On-Demand Webinar: Build an IVR Phone Menu

## Learn how to build an IVR phone menu with the Telnyx Voice API

On March 23rd, team Telnyx hosted a live webinar showing attendees how to build an interactive voice response (IVR) phone menu using the Telnyx Voice API, TeXML (our simple XML-based scripting language), and Node.JS.

Our resident Developer Advocate, Dan, walked through everything you need to get up and running:

* How to buy a phone number
* How to register multiple different users on your phone number
* How to answer an incoming call and play custom text-to-speech
* How to prompt for and collect user button presses, and route calls based on those inputs
* How to use a custom audio file instead of text-to-speech

Grab the code used in the demo, and read step-by-step instructions, at our [demo GitHub repo](https://github.com/team-telnyx/demo-node-telnyx/tree/master/express-texml-ivr).
