This article explains how to send a message to a customer with Babel Voice.
Babel Voice converts text to audio for the customer to hear during a phone call. If Babel Voice is used with a translation workflow, you can type a response in the language you are most familiar with and have it translated and read aloud in the customer’s preferred language.
If you don't have a translation workflow in the Message Container, Babel Voice will only be able to convert text to voice in the input language.
Note: Babel Voice is only available for phone calls.
