  • 1.  Collect Email Address in Voice Bot

    Posted 01-05-2023 14:18
    No replies, thread closed.
    I have a possible use case where a caller contacts a voice bot and it may be necessary to gather their email address from them to send them documents. I tried a slot using reg ex but system would not recognize it properly. I looked into Collect Input tool but looks like this is only for numbers. Is there any way to do this without passing them to an agent? 

    Thanks

    Matthew,
    The problem you will have here is that email addresses are difficult for speech recognition engines. Not only do they need to be 100% accurate (a single wrong character and you're screwed) but also they often don't follow usual spelling and grammatical rules (in many cases, at least parts of them are not even legitimate words!!!)
    I would love to be wrong, but I'm not certain that collecting email addresses with a voice bot is currently viable.
    Sorry!

    Hi Paul,

    Thanks for the reply. My testing has brought me to the same conclusion. Just wanted to check before moving to the next thing.

    Thanks

    It may be possible to build a dual medium Virtual Agent (Visual IVR), where the Voice Virtual Agent can determine that person is calling in from a mobile device (SMS enabled) and can send them a unique URL for a form to fill out with their email address and then move the virtual agent forward upon response or responding to the SMS with their email to do the same. It depends on the capabilities of the underlying NLU engine.
