Managing Voice and Video Resources
A voice or video file carries a piece of voice content. After a voice or video file is associated with an IVR flow, the system can play voices based on the file after a customer enters the IVR flow in a voice call. To enable voice playback, you need to create a voice or video file in advance based on site requirements.
