Facilitating session-based read/write of context variables to share information across multiple microservices

摘要

The communication system includes a core system having a processor storing user variables representing user-specific information. A messaging system supports communication between a user and an automated bot agent over at least one user-chosen channel employing channel-agnostic context variables. A runtime system mediates a conversation session between user and bot agent, using at least one predefined context variable. A context mapping data store stores a mapping configuration representing a correlation between the channel-agnostic variable of the user-chosen channel and a field in the core CRM system. Using the context mapping data store, the messaging system responds to a communication from the user by querying the context mapping data store to acquire and pass to the runtime system the resolved mapping configuration values corresponding to the user-chosen channel for each defined context variable.
