Cisco Finesse Services
You can access the following Finesse services from the CLI:
-
Cisco Finesse Notification Service: This service is used for messaging and events. If this service is not started, you cannot view call events, agent state changes, or statistics, and the Finesse Desktop will not load after sign-in.
-
Cisco Finesse Tomcat: This service contains all deployed Finesse applications. A restart of the Cisco Finesse Tomcat service requires that all agents sign out and sign back in.
The deployed applications in the Cisco Finesse Tomcat service include:
-
Finesse Desktop application: Provides the user interface for agents and supervisors.
-
Finesse Rest API application: Provides integration with the Cisco CTI Server for the Finesse desktop and Finesse administration application. The APIs available to a user depends on the role associated with that user's credentials. This application also provides a programming interface that can be used by third-party applications that are written to use the Finesse REST API.
-
Finesse Administration application: Provides the administrative operations for Finesse.
If a Cisco Finesse service-related problem exists, restart a Finesse service as a last resort. Most service-related problems cannot be corrected by restarting a service. Restart A Cisco DB only if the service is down.
