        The FailureReason field can contain one of the following values:

        • Unsupported media format : The media format specified in the MediaFormat field of the request isn't valid. See the description of the MediaFormat field for a list of valid values.

        • The media format provided does not match the detected media format : The media format of the audio file doesn't match the format specified in the MediaFormat field in the request. Check the media format of your media file and make sure the two values match.

        • Invalid sample rate for audio file : The sample rate specified in the MediaSampleRateHertz of the request isn't valid. The sample rate must be between 8,000 and 48,000 Hertz.

        • The sample rate provided does not match the detected sample rate : The sample rate in the audio file doesn't match the sample rate specified in the MediaSampleRateHertz field in the request. Check the sample rate of your media file and make sure that the two values match.

        • Invalid file size: file size too large : The size of your audio file is larger than what Amazon Transcribe Medical can process. For more information, see Guidelines and Quotas in the Amazon Transcribe Medical Guide.

        • Invalid number of channels: number of channels too large : Your audio contains more channels than Amazon Transcribe Medical is configured to process. To request additional channels, see Amazon Transcribe Medical Endpoints and Quotas in the Amazon Web Services General Reference.

Starts an asynchronous analytics job that not only transcribes the audio recording of a caller and agent, but also returns additional insights. These insights include how quickly or loudly the caller or agent was speaking. To retrieve additional insights with your analytics jobs, create categories. A category is a way to classify analytics jobs based on attributes, such as a customer's sentiment or a particular phrase being used during the call. For more information, see the operation.

type TranscriptionJobName

string

param TranscriptionJobName

[REQUIRED]

The name of the job. You can't use the strings " . " or " .. " by themselves as the job name. The name must also be unique within an Amazon Web Services account. If you try to create a transcription job with the same name as a previous transcription job, you get a ConflictException error.

type LanguageCode

string

param LanguageCode

The language code for the language used in the input media file.

To transcribe speech in Modern Standard Arabic (ar-SA), your audio or video file must be encoded at a sample rate of 16,000 Hz or higher.

type MediaSampleRateHertz

integer

param MediaSampleRateHertz

The sample rate, in Hertz, of the audio track in the input media file.

If you do not specify the media sample rate, Amazon Transcribe determines the sample rate. If you specify the sample rate, it must match the sample rate detected by Amazon Transcribe. In most cases, you should leave the MediaSampleRateHertz field blank and let Amazon Transcribe determine the sample rate.

type MediaFormat

string

param MediaFormat

The format of the input media file.

type Media

dict

param Media

[REQUIRED]

An object that describes the input media for a transcription job.

  • MediaFileUri (string) --

    The S3 object location of the input media file. The URI must be in the same region as the API endpoint that you are calling. The general form is:

    For example:

    For more information about S3 object names, see Object Keys in the Amazon S3 Developer Guide .

  • RedactedMediaFileUri (string) --

    The S3 object location for your redacted output media file. This is only supported for call analytics jobs.

type OutputBucketName

string

param OutputBucketName

The location where the transcription is stored.

If you set the OutputBucketName , Amazon Transcribe puts the transcript in the specified S3 bucket. When you call the GetTranscriptionJob operation, the operation returns this location in the TranscriptFileUri field. If you enable content redaction, the redacted transcript appears in RedactedTranscriptFileUri . If you enable content redaction and choose to output an unredacted transcript, that transcript's location still appears in the TranscriptFileUri . The S3 bucket must have permissions that allow Amazon Transcribe to put files in the bucket. For more information, see Permissions Required for IAM User Roles.

You can specify an Amazon Web Services Key Management Service (KMS) key to encrypt the output of your transcription using the OutputEncryptionKMSKeyId parameter. If you don't specify a KMS key, Amazon Transcribe uses the default Amazon S3 key for server-side encryption of transcripts that are placed in your S3 bucket.

If you don't set the OutputBucketName , Amazon Transcribe generates a pre-signed URL, a shareable URL that provides secure access to your transcription, and returns it in the TranscriptFileUri field. Use this URL to download the transcription.

type OutputKey

string

param OutputKey

You can specify a location in an Amazon S3 bucket to store the output of your transcription job.

If you don't specify an output key, Amazon Transcribe stores the output of your transcription job in the Amazon S3 bucket you specified. By default, the object key is "your-transcription-job-name.json".

You can use output keys to specify the Amazon S3 prefix and file name of the transcription output. For example, specifying the Amazon S3 prefix, "folder1/folder2/", as an output key would lead to the output being stored as "folder1/folder2/your-transcription-job-name.json". If you specify "my-other-job-name.json" as the output key, the object key is changed to "my-other-job-name.json". You can use an output key to change both the prefix and the file name, for example "folder/my-other-job-name.json".

If you specify an output key, you must also specify an S3 bucket in the OutputBucketName parameter.

type OutputEncryptionKMSKeyId

string

param OutputEncryptionKMSKeyId

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Web Services Key Management Service (KMS) key used to encrypt the output of the transcription job. The user calling the StartTranscriptionJob operation must have permission to use the specified KMS key.

You can use either of the following to identify a KMS key in the current account:

  • KMS Key ID: "1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab"

  • KMS Key Alias: "alias/ExampleAlias"

You can use either of the following to identify a KMS key in the current account or another account:

  • Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a KMS Key: "arn:aws:kms:region:account ID:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab"

  • ARN of a KMS Key Alias: "arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:alias/ExampleAlias"

If you don't specify an encryption key, the output of the transcription job is encrypted with the default Amazon S3 key (SSE-S3).
