    • service.request-interaction
    • service.query
  • port_restrictions — Configuration settings for port restrictions.
  • log filters — Configuration settings for log filters hiding data.
  • reporting — Setting for URS statistics reporting.
  • stat.statname — You can ask Genesys Mobile Services to open one or more Stat Server statistics on startup. This section describes the formatting.
  • chat — Additional chat settings.
  • callback — Additional callback settings.

[business-attributes] Section

map-names

Section: business-attributes
Default Value: false
Valid Values: String
Changes Take Effect: Immediately


Set to true to return the Names of Business Attribute Values instead of DB IDs in the responses for GET operations; false (default) to return the DB IDs of Business Attribute Values in the responses for GET operations.

resourcename.fieldname

Section: business-attributes
Default Value:
Valid Values:
Changes Take Effect: Immediately


Associates a Business Attribute key with the name of the Business Attribute configured in the proper tenant.

  • Possible resource name values are:
    • Service
    • State
    • Task
  • Possible field name values to map are:
    • type (for service type)
    • disposition
    • application_type
    • resource_type
    • media_type
  • Such as, for instance: Service.service_type, Task.disposition, State.media_type.
Important
  • If there is no configuration for a given field, Context Services automatically allows any valid integer value for this field. In this case, your application is responsible for the value's validity.
  • A Business Attribute can be mapped to several resource fields. For instance, the Service.media_type and Task.media_type string can both point to the "MediaType" Business Attributes.

[callback] Section

_enable_in_queue_checking

Section: callback
Default Value: true
Valid Values: true, false
Changes Take Effect: Immediately


Added in: 8.5.109.05
If true, prevents the callback creation if the same customer number has already two callbacks in the queue; if false, does not check whether the customer is already in queue when creating the callback. This option applies to both immediate and scheduled callbacks.

_enable_throttle_header_parameters

Section: callback
Default Value: true
Valid Values: true, false
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Introduced: 8.5.111.04

If true, applies the throttling to the header parameters that are configured in the _throttle_request_parameters option. You can configure two types of parameters in the _throttle_request_parameters option:

  • Callback request body's parameters
  • Callback request header's parameters. If the same parameter name exists in both header and body with different values, and if this option is true, the system applies the throttling to the header value and ignores the body value.

For example, let's consider _throttle_request_parameters=_customer_number, user_id, where user_id is a parameter passed in the Callback request header and where _customer_number is passed in the request as a body parameter. If _enable_throttle_header_parameters=true, by default, the system will allow a maximum of 6 immediate callback requests issued from the same user_id per day (24 hours). If set to false, there is no restriction for the callback requests issued from the same user_id.

_throttle_callbacks_per_service_1

Section: callback
Default Value: 500
Valid Values: Any positive integer
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Introduced: 8.5.109.05

Specifies the maximum number of callbacks per service for the duration set in _throttle_ttl_1. A second limitation can be introduced with the options _throttle_callbacks_per_service_2 and throttle_ttl_2. Genesys recommends using these options to prevent a high rate of callback requests in a given period of time. For instance, to set a limit of 500 callbacks in 5 minutes, but not more than 1000 callbacks in 1 hour, use the following configuration:

_throttle_callbacks_per_service_1=500
_throttle_ttl_1=300
_throttle_callbacks_per_service_2=1000
_throttle_ttl_2=3600

_throttle_customer_number_limit

Default Value: 6
Valid Values: Any positive integer
Changes Take Effect: Immediately
Introduced: 8.5.109.05
Discontinued: 8.5.110.07

Specifies the maximum number of immediate callback requests that a given customer number can request per day. You can set the list of parameters to apply this throttling in the option _throttle_request_parameters.

Starting in 8.5.110.07, this option is discontinued. Use option _throttle_request_parameters_limit instead.

    [notification] Section

    unsubscribe-delay

    Section: notification
    Default Value: 0
    Valid Values: Any positive integer
    Changes Take Effect: Immediately
    Introduced: 8.5.109.05

    Time in seconds to wait for deleting notification subscriptions. In scenarios where the publish notification and the delete subscription requests are received concurrently, the subscription may be deleted before the notification gets published. If you set this option to a value greater than 0, you will force GMS to wait for the specified duration before deleting the subscription and this will allow the pending push notifications to be sent out.

