My Status View (Genesys Cloud)

Summary

The My Status view in Genesys Cloud allows agents to monitor and control their current availability status within the contact center. This view shows whether the agent is available to receive interactions or currently in a non-routable state such as break, meeting, training, or offline.

Managing status correctly is critical for queue routing, workforce management adherence, and real-time reporting. When an agent changes their status, Genesys Cloud immediately updates their availability in the routing engine and operational dashboards.
