Azure AI Transcription SDK for Python. Use for real-time and batch speech-to-text transcription with timestamps and diarization.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Azure AI Transcription SDK for Python
Client library for Azure AI Transcription (speech-to-text) with real-time and batch transcription.
## Installation
```bash
pip install azure-ai-transcription
```
## Environment Variables
```bash
TRANSCRIPTION_ENDPOINT=https://<resource>.cognitiveservices.azure.com
TRANSCRIPTION_KEY=<your-key>
```
## Authentication
Use subscription key authentication (DefaultAzureCredential is not supported for this client):
```python
import os
from azure.ai.transcription import TranscriptionClient
client = TranscriptionClient(
endpoint=os.environ["TRANSCRIPTION_ENDPOINT"],
credential=os.environ["TRANSCRIPTION_KEY"]
)
```
## Transcription (Batch)
```python
job = client.begin_transcription(
name="meeting-transcription",
locale="en-US",
content_urls=["https://<storage>/audio.wav"],
diarization_enabled=True
)
result = job.result()
print(result.status)
```
## Transcription (Real-time)
```python
stream = client.begin_stream_transcription(locale="en-US")
stream.send_audio_file("audio.wav")
for event in stream:
print(event.text)
```
## Best Practices
1. **Enable diarization** when multiple speakers are present
…Read the whole file at its exact version.
How to install
mdr add ghosteken/agent-harness/azure-ai-transcription-py@sha256:e2e957cc11a17776The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260721.efafd9c, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
