Response message is an audio message that callers can hear before the call is answered, forwarded, or redirected to voicemail. Response messages are used to give a caller additional information, such as the call is being recorded.

On this tab, you can add default response messages, so they can be then used in the call screening rules (see the Policies tab > How to add a new rule).

The default response messages can be overridden by users on the Account self-care portal or via the IVR, where they can set their own personalized message.
