Scenario Builder Reference Guide
Answer
The Answer scenario block provides answer supervision to the carrier and answers the call. It opens two-way voice communication with the caller and starts the caller's billing cycle. The Answer block typically follows an Accept block at the beginning of a scenario.
There are no settings or configuration parameters for this block.
Important:
Using the Accept block in a scenario disables the default behavior of answering a call automatically on scenario start and requires an Answer block to provide answer supervision.
