Specify the maximum number of speakers you want to identify in your media.
Note that if your media contains more speakers than the specified number, multiple speakers will be identified 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.
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) --
To include alternative transcriptions within your transcription output, include ShowAlternatives in your transcription request.
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.
If you include ShowAlternatives , you must also include MaxAlternatives , which is the maximum number of alternative transcriptions you want Amazon Transcribe to generate.
For more information, see Alternative transcriptions .
MaxAlternatives (integer) --
Indicate the maximum number of alternative transcriptions you want Amazon Transcribe to include in your transcript.
If you select a number greater than the number of alternative transcriptions generated by Amazon Transcribe, only the actual number of alternative transcriptions are included.
If you include MaxAlternatives in your request, you must also include ShowAlternatives with a value of true .
For more information, see Alternative transcriptions .

JobExecutionSettings (dict) --
Provides information about how your transcription job is being processed. This parameter shows if your request is queued and what data access role is being used.
AllowDeferredExecution (boolean) --
Allows you to enable job queuing when your concurrent request limit is exceeded. When AllowDeferredExecution is set to true , transcription job requests are placed in a queue until the number of jobs falls below the concurrent request limit. If AllowDeferredExecution is set to false and the number of transcription job requests exceed the concurrent request limit, you get a LimitExceededException error.
Note that job queuing is enabled by default for Call Analytics jobs.
If you include AllowDeferredExecution in your request, you must also include DataAccessRoleArn .
DataAccessRoleArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an IAM role that has permissions to access the Amazon S3 bucket that contains your input files. If the role you specify doesn’t have the appropriate permissions to access the specified Amazon S3 location, your request fails.

string
[REQUIRED]
A unique name, chosen by you, for your transcription job. The name you specify is also used as the default name of your transcription output file. If you want to specify a different name for your transcription output, use the OutputKey parameter.
This name is case sensitive, cannot contain spaces, and must be unique within an Amazon Web Services account. If you try to create a new job with the same name as an existing job, you get a ConflictException error.
string
The language code that represents the language spoken in the input media file.
If you're unsure of the language spoken in your media file, consider using IdentifyLanguage or IdentifyMultipleLanguages to enable automatic language identification.
Note that you must include one of LanguageCode , IdentifyLanguage , or IdentifyMultipleLanguages in your request. If you include more than one of these parameters, your transcription job fails.
For a list of supported languages and their associated language codes, refer to the Supported languages table.
Note
To transcribe speech in Modern Standard Arabic (ar-SA ), your media file must be encoded at a sample rate of 16,000 Hz or higher.
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 determines it for you. If you specify the sample rate, it must match the rate detected by Amazon Transcribe; if there's a mismatch between the value you specify and the value detected, your job fails. Therefore, in most cases, it's advised to omit MediaSampleRateHertz and let Amazon Transcribe 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.
MediaFileUri (string) --
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 is only supported for Call Analytics (StartCallAnalyticsJob ) transcription requests.
string
The name of the Amazon S3 bucket where you want your 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 .
If you don't specify OutputBucketName , your transcript is placed in a service-managed Amazon S3 bucket and you are provided with a URI to access your transcript.
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 transcription job (TranscriptionJobName ).
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 TranscriptionJobName , '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 TranscriptionJobName , '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 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 user making the request must have permission to use the specified KMS key.
dict

If you enable ShowSpeakerLabels in your request, you must also include MaxSpeakerLabels .
You can't include both ShowSpeakerLabels and ChannelIdentification in the same request. Including both parameters returns a BadRequestException .
For more information, see Identifying speakers (diarization) .
MaxSpeakerLabels (integer) --
Specify the maximum number of speakers you want to identify in your media.
Note that if your media contains more speakers than the specified number, multiple speakers will be identified 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.
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) --
To include alternative transcriptions within your transcription output, include ShowAlternatives in your transcription request.
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.
If you include ShowAlternatives , you must also include MaxAlternatives , which is the maximum number of alternative transcriptions you want Amazon Transcribe to generate.
For more information, see Alternative transcriptions .
MaxAlternatives (integer) --
Indicate the maximum number of alternative transcriptions you want Amazon Transcribe to include in your transcript.
If you select a number greater than the number of alternative transcriptions generated by Amazon Transcribe, only the actual number of alternative transcriptions are included.
If you include MaxAlternatives in your request, you must also include ShowAlternatives with a value of true .
For more information, see Alternative transcriptions .
VocabularyFilterName (string) --
The name of the custom vocabulary filter you want to use in your transcription job request. This name is case sensitive, cannot contain spaces, and must be unique within an Amazon Web Services account.

dict
Allows you to control how your transcription job is processed. Currently, the only JobExecutionSettings modification you can choose is enabling job queueing using the AllowDeferredExecution sub-parameter.
If you include JobExecutionSettings in your request, you must also include the sub-parameters: AllowDeferredExecution and DataAccessRoleArn .
AllowDeferredExecution (boolean) --
Allows you to enable job queuing when your concurrent request limit is exceeded. When AllowDeferredExecution is set to true , transcription job requests are placed in a queue until the number of jobs falls below the concurrent request limit. If AllowDeferredExecution is set to false and the number of transcription job requests exceed the concurrent request limit, you get a LimitExceededException error.
Note that job queuing is enabled by default for Call Analytics jobs.
If you include AllowDeferredExecution in your request, you must also include DataAccessRoleArn .
DataAccessRoleArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an IAM role that has permissions to access the Amazon S3 bucket that contains your input files. If the role you specify doesn’t have the appropriate permissions to access the specified Amazon S3 location, your request fails.
IAM role ARNs have the format arn:partition:iam::account:role/role-name-with-path . For example: arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/Admin . For more information, see IAM ARNs .
Note that if you include DataAccessRoleArn in your request, you must also include AllowDeferredExecution .
