Speak Text action to a call flow. The text to be spoken is entered in the action's Specific tab.
Speak Text action to a call flow. The text to be spoken is entered in the action's Specific tab.
This text can include combinations of:
-
Typed text sentences.
-
Call variables . For example:
-
Entering
$KEYwould be replaced when spoken by the last digits dialed within the call flow by the caller. -
If using database interaction, entering
$DBD[x]would be replaced by the current value of that database field. -
Entering
$CLIwould speak the caller's CLI, if available, back to them.

-
SSML XML tags can be added to alter how the text is spoken. For example, when 123 needs to be spoken as
one two three
rather thanone hundred and twenty-three
by entering <say-as interpret-as="number" format="digits">123</say-as>.
