Configure in Splunk On-Call 🔗

You need a Rules Engine rule in order to turn all Voicemails into incidents. You can create the rule based on the transcription of the message or on every voicemail like the following example.

  1. Go to Settings then Alert Rules Engine.

  2. Create a new rule.

  3. The subject line of the voicemail always starts with 「New voicemail from」 so create a wildcard match using that phrase. Then add a transformation that changes the *message_type to CRITICAL.

  4. Test the integration by calling your google voice number and leaving a message. The transcription appears in the state_message field.
