Genesys Interactive Insights
Also known as GI2.
- For Genesys Engage cloud customers, Genesys Interactive Insights (GI2) is deprecated as of November 20, 2020.
- For Genesys Engage on-premises customers, GI2 8.5 entered End of Life (EOL) on January 25, 2019 and End of Maintenance on July 28, 2020, and reaches End of Support on January 24, 2021.

Genesys Interactive Insights User's Guide
Genesys Interactive Insights (GI2) provides reports that summarize contact center activity and an entire universe of elements (the GI2_Universe) that support them.
This guide picks up where the Genesys Interactive Insights Deployment Guide leaves off. Begin to use this document only after you have configured Genesys Info Mart 8.1 and its supporting applications to measure and record contact center activity, installed and set up your BusinessObjects (BO) environment, and installed and imported the appropriate reports and universe. This document describes:
- how to manage the reports that are deployed with the GI2 8.1 release,
- how to create or modify reports and the supporting universe elements by using BO software,
- how universe elements are organized to paint a picture of contact center activity within your enterprise,
This document describes the 8.1.x release(s) of GI2. For other releases of GI2, visit the Genesys Customer Care website, or request the Documentation Library DVD, which you can order by e-mail from Genesys Order Management at Genesys Order Management. BusinessObjects Business Intelligence Platform (BI) 4.1 provides functionality similar to that provided by BO XI 3.1, though the names of some applications, tools, and options differ. Screen shots and BO software references in this document mostly pertain to BO 3.1 terminology.

GI2 is powered by:
- BO XI 3.1 software for GI2 releases 8.1.0 and 8.1.1.
