Six side-by-side implementations for NICE Guide on Azure lab hosts. Compare native UserHub embed vs WOW early-plant recovery vs full extended PoC tooling.
Minimal proof page with early localStorage plant + cxone('guide','init') only. Template from UserHub domain rules. Cross-subdomain and cross-TLD recovery verified.
Same plant flow with hardcoded chat_* channel IDs. Useful for teaching the mechanism; rules variant is preferred for production parity.
Hardcoded plant flow plus a second on-page button that launches chat clicks native GUIDE_CHANNEL_BUTTON — same trigger as the floating bubble.
Custom Launch plus hidePreSurvey and openEntrypoint('ff28ec15-…') after guide.init — skips pre-chat form and opens a fixed UserHub entry point.
Annotated, minimal WOW layer on the verbatim NICE Integrations embed: early plant, wow* URL transport (channel/button ids from NICE localStorage or URL), and Start Chat. No hardcoded chat_* channel or template ids.
Modular PoC: QR transfer, SMS/email links, serviceability inject, template toggle, forced guide.init, plus custom on-page chat launch button.
Same full UI as Extended, but no hardcoded channel or template — guide.init() only, channel discovered at runtime, custom launch button.
