When creating a new outbound campaign, you will be asked to:
|
|
Set the targeting |
|
|
Name the campaign |
|
|
Set the callerid options. This last step only applies to campaigns launched manually from the VoiceShot Web site. For calls initiated from the API, callerid is passed in through the API |
|
|
Select a main greeting sound file. This can be changed later or dynamically replaced with the API. So anything will work here at this point. |
When creating a new inbound campaign, you will be asked to:
|
|
Select a template. The Blank template is recommended for most API campaigns. |
|
|
Name the campaign |
|
|
Enable/disable email alerts. Unchecked is recommended for API campaigns. |
|
|
Set the number of rings before answer. |
