play Action

Plays one or more play media objects to the call. A play media object can be some TTS text, a wav file or some digits (played as tones). When specifying a wav file, the play media object can contain the name of a file in the Aculab media file store or the URL of a remote file. Optionally, pressing any digit on the call or saying a word or short phrase can barge in and stop the play.

A play action with barge in on speech enabled uses one speech recognition stream. The service must be configured so that the application will have one stream available when the play action runs. Note that prompt plays with barge in on speech enabled as part of a get input or run speech menu action will share the speech recognition stream with those actions.

Note that speech recognition/transcription is a chargeable feature.

language wrappers and examples

The play properties are:

PropertyRequired/OptionalDefaultDescription
play listrequiredAn array of play media objects to play. Each element is either a TTS, media file or digits object.
barge in on digit
from API V2.0		 optional true Whether a digit pressed during the play will barge in.
barge in on speech
from API V2.0		 optional false Whether speech recognised during the play will barge in. Note that speech recognition/transcription is a chargeable feature.
barge in on speech options
from API V2.0		 optional - A speech barge in options object. Ignored unless barge in on speech is enabled. Specifies the language for speech recognition and whether barge in should only occur if specific short phrases are recognised.

Remarks

Barge in on a single play action will skip all the remaining media in that play action.
Barge in on one play action will not affect a subsequent play action.
Barge in on a play action immediately preceding a run menu, run speech menu, get number, or get input action may result in that action returning the digit or speech that barged in.

The Play action does not generate an action result and does not report whether barge in occured or the cause of a barge in. If you are interested in barge in details you can use get input immediately after the play to identify if there was a barge in and the corresponding digit entered or phrase spoken. This is designed only to get words or short phrases that barged in. Longer phrases that barged in may be truncated.

Barge in is not supported on the connect to conference actions's hold media property or any of its conference participant plays.
