This use case describes the process to activate all configured channels at the same time, as opposed to the Activate Channel use case which is for individual channels. Some platforms allow the Agent to authenticate prior to becoming active. For these platforms, the Agent’s channels can be configured to remain inactive after authentication until the Agent chooses to activate them through this use case or Activate Channel.
