Recorded Messages

Screen purpose: Create and manage reusable recorded messages for CallProof calling. CallProof dials your phone so you can record a message, then you name it and keep it for later use.

Recorded Messages
  • Browse your recorded messages
  • Record a new message by phone
  • Rename and listen to a message
  • Delete messages you no longer need
  • Managers can filter by sales rep

Screen title: Recorded Messages

Browser title: Recorded Messages

Address: /caller/msgs/

Note: This is not Call History. Call History (/calls/all/) shows completed calls. Recorded Messages are short audio clips you create and reuse.


How to open Recorded Messages

Option A — Quick Links

  1. Sign in to CallProof.
  2. Open a Calls / Caller screen that includes Quick Links.
  3. Click Recorded Messages.

Option B — Direct address

  1. Go to your CallProof site and add /caller/msgs/.
  2. Press Enter.

Permissions and requirements

  • You must be signed in.
  • Your company must have Twilio / recorded calling enabled. If it is inactive, CallProof may redirect you away with Recorded messages inactive / Recorded calling inactive.
  • Reps usually see only their own messages.
  • Managers can see company messages and filter by Rep.
  • To Record New Message, you also need:
    • An active Caller ID
    • A usable phone number on that Caller ID
    • A Default Phone set on your user profile

Tips and important notes

  • Recorded Messages = reusable clips you create. Recorded Calls / Call History = logs of actual calls.
  • Name every message after recording — unnamed rows are harder to find and may show Name not found.
  • Audio may say Audio not available until the recording finishes processing.
  • Default sort is usually newest first (Rev Date Added).
  • Managers see a Sales Rep column and a Rep filter; reps typically see only their own messages.
  • If the company does not have recorded calling enabled, this screen will not work.

Need help?

  • No messages found: clear filters, or record a new message
  • Cannot record: check Caller ID, Default Phone, and Twilio / recorded calling
  • Call Now toast says initializing, but no call arrives: confirm your default phone number is correct and reachable
  • Cannot rename: enter a non-empty Name (max 64 characters)
  • Audio missing: wait for processing, then reopen Edit
