Selecting a voice for your bot
For bots deployed on Programmable Voice the voice
attribute defines the text to speech voice used. Text to speech is the process that converts text (the text that you put in the say
action) into a human-sounding voice. You can enter any of the en-US voices listed in the Text-to-Speech documentation.
