Removing Engage Default Virtual Backgrounds in 22R2.2

The 22R2.2 release includes changes that remove support and availability of the default virtual backgrounds.

Users currently using one of the default virtual backgrounds must upload or select a new background after upgrading to 22R2.2 to continue to use virtual backgrounds.

Uploaded custom virtual backgrounds are deselected after upgrading to 22R2.2. Users must reselect their custom virtual backgrounds in their first meeting after the upgrade. Once reselected, the virtual background persists across all subsequent meetings.

Searching by Platform in CRM Help

The 22R2.2 release includes a Platform filter in the CRM Help search field. This field allows users to limit search results to pages that apply to a selected platform. Users can also select a platform without entering a search term to see topics available for the platform.

Improved Account Picker for Call Attendees

The 22R3.0 major release will include an improved account picker for call attendees. When searching for call attendees, users will be able to select multiple accounts and search on custom fields. Each custom field will display as a column in the search results.
