  Key Concepts: 
  OPTIONS ping is a feature of the SAP Contact Center Infrastructure (CRM-CCI) that allows users to check the availability of a contact center system. It sends a request to the system and receives a response indicating whether the system is available or not. This feature is useful for monitoring the health of a contact center system and ensuring that it is running properly. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use OPTIONS ping, users must first configure the CRM-CCI system with the appropriate settings. This includes setting up an OPTIONS ping URL, which is used to send requests to the system. Once configured, users can send an OPTIONS ping request to the system by entering the URL into their web browser or using a command line tool such as cURL.

  When configuring the CRM-CCI system for OPTIONS ping, it is important to ensure that the URL is secure and cannot be accessed by unauthorized users.
