IVR Collect Digit applet

The IVR Collect Digit applet collects a digit, in an IVR slot, that a caller provides using their telephone key pad. The applet stores this digit in the specified digit IVR Slot. For example, a post-call survey can use the IVR Collect Digit applet to collect responses to questions.When you store a value in an IVR slot, the value is also stored as a data source. The Data Connector, Data Announcer, Data Router, ACD, and UCD applets can then use the data source. The name of the data source is the friendly name of the IVR slot, prefixed with 'IVRSlot|'. For example, if an IVR slot has a friendly name of 'StockPrice', the corresponding data source value is called 'IVRSlot|StockPrice'.

You can only use this applet in an interaction plan that routes calls, and not other types of interactions.

After making any changes to the applet, you must click the corresponding Update button, or buttons, to save your changes. Changes in other sections are NOT saved when you click an Update button in another section, so update the modified field or fields before making changes in other sections.
