Use the New-CsAutoAttendantCallFlow cmdlet to create a new call flow.

Syntax

Default (Default)

New-CsAutoAttendantCallFlow
    -Name <String>
    -Menu <Object>
    [-Greetings <List>]
    [-Tenant <Guid>]
    [-ForceListenMenuEnabled]
    [<CommonParameters>]

Description

The New-CsAutoAttendantCallFlow cmdlet creates a new call flow for use with the Auto Attendant (AA) service. The AA service uses the call flow to handle inbound calls by playing a greeting (if present), and provide callers with actions through a menu.

Caution

The following configuration parameters will only work for customers that are participating in the Voice Applications private preview for these features. General Availability for this functionality has not been determined at this time.

  • -RingResourceAccountDelegates

Examples

Example 1

$menuPrompt = New-CsAutoAttendantPrompt -TextToSpeechPrompt "To reach your party by name, enter it now, followed by the pound sign."
$menu = New-CsAutoAttendantMenu -Name "Default Menu" -Prompts @($menuPrompt) -EnableDialByName
$callFlow = New-CsAutoAttendantCallFlow -Name "Default Call Flow" -Menu $menu

This example creates a new call flow that renders the "Default Menu" menu.

Example 2

$menuPrompt = New-CsAutoAttendantPrompt -TextToSpeechPrompt "To reach your party by name, enter it now, followed by the pound sign."
$menu = New-CsAutoAttendantMenu -Name "Default Menu" -Prompts $menuPrompt -EnableDialByName
$greeting = New-CsAutoAttendantPrompt -TextToSpeechPrompt "Welcome to Contoso!"
$callFlow = New-CsAutoAttendantCallFlow -Name "Default Call Flow" -Menu $menu -Greetings $greeting -ForceListenMenuEnabled

This example creates a new call flow that plays a greeting before rendering the "Default Menu" menu with Force listen menu enabled.

Parameters

-ForceListenMenuEnabled

Applicable: Microsoft Teams

If specified, DTMF and speech inputs will not be processed while the greeting or menu prompt is playing. It will enforce callers to listen to all menu options before making a selection.

You can create prompts by using the New-CsAutoAttendantPrompt cmdlet.

Note

If Mainline Attendant is enabled, only TTS prompts are supported.

Hello, and thank you for calling [Auto attendant name]. How can I assist you today? Please note that this call may be recorded for compliance purposes.

Saving an auto attendant configuration through Teams admin center will remove this setting.

If enabled for this call flow, Auto Attendant will first ring the delegates assigned to the resource account the call is on. If none of the delegates answer, the call is returned to the Auto Attendant for standard processing.

If there are no delegates assigned to the resource account the call is on then the Auto Attendant will process the call normally.
