	Importing a Delimited Prompt Data File

The Import Prompt Data option allows you to import new prompt data from a delimited text file to update existing prompts, and/or add new prompts, to your speech application project. This capability can be extremely helpful to batch create or update prompts that play pre-recorded audio.

Note:

Multiple prompt levels and multiple simultaneous languages are not supported by the Import Prompt Data option

Before importing a prompt data file, you need to first create one-a delimited prompt data text file. The text file must have the following format for each row:

<prompt>,<phraseset>:<phrase>,<phraseset>:<phrase>, ... n phrases per prompt

and/or

<prompt>,<phraseset>:<phrase>,<standalone_phrase>, ... n phrases per prompt

Each prompt can be made up n number of phraseset:phrase pairs and/or standalone phrases, or both. There is no limit on how many phrases can make up a single prompt.

The delimiter used in the text file can be a Tab, or another consistently used character in your file that does not conflict with the data content; for example a pipe symbol (" | ") or comma.

To import a delimited prompt data file:

Create a delimited prompt data text file, as described in the previous discussion.

Within the Dialog Designer Navigator panel, select the speech application project to import the prompt data to.

From the Main Menu bar, select File > Import. The Import selection dialog box is shown.

Select Avaya Speech Development > Prompt Data, then click Next.

The Import Prompt Data dialog box is displayed. Click Browse to navigate to your delimited prompt data text file to be imported.

In the Target Language panel, select a Project and Language which will be updated based on the data within the prompt data file.

In the Options panel, define the delimiter used in your prompt data file. Select either the Tab option, or Other and indicate the delimiter character.

After completing the step, click Next.

The Import Prompt Data-Import Preview dialog box is shown, showing the anticipated import results before actually performing the import.

Review the preview, and if it all seems correct, click Finish (of Back if needed to rectify anything).
