Digit Menu Profiles
Digit Menu Profiles define menu options that respond to keypad input during an IVR interaction.
These profiles determine how callers are routed when a specific digit is selected, allowing call flows to present structured self-service options such as reaching a department, accessing a queue, or triggering another menu path. They are commonly used to organize inbound routing and provide callers with clear navigation choices.
Digit Menu Profiles help simplify IVR configuration and make menu behavior easier to manage across the platform. Once assigned within the appropriate routing logic, a Digit Menu Profile can be used to support consistent caller navigation while allowing updates to menu options without rebuilding the full flow structure.

Digit Menu Profiles are accessible to accounts with Supervisor or Admin permissions.
