  2. Click the green add button to create a new file schedule
  3. Link it to your previously created schedule from the dropdown menu
  4. Specify two types of content: the default file or text-to-speech message that plays when no rules apply, and the override file or message that plays when rule conditions are met
  5. “If you have entered in any text, press the play button next to the input field to cache the audio file” before saving

Use your file schedule for custom hold music by creating a playlist in the Hold Music settings, adding your file schedule to it, and then assigning this playlist to your location’s voice preferences.
