## What you will build

Create a voice for an Ultravox conversational agent and inspect the returned voice record before using it in a conversation.

## 1. Before you start

Use your own voice or a speaker who explicitly agreed to cloning.

Check whether the account already has a cloned voice before uploading, because the documented default limit is one.

## 2. Try the task

The response contains `voiceId`, plus voice metadata and a preview URL when available.

## 3. Check the result

Confirm the voice appears in the account’s voice list.

### Inspect the created record and preview

This local reader checks that the saved response contains an ID:

Open the voice in the Console's Voices explorer and listen to its preview.

Creating the voice alone completes the upload task.

## 4. Troubleshooting

- Account limit reached: inspect existing voices and the documented limit before trying another upload.
- Multipart upload problems: use one file and let curl set the multipart boundary.
- A missing voice in the test agent: verify the account and returned voice ID.
- A poor preview should be investigated before changing the agent prompt; an unwanted response during a call may instead come from the agent's instructions.

## 5. Try it on your task

Use a private test conversation with a greeting, a question and a sentence containing a name or number.
