Personalizing voicemail

Record a greeting

Select Record a greeting from the Voicemail menu. A separate window will launch. Follow the prompt by using the dial pad to record a message.

Text-to-speech greetings

If you don't want to record a greeting, you can enter a custom text-to-speech voicemail greeting under a customized Text-to-speech greeting.

Call answer rules

By default, Teams will play your voicemail greeting and allow the caller to record a message. You have some other options, though:

• Let the caller record a message.
• Let the caller record a message or be transferred to someone else.
• End the call without playing your greeting.
• Play your greeting and end the call.
• Transfer the call to someone else.

If you choose any of the call transfer options, you will need to type the name or number where you want your calls to be transferred under the Where should they be transferred? field.

Out-of-office greeting

This section allows you to decide when to play your custom text-to-speech out-of-office greeting if you have set it up.
