VoiceBase -- Upload a media file for transcription and analysis

See more VoiceBase Examples

This example demonstrates how to upload a media file for transcription and analysis. It duplicates the following curl command:

curl https://apis.voicebase.com/v2-beta/media \
  --form media=@msg_123_abc.wav \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer ${TOKEN}"

CkPython

import sys
import chilkat

success = False

# This example assumes the Chilkat HTTP API to have been previously unlocked.
# See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

# Insert your Bearer token here:
accessToken = "VOICEBASE_TOKEN"

http = chilkat.CkHttp()

req = chilkat.CkHttpRequest()
req.put_HttpVerb("POST")
req.put_Path("/v2-beta/media")
req.put_ContentType("multipart/form-data")

# Add the access (bearer) token to the request, which is a header
# having the following format:
# Authorization: Bearer <userAccessToken>
sbAuth = chilkat.CkStringBuilder()
sbAuth.Append("Bearer ")
sbAuth.Append(accessToken)
req.AddHeader("Authorization",sbAuth.getAsString())

success = req.AddFileForUpload2("media","qa_data/wav/msg_123_abc.wav","audio/x-wav")
if (success == False):
    print(req.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

resp = chilkat.CkHttpResponse()
success = http.HttpSReq("apis.voicebase.com",443,True,req,resp)
if (success == False):
    print(http.lastErrorText())
    sys.exit()

# Examine the response status code and body.
print("Response status code = " + str(resp.get_StatusCode()))

# The response should be JSON, even if an error.
json = chilkat.CkJsonObject()
json.Load(resp.bodyStr())
json.put_EmitCompact(False)

print(json.emit())

# A successful response will have a status code = 200
if (resp.get_StatusCode() != 200):
    print("Failed.")
else:
    print("mediaId: " + json.stringOf("mediaId"))
    print("href: " + json.stringOf("_links.self.href"))
    print("status: " + json.stringOf("status"))
    print("Success.")

# Here is an example of a successful response:

# 	{ 
# 	  "_links": { 
# 	    "self": { 
# 	      "href": "/v2-beta/media/856a1e85-c847-4c3c-b7a4-6cf15cd51db4"
# 	    }
