This block enables you to dynamically change the persona being used by the application throughout the course of an interaction.

Switching personas can be useful when you want to use certain personas for specific situations. For example, you might want to use a more formal persona when dealing with sensitive customer issues, or switch to a different persona depending on the customer segment being served ("Gold" customers get one type of persona, "Blue" ones get another).

Using this block

You can add this block to the Self Service or Assisted Service phases of the application, or use it in a Shared Module. After you've added the block, select the persona (or the variable) you want to use.

The selected persona will apply to any blocks that are using Text-to-Speech (TTS) services, such as Play Message, User Input, Menu, Bot, Record Utterance, Business Hours, Emergency, Special Day, Route Call, and Route Agent.
