Client library for Azure AI Transcription (speech-to-text) with real-time and batch transcription.
pip install azure-ai-transcription
TRANSCRIPTION_ENDPOINT=https://<resource>.cognitiveservices.azure.com
TRANSCRIPTION_KEY=<your-key> # For key auth; not needed when using DefaultAzureCredential/TokenCredential
🔑 Two rules apply to every code sample below:
- Two auth modes are supported:
AzureKeyCredential(os.environ["TRANSCRIPTION_KEY"])for key-based auth, orDefaultAzureCredential()/ anyTokenCredentialfor Entra ID. PreferDefaultAzureCredentialin production; never hardcode credentials in code.- Wrap every client in a context manager so HTTP transports and sockets are released deterministically:
- Sync:
with <Client>(...) as client:- Async:
async with <Client>(...) as client:Snippets may abbreviate this setup, but production code should always follow both rules.
Use subscription key authentication:
import os
from azure.core.credentials import AzureKeyCredential
from azure.ai.transcription import TranscriptionClient
with TranscriptionClient(
endpoint=os.environ["TRANSCRIPTION_ENDPOINT"],
credential=AzureKeyCredential(os.environ["TRANSCRIPTION_KEY"]),
) as client:
transcriptions = list(client.list_transcriptions())
