This guide provides instructions to configure the audio source on the Genesys Cloud CX. The guide has dedicated audio configuration sections for omnidirectional and unidirectional communication types.

Difference between omnidirectional and unidirectional communication:

• Omnidirectional communication: Applicable for the Sanas users using features like Omnidirectional Noise Cancellation (2-way Noise Cancellation), Inbound Noise Cancellation, etc.
• Unidirectional communication: Applicable for the Sanas users using one-way noise cancellation or accent translation.
