TranscribeStreamingClient

✓ from aws_sdk_transcribe_streaming import TranscribeStreamingClient

✗ from aws_sdk_transcribe_streaming import TranscribeStreamingClient

Create a client and start a transcription stream.

import os import asyncio from aws_sdk_transcribe_streaming import TranscribeStreamingClient async def transcribe(): client = TranscribeStreamingClient( region="us-west-2", aws_access_key_id=os.environ.get("AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID", ""), aws_secret_access_key=os.environ.get("AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY", ""), ) result = await client.start_stream_transcription( language_code="en-US", media_sample_rate_hz=16000, media_encoding="pcm", ) print(result) asyncio.run(transcribe())

Debug

Known issues

breakingBreaking: The library dropped support for Python <3.12 in v0.5.0. Using with older Python versions will fail with a syntax error.

fix

Upgrade Python to 3.12+ or pin to aws-sdk-transcribe-streaming<0.5.0.

affects: >=0.5.0

gotchaThe library uses asyncio under the hood. All client methods must be awaited; forgetting 'await' leads to coroutine objects instead of results.

fix

Ensure all calls to client methods are prefixed with 'await' inside an async function.

affects: all

deprecatedUse of 'TranscribeStreamingClient' without explicit region may fail silently. In earlier versions region defaulted to 'us-east-1' but new releases require explicit parameter.

fix

Pass 'region' explicitly when constructing the client.

affects: >=0.4.0
