The modules chapter includes a Natural Language Processing module and Voice Input, and it also includes IVA Transfer. They are different blocks. NLP inside a script is not automatically a Studio task, and a Studio task is not automatically the NLP module.

Pick the block that matches the design. If the work is a Studio bot with a task key, use IVA Transfer and the Studio article. If the work is a grammar in the IVR, use the IVR module and its own properties.

Config. On two designs, write the module name.

Troubleshooting. No task key exists. The module is Voice Input. Say Voice Input unless a Studio task is really there.

Cross-platform bridge. A mapping to another PBX or contact center is a teaching bridge. It is not an import button.

Future hook. The guide's cloud endpoint stays unset. Confirm before relying on a dated catalog or a case-study number.
