The following sections walk you
through configuration of your Engagement Cloud environment to work
with the Augmented Reality accelerator.
Before you begin
Follow these steps to configure Engagement
Cloud for the AR demo:
Procedure
- Using an
administrative account for Engagement Cloud, login to the service.
- Click your
username and select Manage Sandboxes from the dropdown menu.
- Click the
plus icon to create a new sandbox.
Name your new sandbox and click the Save and Close button.
- Select your
new sandbox and click the Set as Active button.
- In the icon
list, select the Application Composer icon.
- Using the
tree navigation, open the Service Request standard object.
- Select Fields from the tree structure, and then
click the button to create a new field.
Select text as the field type for all of the fields that you create.
- Create the
field
AR_DeviceID
, which will
hold the reference to the device ID for the object in the AR experience.
This field will be used to search for existing service requests (SRs),
so it will be configured with an index.
The
field names in the editor are case-sensitive, therefore, it is important
to use the same cases as listed in this guide.
- Create the
field
AR_PartID
, which will
hold the reference to the part ID for the object node that is selected
in the AR experience. This field will be used to search for existing
SRs, so it will be configured with an index.
- Create the
field
AR_Temperature
, which
will hold the temperature for the object in the AR experience.
You can remove AR_
from the Display Label field or
you can change it to match your environment. The OIC flows look for
fields configured with the AR_
prefix in the Name field, therefore
it is important to follow this naming scheme for each field.
- Repeat the
same steps for
AR_RPM
, AR_Sound
, and AR_Vibration
.
- Publish the
sandbox using the Engagement Cloud standard publishing pattern.
Results
The fields
created in the previous steps will be visible through the data model
and API calls.
What to do next
After the
previous steps are complete, Engagement Cloud Knowledge must be configured
for use with the AR demonstration.
Note: Be sure to note the host name in your browser address bar for your
Engagement Cloud environment, too. This will be used to configure
OIC in a later step.
