Here you can add more extensions, or click on the edit symbol on the right hand side of an extension listed to manage/delete existing ones, here you will also have the option to add a custom voicemail message for this extension line.

Extension Voicemail Audio Options

Once an extension has been created, you are able to add a custom voicemail message for each Agent by clicking on the gear icon. Agents can also add their own voicemail message directly from their call interface.

There are a few audio source options for an Agent's extension voicemail message:

  • Text to audio - Write a custom message and select from a range of different accents to narrate your voicemail for you.

  • Upload a file - Upload a file that contains a voicemail message. Great if you already have a voice-over or want to keep the voicemail greeting standardized.

  • Record - Record your own voice-over for the voicemail.

Note


Please note that this voicemail message only applies to calls directed to a specific Agent via an Agent target or an Agent's extension number. The voicemail messages played when calls to a Queue are unanswered are controlled in  Queue Settings.
