The language code that represents the language spoken in the input media file. US English (en-US ) is the only valid value for medical transcription jobs. Any other value you enter for language code results in a BadRequestException error.
integer
The sample rate, in hertz, of the audio track in your input media file.
If you don't specify the media sample rate, Amazon Transcribe Medical determines it for you. If you specify the sample rate, it must match the rate detected by Amazon Transcribe Medical; if there's a mismatch between the value that you specify and the value detected, your job fails. Therefore, in most cases, it's advised to omit MediaSampleRateHertz and let Amazon Transcribe Medical determine the sample rate.
string
Specify the format of your input media file.
dict
[REQUIRED]
Describes the Amazon S3 location of the media file you want to use in your request.
For information on supported media formats, refer to the MediaFormat parameter or the Media formats section in the Amazon S3 Developer Guide.

The Amazon S3 location of the media file you want to transcribe. For example:
s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-media-file.flac
s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/media-files/my-media-file.flac
Note that the Amazon S3 bucket that contains your input media must be located in the same Amazon Web Services Region where you're making your transcription request.
RedactedMediaFileUri (string) --
The Amazon S3 location of the media file you want to redact. For example:
s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-media-file.flac
s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/media-files/my-media-file.flac
Note that the Amazon S3 bucket that contains your input media must be located in the same Amazon Web Services Region where you're making your transcription request.
Warning
RedactedMediaFileUri produces a redacted audio file in addition to a redacted transcript. It is only supported for Call Analytics (StartCallAnalyticsJob ) transcription requests.
string
[REQUIRED]
The name of the Amazon S3 bucket where you want your medical transcription output stored. Do not include the S3:// prefix of the specified bucket.
If you want your output to go to a sub-folder of this bucket, specify it using the OutputKey parameter; OutputBucketName only accepts the name of a bucket.
For example, if you want your output stored in S3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET , set OutputBucketName to DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET . However, if you want your output stored in S3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/test-files/ , set OutputBucketName to DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET and OutputKey to test-files/ .
Note that Amazon Transcribe must have permission to use the specified location. You can change Amazon S3 permissions using the Amazon Web Services Management Console . See also Permissions Required for IAM User Roles .
string
Use in combination with OutputBucketName to specify the output location of your transcript and, optionally, a unique name for your output file. The default name for your transcription output is the same as the name you specified for your medical transcription job (MedicalTranscriptionJobName ).
Here are some examples of how you can use OutputKey :
If you specify 'DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET' as the OutputBucketName and 'my-transcript.json' as the OutputKey , your transcription output path is s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-transcript.json .
If you specify 'my-first-transcription' as the MedicalTranscriptionJobName , 'DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET' as the OutputBucketName , and 'my-transcript' as the OutputKey , your transcription output path is s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-transcript/my-first-transcription.json .
If you specify 'DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET' as the OutputBucketName and 'test-files/my-transcript.json' as the OutputKey , your transcription output path is s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/test-files/my-transcript.json .
If you specify 'my-first-transcription' as the MedicalTranscriptionJobName , 'DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET' as the OutputBucketName , and 'test-files/my-transcript' as the OutputKey , your transcription output path is s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/test-files/my-transcript/my-first-transcription.json .
If you specify the name of an Amazon S3 bucket sub-folder that doesn't exist, one is created for you.
string
The KMS key you want to use to encrypt your medical transcription output.
If using a key located in the current Amazon Web Services account, you can specify your KMS key in one of four ways:
Use the KMS key ID itself. For example, 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab .
Use an alias for the KMS key ID. For example, alias/ExampleAlias .
Use the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the KMS key ID. For example, arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab .
Use the ARN for the KMS key alias. For example, arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:alias/ExampleAlias .
If using a key located in a different Amazon Web Services account than the current Amazon Web Services account, you can specify your KMS key in one of two ways:
Use the ARN for the KMS key ID. For example, arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab .
Use the ARN for the KMS key alias. For example, arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:alias/ExampleAlias .
If you don't specify an encryption key, your output is encrypted with the default Amazon S3 key (SSE-S3).
If you specify a KMS key to encrypt your output, you must also specify an output location using the OutputLocation parameter.
Note that the role making the request must have permission to use the specified KMS key.

dict
Specify additional optional settings in your request, including channel identification, alternative transcriptions, and speaker partitioning. You can use that to apply custom vocabularies to your transcription job.
ShowSpeakerLabels (boolean) --
Enables speaker partitioning (diarization) in your transcription output. Speaker partitioning labels the speech from individual speakers in your media file.
If you enable ShowSpeakerLabels in your request, you must also include MaxSpeakerLabels .
You can't include ShowSpeakerLabels and ChannelIdentification in the same request. Including both parameters returns a BadRequestException .
For more information, see Partitioning speakers (diarization) .
MaxSpeakerLabels (integer) --
Specify the maximum number of speakers you want to partition in your media.
Note that if your media contains more speakers than the specified number, multiple speakers are treated as a single speaker.
If you specify the MaxSpeakerLabels field, you must set the ShowSpeakerLabels field to true.
ChannelIdentification (boolean) --
Enables channel identification in multi-channel audio.
Channel identification transcribes the audio on each channel independently, then appends the output for each channel into one transcript.
If you have multi-channel audio and do not enable channel identification, your audio is transcribed in a continuous manner and your transcript does not separate the speech by channel.
You can't include both ShowSpeakerLabels and ChannelIdentification in the same request. Including both parameters returns a BadRequestException .
For more information, see Transcribing multi-channel audio .
ShowAlternatives (boolean) --

If using automatic language identification in your request and you want to apply a custom language model, a custom vocabulary, or a custom vocabulary filter, include LanguageIdSettings with the relevant sub-parameters (VocabularyName , LanguageModelName , and VocabularyFilterName ). Note that multi-language identification (IdentifyMultipleLanguages ) doesn't support custom language models.
LanguageIdSettings supports two to five language codes. Each language code you include can have an associated custom language model, custom vocabulary, and custom vocabulary filter. The language codes that you specify must match the languages of the associated custom language models, custom vocabularies, and custom vocabulary filters.
It's recommended that you include LanguageOptions when using LanguageIdSettings to ensure that the correct language dialect is identified. For example, if you specify a custom vocabulary that is in en-US but Amazon Transcribe determines that the language spoken in your media is en-AU , your custom vocabulary is not applied to your transcription. If you include LanguageOptions and include en-US as the only English language dialect, your custom vocabulary is applied to your transcription.
If you want to include a custom language model with your request but do not want to use automatic language identification, use instead the parameter with the LanguageModelName sub-parameter. If you want to include a custom vocabulary or a custom vocabulary filter (or both) with your request but do not want to use automatic language identification, use instead the parameter with the VocabularyName or VocabularyFilterName (or both) sub-parameter.
