Store Voicemail

Folder or full file path

The folder is the valid directory path that holds the voicemail for review before sending. The folder can be empty, in which case the voicemail is not saved to a file.

If a folder is specified but not the filename, the filename is assigned automatically by the system.

All recorded files are in MP4 format.

Note

Only the MP4 file is saved, not the call information file.

ACD Voicemail

String

Name of the tenant's voicemail folder. If left blank, the tenant's default voicemail folder is used (default).

Interaction will ring at an agent as an ACD voicemail.

If set to none and Recipient or CC properties match the rules for ACD voicemail, ACD voicemail is created with SMTP services only.

If left blank or has a value other than none, ACD voicemail is created without SMTP services.

Note

See Examples below.

Segregation Group Id

Group ID used to filter voicemail items in Supervisor Message View.

Left blank by default.

When sending ACD voicemail over SMTP or when sending voicemail as an email with an attachment, specify the email address of the sender.

Recipients

String

Multiple email addresses can be delimited by a semi-colon (;).

If a recipient email address starts with voicemail, an ACD voicemail interaction is created and rings at an agent as a voicemail.

If a recipient email address matches one of the tenant’s email folders, an ACD email interaction is created and rings at an agent as an incoming email.

Left blank by default.

Note

See Examples below.

CC
