Customizing audio greetings and prompts In Zoom App
Zoom Phone offers a large audio library where you can choose from. Add custom audio to your extensions’ audio prompts and greetings by recording it or uploading it. Usually, the audio prompts and greetings are played before calling is switched to another extension.
Within your account, you may customize the audio for extensions. For more information, click the links embedded in this article.
Notes:Â
- It is also possible to customise the default sound of the extension.
- The greeting set for one extension will override the one for another extension when routing to another extension’s voicemail, when auto receptionist‘s, call queue’s, or IVR’s voicemail greetings are set. In order to use the phone user‘s current greeting instead of selecting a replacement when routing to a voicemail of that user, select Follow User Voicemail Greeting when routing to their voicemail dropdown menu.
