Hi. I'm looking for something that will speak messages from certain contacts.
I use Webex to collaborate with my co-workers as we all work from home.
Some of them get quite upset if they don't receive an immediate response. About 90% of the time I will automatically look at Webex whenever I hear a notification sound, but sometimes I'm concentrating on solving a problem or talking to a customer. I'd like to be able to hear their messages that way I know when one of them has sent me a message.
Alternatively a custom notification sound for specific contacts would be helpful.
Anyone have a solution for this? It can be a kludgy work around, I don't care. Whatever works, even if it's held together with bubblegum and duct tape. Even something that watches a defined part of the screen and does something if any pixels in that part of the screen changes. I run Windows 10 on multiple monitors if that makes a difference...
Thanks!

You could build an integration using the Webex Rest API. Register a webhook tagt is triggered for new messages. Check if it was sent from such a contact. In case it is, your integration may trigger a TTS engine and read out that message.
