Enabling conversations for an Avaya Workplace Client

Last Updated : Oct 09, 2020 |
Prolog information
Presence Services uses the Conversations Enabled attribute to support conversations on Avaya Workplace Client.
Avaya Workplace Client does not support the Block IMs for users in Do-Not-Disturb (DND) state feature. Avaya recommends that you set the Block IMs for users in Do-Not-Disturb (DND) state attribute to False if the Conversations Enabled attribute is set to True to enable conversations for Avaya Workplace Client.
For more information, see IM Blocking in Do Not Disturb state.
If you set the Conversations Enabled attribute to True, Avaya recommends that you set the Offline IM Storage Enabled attribute to False. By default, Presence Services provides offline IM storage support for Avaya Workplace Client.
For more information, see Configuring offline IM storage.
