Not detected: Could not detect whether there is voicemail. This happens when Amazon Connect is unable to make a positive determination of whether a call was answered by a live voice or an answering machine. Typical situations that land in this state include long silences or excessive background noise.
-
Error: If any errors are encountered due to Amazon Connect not running correctly after media has been established on the call, this is the path that will be taken by the flow. Media is established when the call is either answered by a live voice or by an answering machine. If the call is rejected by the network or encounters a system error while placing the outbound call, the flow will not be run.