    [ors] Section

    Modified in 8.5.107

    _ors_lb_strategy

    Section: ors
    Default Value: circular
    Valid Values: circular, linear

    Refresh rate of the ORS Load balancer in milliseconds. This option value must be greater than or equal to 30,000 (30 seconds). By default, all ORS URL values are checked every 45 seconds.

    [port_restrictions] Section

    You can control port access to GMS APIs by adding a port_restrictions section in the Options tab of GMS configuration, at the node level or cluster level. This section is optional and not defined in the default template. The content of this section is a list of key/values, where key is an URI pattern (/genesys/1/storage/*, /genesys/1/service/*, /genesys/1/service/request-interaction, and so on), and the value is a list of ports or a port range.


    Example [port_restrictions] section:

    Option Name Option Value Description
    /genesys/1/storage* 80-90 Storage API will be accessible from port 80 to port 90.
    /genesys/1/service/* 92-98,100 Services API will be accessible from port 92 to port 98, plus the port 100.
    Important
    • There are no default values or default option names. You can define various URL patterns; such as /genesys/1/resource*, /genesys/1/resource*, /genesys/1/service/*, /genesys/1/service/request-interaction, and so on.
    • If the request is sent on another port, an HTTP error 403 Forbidden occurs.
    • The Admin UI and APIs not listed in the port_restrictions section will be available on all ports listed in the port_restrictions section.

    See Restricting Ports for further information about these configuration options. Changes in this section require an update to the jetty-http.xml file on all GMS nodes, and then restarting GMS.

    [push] Section

    Changes take effect: After restart.

    The push configuration includes three logical groups of options: general configuration, push provider configuration, and OS-specific message formatting. For more information about providers and OS-specific message formatting refer to Genesys Mobile Services Push Notification Service.

    It is possible for some mandatory options to be absent in this section. In this case, the corresponding push type will be disabled (even if enabled using the push.pushEnabled option) and a log entry will be created.

    Important
    For security reasons, if you wish to hide some private keys that are specific to the notification mechanism, you can define sensitive options in a dedicated section.

    Common Notification Options

    customhttp.url

    Section: push
    Default Value:
    Valid Values: Any valid URL
    Changes Take Effect: After restart


    Mandatory URL where the notifications will be pushed. The subscriber must provide a URL that will be invoked. GMS posts the payload to this URL (using HTTP POST). The Payload is a JSON object that contains two properties: the deviceId, which is the custom id provided at subscription time by the subscriber, and the message, which is the notification message.

    This option describes the provider configuration used for accessing the target (APPLE APNS service, HTTP address).

    You can use the HTTPS scheme without adding the server certificate if you configure the http.ssl_trust_all option to true in the [gms] section.

    If you do not use the http.ssl_trust_all option, add the server certificate to the Java cacerts.

    For example, in a Linux platform:

    keytool -import -alias genesys -keystore /etc/pki/java/cacerts -file /security/custom_https_server_certificate.crt -noprompt -storepass changeit
    

    defaultSubscriptionExpiration

    Section: push
    Default Value:
    Valid Values: Any integer (>=30)
    Changes Take Effect: After restart


    Default subscription expiration (in seconds). If the option is not set or if you assign an incorrect value, the default value (30) will be used.

    Section: push
    Default Value: Notice.TypingStarted,Notice.TypingStopped
    Valid Values:
    Changes Take Effect: After restart


    Comma-separated list of the following events:

    • Notice.TypingStarted
    • Notice.TypingStopped
    • Notice.Joined
    • Notice.Left
    • Notice.PushUrl
    • Notice.Custom
    • Message.Text

    A comma-delimited list that sets the default value for the _filtering_chat_events service parameter. By default, this list is set to "Notice.TypingStarted,Notice.TypingStopped".

    pushEnabled

    Section: push
    Default Value: comet
    Valid Values: android, gcm, ios, httpcb, orscb, customhttp, fcm,comet
    Changes Take Effect: After restart.
    Modified: 8.5.113.10, 8.5.112.05

    A comma-delimited list of strings that describe the enabled push types. Currently, the following push types are supported:

    • android
    • gcm
    • ios
    • httpcb
    • orscb
    • customhttp
    • fcm (starting in 8.5.112.05)
    • comet (starting in 8.5.103.10)

    Any other push type will be ignored. If an option value is not set, then it will be handled as empty string option value (that is, push will be disabled for all supported types and the push service will not work).

