Configuring the maximum number of days to retain active email contacts

Last Updated : Nov 15, 2021 |

About this task

Configure the maximum number of days that Engagement Designer (ED) and Work Assignment can retain active email contacts.

The default ED timeout value is 3 days. The default Work Assignment timeout value is 604800000 milliseconds, equivalent to 7 days. You can configure both of these values to retain active email contacts for a longer period. Avaya recommends configuring these timeout values to the same number of days. The maximum value for both is 24 days.

Note:

The maximum number of queued email contacts that Avaya Oceana® supports is a fixed limit. If you extend the maximum number of days that ED and Work Assignment can retain active email contacts, the maximum number of queued emails limit can be reached before the increased retention time expires. For more information about the supported maximum number of queued email contacts, see Capacity specifications.
