NOTE: This is an early preview of Finesse 12.0, so this version of Finesse does not contain all of the features that will be available in 12.0. The features that are in the build have been tested thoroughly, but are not guaranteed to be bug free. The intention of this sandbox is to get a sneak peek into the new features of 12.0 or even get a head start to building your applications against the new 12.0 APIs!

Here is the link to the sandbox: https://devnetsandbox.cisco.com/RM/Diagram/Index/1b696887-ffee-4ea8-a2d7-2884d631619f?diagramType=Topology

Please note that this sandbox can be utilized by UCCE & PCCE customers too, as the Finesse features and UX redesign is equivalent on all deployments (unless there are nuances which are very specific to UCCX). The sandbox can be used to validate the UI/CSS elements across all deployments.

This sandbox is preconfigured with agents, phones, scripts, etc. So, reserve your Finesse for UCCX 12.0 DevNet Sandbox today for FREE!

We would like to know your thoughts. If you have any questions, issues, or comments, please leave them as a comment on this page. We will gladly take both positive and negative comments. Does your custom gadget not work in 12.0? It should, so let us know if it doesn’t! We look forward to your feedback.

Enjoy!
