Oracle Accessibility Conformance Report

VPAT® Version 2.3 - April 2019

Name of Product:

Digital Assistant Web SDK 20

Product Description:

The Digital Assistant Client SDK for Oracle Web provides a widget that enables you to run a skill in a web page. Using the SDK, you can customize the look and behavior of this widget. The SDK connects to the Oracle Chat Server, the intermediary between the Oracle Web channel configured in Oracle Digital Assistant and the client. The chat server then passes messages to the skill for processing and delivers the skill's response to the client.
