Menu Step

The Menu step allows you to create an IVR menu with custom menu routes. Menus can route callers to queues of sales or service teams, to specific phone numbers, directly to voicemail delivered via email, to recorded messages, or to further nested menus. 

Add the Menu Step

To add a menu step to your Call Flow, select the menu step from the Steps list and drag it to your flow. The Menu step will provide options to add menu items with designated keypad presses.
