Transcribing an Audio File from a Storage Account Using the Speech Service
UseCase 1 – Azure Speech Service Outbound access not restricted
3. Make the GET Request: Follow below steps in Postman to make a POST request to Speech Service
{
"contentUrls": [
"SASLinkToAudioFileOnStorage"
],
"locale": "en-US",
"displayName": "My Transcription",
"model": null,
"properties": {
"wordLevelTimestampsEnabled": true,
"languageIdentification": {
"candidateLocales": [
"en-US", "de-DE", "es-ES"
]
}
}
}
The Post Request will return a status code of 201 as shown – it indicates that the request was successfully processed, and a new transcription job has been created. This status code confirms that the transcription process has been initiated
In the response body of the POST request, find the URL provided under the ‘Links’ section and make a GET request to that URL.
The response from this GET request will contain a contentUrl, which you need to use to make another request to fetch the transcribed data
Since the outbound access was not disabled, we were able to fetch the Transcribed data from speech service.
UseCase 2 – Azure Speech Service Outbound access is restricted
Repeat the steps as mentioned in UseCase1 to send POST request to Speech Service.
The request will return a status code of 403.This means that we are not allowed to access Audio File from Storage account because here we have mentioned - restrictOutboundNetworkAccess": true, and "allowedFqdnList": "microsoft.com" which means we have restricted outbound access and speech service can only access “microsoft.com” only.
