Use the Set Whisper applet to play a whisper to the agent before connecting the call. A whisper is used to give a message to the agent, before the call is connected. For example, if an agent receives calls from customers in relation to different products, you might want to inform the agent what product the customer is calling about.

The Set Whisper applet can only play a whisper if you have added and enabled a default whisper in the Automatic Call Distributor (ACD) applet. The whisper you set here can then override the default whisper.

For information about the ACD applet, see Automatic Call Distributor (ACD) or Universal Contact Distributor (UCD) applet.

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

For more information about using the Set Whisper applet, see Using whispers.
