# Turn interruption settings

> Control whether a caller can interrupt an agent while it is speaking, and use that choice deliberately for each conversational step.

Control whether a caller can interrupt an agent while it is speaking, and use that choice deliberately for each conversational step.

## Prerequisites

* A workflow draft with an Agent or Start Call node.
* A reason to allow or prevent interruption for the specific utterance.

## Configure interruption

1. Open the node’s edit dialog.
2. Enable **Allow Interruption** for normal conversational turns.
3. Disable it for a short disclosure or other text that must finish without interruption.
4. Test speech overlap, silence, and a caller interruption in the workflow tester.
5. Review the transition after interruption before publishing.

## Constraints and failure states

Interruption is a node-level setting. Start Call and Agent nodes expose it; End Call and Global nodes do not. Disabling interruption can mute or defer caller speech until the utterance completes, so the prompt should set expectations.

## Protect your data

Use disclosures and consent language that remains understandable if a caller speaks over it. Do not rely on interruption settings to protect a secret that should never be spoken.
