AWS connect documentation change

Service: connect · 2026-05-10 · Documentation low

File: connect/latest/adminguide/add-chat-to-website.md

Summary

Renamed 'Amazon Connect' to 'Connect Customer' throughout the documentation, including service references, API names, and UI elements. Updated security section to reference 'Connect Customer' for JWT key management and token verification.

Security assessment

The changes are purely rebranding updates replacing 'Amazon Connect' with 'Connect Customer'. No modifications were made to security mechanisms like JWT implementation, key rotation, or authentication flows. Security-related sections (Steps 2-3) retain identical functionality descriptions with only service name changes.