    Note: Starting in 8.5.103.10, this option requires the default value (comet) even if you do not enable push notifications. If you enable push notifications, use one of the above valid values.

    apple.content-available

    Section: push
    Default Value:
    Valid Values: Any string
    Changes Take Effect: After restart


    Set this key with a value of 1 to indicate that new content is available and let the remote notification act as a silent notification. This is used to support Newsstand apps and background content downloads. Newsstand apps are guaranteed to be able to receive at least one push with this key per 24-hour window.

    When a silent notification arrives, iOS wakes up your app in the background so that you can get new data from your server or do background information processing. Users aren’t told about the new or changed information that results from a silent notification, but they can find out about it the next time they open your app.

    apple.keystore

    Section: push
    Default Value:
    Valid Values: Valid file path

    Default Value:
    Valid Values: not empty
    Changes Take Effect: After restart.
    Discontinued: 8.5.114.09

    An arbitrary string that is used to collapse a group of like messages when the device is offline, so that only the last message gets sent to the client. This is intended to avoid sending too many messages to the phone when it comes back online. Note that since there is no guarantee of the order in which messages get sent, the "last" message may not actually be the last message sent by the application server

    android.delayWhileIdle

    Section: push
    Default Value: false
    Valid Values: true, false
    Changes Take Effect: After restart.
    Discontinued: 8.5.114.09

    Firebase Cloud Messaging

    Introduced in: 8.5.112

    Due to recent changes in Google Cloud Messaging, GMS now supports Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM). To configure Native Push Notification through Firebase Cloud Messaging, you can either specify an apiKey or create a dedicated section to secure passwords (recommended for production environments).

    Development
    [push]
    fcm.apiKey=<serverKey>
    pushEnabled=fcm
    Production
    [push]
    fcm=fcmsection
    pushEnabled=fcm
      
    [fcmsection]
    password=***** (<serverKey>)

    fcm.apiKey

    Section: push
    Default Value: No default value
    Valid Values: String

    The secret key associated to the application. See Microsoft Official documentation.

    wns.notificationType

    Section: push
    Default Value:
    Valid Values:
    Changes Take Effect: After restart


    Type of notification that GMS will send to the Windows application. This value must match the X-WNS-Type header. For example, you can specify a toast notification by setting this option to wns/toast.

    wns.sid

    Section: push
    Default Value:

    XML string that defines the notification. For example, to set up a toast notification, you can set this option to:

    <toast><visual><binding template="ToastText01"><text id="1">bodyText</text></binding></visual></toast>

    push.provider options

    Each provider can contain 2 channels for message sending - production and debug for each target type. The provider-affiliated options enlisted above describe the production channel. For each provider-related option <option-name> the sibling option can be provided with name debug.<option-name>. Such options will describe the provider-specific configuration of debug channel for corresponding target type. The debug channel will be enabled for enabled target type only if all mandatory options will be specified for debug channel. The OS-message formatting options do not have production-debug differentiation.

    push.provider.providername Section

    It is possible to create providers by adding push.provider.providername sections which contain the appropriate credential configuration options that are associated with a given provider. This allows you to control and isolate notifications and events between a given provider and the associated services/applications that are using it. This type of provider name section can only contain provider-related options (as listed in push section). All providers are isolated - if the option is not specified in provider's section, then it is not specified. If a mandatory option is missing then the corresponding target type will not be enabled, even if that type is present in the pushEnabled option.

    Please note that we have the following restriction on providername: it may only contain alphanumeric characters, the underscore (_), and the minus sign (-).

    push.provider.event Section

    You can define the event definitions associated across providers by adding your push.provider.event section, and then setting the appropriate OS-specific attribute options within. This will allow you to add OS-specific attributes to a published event message that is going to any provider’s push notification system. This section can contain OS formatting-related options. All other options will be ignored. For more information about providers and OS-specific message formatting refer to Genesys Mobile Services Push Notification Service.

    push.provider.event.eventname Section

    You can define the events associated across providers by adding a custom push.provider.event.eventname section, and then setting the appropriate OS-specific attribute options within. This will allow you add OS-specific attributes to a published event message that is going to a specific channel for given group of events tags.

