Transcribe Short Audio#
Make sure you have completed Quickstart step before proceeding with this guide.
In this example, we will transcribe a short audio (< 60 seconds) and print out the recognized words.
from soniox.transcribe_file import transcribe_file_short
from soniox.speech_service import SpeechClient
# Do not forget to set your API key in the SONIOX_API_KEY environment variable.
def main():
with SpeechClient() as client:
result = transcribe_file_short("../test_data/test_audio.flac", client)
for word in result.words:
print(f"{word.text} {word.start_ms} {word.duration_ms}")
if __name__ == "__main__":
main()
We create a SpeechClient
object which handles all the communication between your program and Soniox. We use the with
statement to cleanup the client
object after it is no longer needed.
We then call the transcribe_file_short()
function with the created client
object and a short audio
file test_audio.flac
(part of soniox_examples GitHub repository).
The function reads the entire audio file and sends it to Soniox for transcription.
It returns an instance of the Result
structure, which contains the recognized words. Each word is an instance of the Word
structure, which contains the text of the recognized word as well as its timestamps.
Run
python3 transcribe_file_short.py
Output

const { SpeechClient } = require("@soniox/soniox-node");
// Do not forget to set your API key in the SONIOX_API_KEY environment variable.
const speechClient = new SpeechClient();
(async function () {
const result = await speechClient.transcribeFileShort(
"../test_data/test_audio.flac"
);
for (const word of result.words) {
console.log(`${word.text} ${word.start_ms} ${word.duration_ms}`);
}
})();
