Greeting

The Greeting step plays audio to the caller. Use it at any point in the flow — as a welcome message, a hold announcement, or a confirmation after collecting input.

Announcing queue metrics:

When a Greeting step is placed immediately before a Dial step to a queue (with no other steps in between), it can announce real-time queue information using these variables in a Text-to-Speech message:

  • {{queue_average_wait_time}} — Estimated wait time in minutes, calculated as: (current calls in queue × avg call duration over 7 days) ÷ (available agents)
  • {{queue_size}} — Number of callers currently in queue

Both variables can be combined in the same greeting. For example: “Your wait time is approximately {{queue_average_wait_time}} minutes. There are {{queue_size}} callers ahead of you.”
