What's a Service

Understand what services are and how you can set them up

A service is a named workspace for managing all necessary configurations and components required to automate a specific customer interaction use case/customer journey.

As a best practice, we recommend you to use a separate service for each customer interaction use case. Doing so allows you to segregate flows, rules and API credentials associated with each use case and view statistics for that use case.

Every service has a unique service key and JWT tokens that can be used to authenticate and authorize external triggers for invoking Messaging APIs, Custom Event API, and Inbound Webhooks.

Within a service, you can:

The following stats are available on the Services screen for each live service:

  • Total Requests
  • Flows Executed
  • Delivery Rate

There is no upper limit on the number of services you can create within an Webex Connect account.