    • This section can contain OS formatting-related options.
    • All other options will be ignored.
    Important
    For more information about providers and OS-specific message formatting, see Push Notification Service.


    For instance, you can create a push.provider.event.chat section to define options for chat events. The following configuration samples show how to configure iOS chat push alert text for chat events.

    Configuring iOS Chat Push Alert Text Without Localization

    1. Edit your GMS application (with Configuration Manager for example) and select the Options tab.
    2. Create a push.provider.event.chat.newagentmessage section.
    3. Click New to set the apple.alert parameter to an accurate value; for instance, New message from Agent.

    Configuring iOS Chat Push Alert Text Using Localization

    1. Edit your GMS application (with Configuration Manager for example) and select the Options tab.
    2. Create a push.provider.event.chat.newagentmessage section.
    3. Click New to set the apple.alertMessage.loc-key parameter to CHAT_NEW_AGENT_MESSAGE.
    4. Click New to set the apple.alertMessage.action-loc-key parameter to ACTION_KEY.
    Important
    CHAT_NEW_AGENT_MESSAGE and ACTION_KEY are keys to lookup the string values for the current language in the Localizable.strings resource of the iOS application. See also the official Apple documentation about Localized Formatted Strings.

    push.provider.providername.event.eventname Section

    You can define the event definitions associated with given provider by adding your push.provider.providername.event.eventname section, and then setting the appropriate OS-specific attribute options within. This will allow you add OS-specific attributes to a published event message that is going to a specific provider and channel for given group of events tags. This section can contain OS formatting-related options. All other options will be ignored. For more information about providers and OS-specific message formatting refer to Genesys Mobile Services Push Notification Service.

    List Object Options

    Each section in the Annex is a group that should have distinct list options specified. Changes take effect: Immediately.

    Option Default Description
    _allocation_strategy
    RANDOM, LOCAL, CLUSTER
    Optional
    RANDOM Supported strategies:
    • RANDOM—Allocate a randomly selected resource from the group. No reservations or locks are made, so the same resource can be selected by different users at the same time.
    • LOCAL—A resource is allocated from the group and reserved/locked, so that only one user can hold it at the time. For the resource to return to the group it should be released either by the corresponding API call or by a timeout.
    • CLUSTER—A resource is allocated from the group and reserved/locked through the GSG cluster, so that only one user can hold it at the time. For the resource to return to the group it should be released either by the corresponding API call or by a timeout.
    _booking_expiration_timeout
    Integer (s)
    Optional
    30 Determines the maximum amount of time, in seconds, that a resource may be allocated. If the resource is not released before this time limit elapses, it is automatically returned to the pool of available resources. This option is used with the LOCAL and CLUSTER allocation strategies.
    _backup_resource
    String
    Optional
    String The resource returned if there are no regular resources available. This option is used with the LOCAL and CLUSTER allocation strategies.

    List Entries

    Changes take effect: Immediately.

    Option Default Description
    All keys not starting with # or _
    String
    Optional
    N/A The value is put into the pool of resources. The option name may be anything (since that value is not currently used).

    The following screenshot shows an example of an application object configured in Configuration Manager.

    Gsg list.png

    Example

    [Dnis_Pool]
     _allocation_strategy = LOCAL
     _booking_expiration_timeout = 20
     dnis1 = 1-888-call-me1
     dnis2 = 1-888-call-me2
     dnis3 = 1-888-call-me3

    Note: For testing purposes, Genesys recommends that you include at least three numbers in the pool. If only a single number is defined in the pool, when the API call is made, that number is allocated for 30 seconds (default). If another API call is made before the number is returned to the pool, an error will occur. Alternatively, if using a single number, use _allocation_strategy = RANDOM.


    [server] Section

    Modified in 8.5.107

    _ors

    Section: server
    Default Value:
    Valid Values:
    Changes Take Effect: Immediately


    Comma-separated list of ORS URLs.

