In Architect, a prompt is essentially a container for the prompt resource or resources you select to guide callers through an interaction. Prompts are audio messages that inform the caller when an action is required or that a process is complete. For example, Architect can play a prompt when control is passed to a menu, or when a call is transferred to a workgroup. In general, prompts tell callers what to do. A prompt resource is a recorded audio file or text to speech phrasing that you specify within the prompt container. 

You can upload pre-recorded .wav audio files to use as user call prompts. You can also record an audio prompt in .wav format, if you have a microphone installed on your computer or device, from your browser. You can also add text-to-speech to a Prompt Resource.
