Option Selector – Default Values and Dropdown Configuration

We’ve added support for setting a default value in the option selector and introduced new flexibility for how options are displayed.

What’s New:

  • Ability to set a default option automatically

  • Configure options to display as either:

    • List (radio buttons)

    • Dropdown menus

Why It’s Useful:
This gives administrators more control over how choice-based components render and ensures users always have a pre-selected, meaningful default.

Microsoft Teams – Presence Integration

We’ve delivered the first version of Teams presence integration, allowing agent presence in Chime to mirror their Microsoft Teams status.

Key Highlights:

  • Background task presence poller runs every 60 seconds (configurable via Background Tasks module)

  • Agent presence now updates automatically based on Teams presence

  • UI toggle to enable/disable Teams presence integration per user (manager and admin permissions respected)

  • When Teams presence is enabled, manual presence changes in Chime are overridden to match Teams

  • Disabled legacy behavior that marked agents as unavailable when SignalR browser connections were lost

Setup Requirements:

  • Requires a Graph API app registration with the following permissions:

    • Presence.Read.All

    • User.ReadBasic.All

Why It’s Useful:
This ensures presence is accurate and consistent across platforms, reducing manual updates and improving workflow reliability.

Microsoft Teams – App Installation Tracking and Adoption Dashboard

We’ve added Teams app installation tracking to better understand adoption and usage patterns.

New Features:

  • Lightweight database records capture user and installation information for every Teams app install

  • Tracks the last time a user engaged in a Teams chat with the bot

  • Tenant-level dashboard: View adoption stats in Admin → Chime Advanced → Teams Install Dashboard

  • Global dashboard available for administrators to see adoption across all tenants

  • Ability to retroactively reconstruct historical data from existing chat session logs

Why It’s Useful:
Provides valuable insights into how widely the Teams app is deployed and used, enabling better reporting and adoption strategies.

SolarWinds ITSM – Solutions (FAQ) API

We’ve introduced new API endpoints to pull SolarWinds Knowledge Base/FAQ data directly into Chime.

Available Methods:

  • GetAllSolutions(): Returns all available SolarWinds solutions

  • GetSolutionById(id): Retrieves a specific solution by its unique identifier

Why It’s Useful:
This enables tighter integration with SolarWinds ITSM, allowing solution data to be accessed programmatically and leveraged in Chime’s chat and workflow experiences.
