  1. In the same interaction plan as your data sources (if using data sources), create a Data Announcer applet.
  2. In the Announcement Type list, click Text. The Voice and Text fields appear.
  3. In Voice, define the voice you want to use to announce the text. You can use either a static value or a dynamic value from a data source.
    To use a static value, type the voice you want to use.
    To use a dynamic value from a data source, type the dollar sign ($). A list of available data sources appears. Click the data source that will contain the required value at run time.
    For example, $(Contact|TextToSpeech_voice__c).
    Whether you use a static or dynamic value for the voice, it must match the voice ID provided by Amazon Polly. The voice is not case-sensitive. For a list of voices available in Amazon Polly and their IDs, see Voices in Amazon Polly.

    The applet validates the voice when you click Update.

  4. In Text, define the text you want announced.
    The Text field can contain text, digits, or a combination. You can include both static values and dynamic values from data sources.

    For example, Balance is $(account(1)|balance). 
    The Text field can contain a maximum of 500 characters.
