Virtual Agent-warning message 'The conversation is timing out, are you still there' does not appear

Hi everyone,

I am testing Virtual Agent inactivity timeout in ServiceNow and facing an issue.

Requirement:
Show a warning after 25 minutes of inactivity and automatically terminate the conversation after 30 minutes.

Current configuration:

com.glide.cs.idle_chat_reminder_timeout = 1500

com.glide.cs.idle_chat_cancel_timeout = 1800

com.glide.cs.start_idle_timeout_after_agent_response = false

Live Agent is disabled.(not activated in the initial phase)

Testing via Virtual Agent portal widget and in Teams

Time Out Abandoned VA Conversations scheduled job runs every 1 minute.

IdleChatHandler scheduled job runs every 1 minute.


The warning message ("The conversation is timing out, are you still there?") does not appear, and the conversation does not terminate as expected.

I also tested with smaller values (reminder = 60 sec, cancel = 120 sec), but the behavior is still the same.

Has anyone experienced this before or knows what additional configuration might be missing?

Thank you!
