How to add a custom id for a single audio file in a speech to text batch process?

Question

Hi, i am processing multiple audio files using azure speech to text batch process using contentUrls, So i have lets have 5 public urls, and when i get the result of these 5 i get it as "contenturl_0.json", "contenturl_1.json",2,3,4. This does not let me identify which file is which, and i have to open the result contentUrl and check the source field to understand which file it is. I can also find the source url in the transcription report, but again it cannot be mapped to the result contentUrl. So i wanted to know if theres a way for me to add a custom id for each url i pass, or can i change the value that appears in the "name" field to something unique that i can set other than "contenturl_0.json"

Answer 1

It is either you do it manually as you need to open each result file to check the source field. (I know it is hard to manage in this way).

Or you need to process each audio file separately : 1 file = 1 batch transcription job

and you can assign a unique display name to each job.
