Use the Import-UMPrompt cmdlet to copy or upload a custom audio file to be used by Unified Messaging (UM) dial plans and auto attendants.

Syntax

Import-UMPrompt -PromptFileData <Byte[]> -PromptFileName <String> -UMDialPlan <UMDialPlanIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]
Import-UMPrompt -PromptFileData <Byte[]> -PromptFileName <String> -UMAutoAttendant <UMAutoAttendantIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]
Import-UMPrompt -PromptFileName <String> -PromptFileStream <Stream> -UMAutoAttendant <UMAutoAttendantIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]
Import-UMPrompt -PromptFileName <String> -PromptFileStream <Stream> -UMDialPlan <UMDialPlanIdParameter> [-Confirm [<SwitchParameter>]] [-DomainController <Fqdn>] [-WhatIf [<SwitchParameter>]]

Detailed Description

The Import-UMPrompt cmdlet imports custom greeting audio files into UM dial plans and auto attendants. There are many custom greetings used by UM dial plans and auto attendants including welcome greetings for dial plans and after hours welcome greetings and menus, business hours and non-business hours welcome greetings and menus, and key mappings for UM auto attendants.

After this task is completed, the custom audio file can be used by a UM dial plan or auto attendant.

You need to be assigned permissions before you can run this cmdlet. Although all parameters for this cmdlet are listed in this topic, you may not have access to some parameters if they're not included in the permissions assigned to you. To see what permissions you need, see the "UM mailbox" entry in the Unified Messaging Permissions topic.

Parameters

Parameter Required Type Description

PromptFileData

Required

System.Byte[]

The PromptFileData parameter specifies the byte array of the custom prompt.

For more information about the syntax required to use this parameter, see Understanding Importing and Exporting Files in the Exchange Management Shell.

PromptFileName

Required

System.String

The PromptFileName parameter specifies the name of the custom prompt.

PromptFileStream

Required

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.UMAutoAttendantIdParameter

The UMAutoAttendant parameter specifies the UM auto attendant ID. This parameter specifies the directory object identifier for the UM auto attendant.

UMDialPlan

Required

Microsoft.Exchange.Configuration.Tasks.UMDialPlanIdParameter

The UMDialPlan parameter specifies the UM dial plan ID. This parameter specifies the directory object identifier for the UM dial plan.

Confirm

Optional

Examples

Example 1

This example imports the welcome greeting file welcomegreeting.wav from d:\UMPrompts into the UM dial plan MyUMDialPlan.

Copy Code
[byte[]]$c = Get-content -Path "d:\UMPrompts\welcomegreeting.wav" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0
Import-UMPrompt -UMDialPlan MyUMDialPlan -PromptFileName "welcomegreeting.wav" -PromptFileData $c

Example 2

This example imports the welcome greeting file welcomegreeting.wav from d:\UMPrompts into the UM auto attendant MyUMAutoAttendant.

Copy Code
[byte[]]$c = Get-content -Path "d:\UMPrompts\welcomegreeting.wav" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0
Import-UMPrompt -UMAutoAttendant MyUMAutoAttendant -PromptFileName "welcomegreeting.wav" -PromptFileData $c

Example 3

This example imports the welcome greeting file AfterHoursWelcomeGreeting.wav from d:\UMPrompts into the UM auto attendant MyUMAutoAttendant.

Copy Code
[byte[]]$c = Get-content -Path "d:\UMPrompts\AfterHoursWelcomeGreeting.wav" -Encoding Byte -ReadCount 0
Import-UMPrompt -UMAutoAttendant MyUMAutoAttendant -PromptFileName "AfterHoursWelcomeGreeting.wav" -PromptFileData $c
