To get started, create (or use an existing) Apple ID with your company email, then set up an Apple Business Account through Apple Business Register. Next, sign up for Apple Messages for Business in the Apple Business Register and select the Genesys Cloud regional URL used by your Org under Messaging Platform along with Apple IDs. Finally, log in to Genesys Cloud and go to Admin → Message → Platforms → Create New Integration → Apple to complete the setup.
