    Machine Detection

    The silence parameter is often used in conjunction with the machine_detection feature of the Call API to enable your XML to detect if a call is answered by voice mail. When silence is set to true, as soon as the voice mail finishes speaking, and there is a silence for minSilence milliseconds, the next element in the XML is processed, without waiting for the whole period of length seconds to pass.

    Response

    <Response>
    <Wait length="10" silence="true" minSilence="3000" />
    <Speak>Hello, welcome to the Jungle!</Speak>
</Response>
