Channels
Set up and test voice conversations
Connect a phone number under Channels › Phone numbers, set the greeting, disclaimer and transfer numbers, then make a test call.
What voice uses
Sorsana answers calls with the same approved knowledge, emergency rules, inbox and hand-over controls as text conversations. Sorsana runs the speech side for you; you only bring the number.
Connect a number
Use a Twilio number from your own Twilio account, or a number from any carrier (Vonage, Telnyx, Plivo, Bandwidth or another carrier) through a SIP trunk.
- Open Channels › Phone numbers and choose Add phone number.
- Enter the number, the building it serves (or any building) and how it is connected.
- For Twilio, enter the account SID and auth token. For a SIP trunk, enter your carrier's termination address and credentials, then point the trunk's inbound calls at the Sorsana SIP address shown.
- Add the numbers calls may be transferred to.
- Check the line shows In sync, then place a test call and confirm the conversation appears in the Inbox.
Troubleshooting
If a line shows Out of sync, read the message next to it, fix the number or telephony details and choose Retry. If a transfer fails, the caller stays with the assistant; check the transfer numbers on the line.
