Voicemail Notifications
When configuring voicemail within an inbound call flow, notification preferences can be set specifically for that number. These settings would then override the company settings for the number.
Alternatively, you can choose to use the company notification settings. From the dashboard, you can set company settings for voicemail notification within Account > Settings > General.
Notification Settings
Email notifications for each voicemail sends an email notification per voicemail to the user selected in the voicemail step of your inbound number's call flow.
Recording of voicemail as email attachment attaches the voicemail recording to each notification email that is sent.
Voicemail Recordings
Click the link in the email notification to access the attached voicemail recording. These recordings are also accessible in your dashboard, under Call History.
