When configuring a Tracking Number, you have the option to add Call Features. Most call features require an audio message to be played to the caller or advertiser.

Using our text to speech capabilities, Telmetrics can automatically generate the audio notification for you, however in cases where you want more control over the notification, you may choose to manage them yourself.

Notification files are categorized by their type, the following API end-points can be used to retrieve them. Using the 'stype' URL parameter, you can filter the results for your request to only return notification files relevant to their call feature:
