  2. Digital channels - The integration unifies native Amazon Connect interactions, such as chat (including SMS, web chat, and social messaging), directly into one unified agent experience in Salesforce.
  3. Unified data and routing - Perhaps most importantly, the solution provides a single routing system for both Amazon Connect and Salesforce channels, intelligently directing calls, chats, and cases to appropriate self-service or human interactions.

This convergence means agents work from a unified console with real-time voice transcripts and complete customer context, eliminating the need to switch between systems.
