Overview

This flow provides a simple flow that plays an announcement to the caller. Modify the flow to ensure a smooth caller experience by handling any errors or unknown conditions.

The subflow uses Cisco Text-to-Speech for any audio prompts. For music, it defaults to the built-in file (defaultmusic_on_hold.wav), for music on hold.

Prerequisites

Ensure that the following requirements are met in the Webex Contact Center Management Portal before implementing this flow:

  • Create entry points, queues, teams, and entry point mappings and any other organization-specific configuration activities like connectors, outdial ANI, and more.
  • Upload static audio files if custom audio prompts are used instead of Cisco-Text-to-Speech (TTS).

    For detailed steps, see Webex Contact Center setup and administration guide.

Description

Start

The flow begins when a call is received
Play Message
  • The call is directed to the WelcomeMessage activity, which plays a welcome message to the caller.
  • This uses TTS but can be a pre-recorded message, greeting the caller or providing some information.

Disconnect

  • After the welcome message, the call is directed to the disconnect activity.
  • This activity disconnects the call, ending the interaction after the message has been played.