    Section: server
    Default Value:
    Valid Values: Any integer
    Changes Take Effect: Immediately


    This value is a range of access_code; the value must be unique for each GMS node across the cluster. GMS will randomly choose within this range the access_code_prefix that it will associate as the prefix for access_code. If the option is not present, GMS will use the nodeId value instead. An example range is 455,456-458 where the prefix can be 455, 456, 457, or 458.

    dateFormat

    Section: server
    Default Value:
    Valid Values:

    Default Value:
    Valid Values: http://<hostname>:<port>/ or https://<hostname>:<port>/
    Changes Take Effect: Immediately


    Specifies the external URL used by the Storage Service to allow the retrieval of a binary attachment. Configure this option in the case of a Load Balancer deployment.

    The valid value is http://<hostname>:<port>/, where:
    • <hostname> is used by the cluster service to identify a node
    • <port> is used by the cluster service to identify a node.

    The <port> value must be the same as the GMS port described in the jetty configuration file, otherwise, an alarm will be displayed in Solution Control Interface (SCI) and GMS will stop.

    gsgadmin_redirect

    Section: server
    Default Value: default
    Valid Values:
    Changes Take Effect: Immediately


    Configures the host and port to use in the redirection message that is sent by GSG Admin upon logout process. In a load balancing deployment, you should set up this option to make sure that GMS redirects to the Load Balancer address instead of the local GMS.
    The possible values for this option are the following:

    • default—Redirects to the local GMS instance (default behavior).
    • external_url_base—Uses the value of external_url_base for the redirection.
    • <host>:<port>—Specifies another URL to use for the redirection.

    Limitation: Internet Explorer may not correctly depict the port redirection set in external_url_base.

    max-sessions

    Section: server

    The default InetAddress.getLocalHost() value will be used in the most cases. Change this configuration value if you have issues obtaining the local name when your environment has multiple network interfaces. In this scenario, to ensure GMS internode communication, set this option's value to the IP Address used by the Jetty interface (which is not configurable).

    This option is required for internode communication.

    web_port

    Section: server
    Default Value: 80
    Valid Values: Valid TCP port; for HTTPS internode communication, 8443 or check either your jetty configuration or restriction port
    Changes Take Effect: Immediately


    Sets a port different from the port that GMS uses. Note: GMS uses port 8080, which can be changed in the jetty-http.xml file. This option can be used in the case of proxy role of the customer to forward requests.

    At startup, GMS checks that a GMS is available on the port specified by web_port. If a GMS is not available, the web_port option alarm (EventId 2002) is thrown.


    Required to ensure the GMS internode communication.

    web_scheme

    Section: server
    Default Value: http
    Valid Values: http or https

    Valid Values: Long (bytes)
    Changes Take Effect: After restart


    Allowed maximum size before uploads are refused.


    Configuration Use Cases for web_host and Admin UI

    In scenarios that involve internode communication, the value of the web_host option can determine the successful display of the GMS nodes status in the Admin UI. Check the examples below and edit this option accordingly.

    Use case Action Comment
    The Configuration Server hosts do not have IP addresses and no DHCP has been setup, or you cannot resolve the hostname for any other reason Set the web_host option to the node's IP address for each GMS node In the Admin UI, the node status will be true but the node_hostipaddress field in the IP address response will be: <not provided>
    The Configuration Server hosts do not have IP addresses and the GMS host includes several network interfaces Set the web_host option to the node's IP address for each GMS node In the Admin UI, the node status will be true but the node_hostipaddress field in the IP address response will contain the IP address of another network interface of the host.
    The Configuration Server hosts have IP addresses N/A In the Admin UI, the node status will be true and the node_hostipaddress field in the IP address response will contain the correct IP address.

    [service.servicename] Section

    You can create customized services by adding your service.servicename section, and then setting the appropriate options within. Additional options vary depending on the type of service being created. For more information, refer to documentation for the corresponding service in the Genesys Mobile Services API Reference.

    For a list of the available options, refer to the Service option reference page.


    [stat.statname] Section

    This section defines Stat Server statistics that can be opened at startup by listing them in the [reporting] startup-statistics configuration option. You can also subscribe to these statistics using the Stat Service API. In either case, Genesys Mobile Services will initialize the statistics, start collecting the data from Stat Server, and place that data in the GMS cache.

    Please note that:

    • The cache is global and common to all GMS instances.
    • The statistics that are not used are removed and closed by a scheduled function every 10 minutes.
