Speech To Text Integration (STT)

Speech To Text (STT) integration allows your contact center to use speech-to-text functionality to transcribe voice calls and save the transcriptions to interaction records. Full-text transcripts are searchable and include sentiment attributes (if Natural Language Understanding is enabled).

Bright Pattern integrates with STT providers such as IBM Watson, GoVivace, and Google.

Select the type of STT integration

Google Properties

Google's Cloud Speech API converts audio to text. In the Properties dialog, enter the credentials of your Google synchronous STT instance as follows. This allows Bright Pattern to access your STT resource and use it in interactions.

Please note: Google STT requires a payment method to be attached to the account; without this, the STT service would silently not work, and there would be an error in the Google API dashboard.

Google synchronous STT integration account properties

Name

The unique name of this integration account (any)

Type

By default, “Google synchronous STT” because you selected this type when adding the account.

URL

By default, https://speech.googleapis.com/v1/

API key

The service key ID that is used to authenticate Google's Cloud Speech API. This is generated when you get credentials for your service account.

GoVivace Properties

In the Properties dialog, enter the credentials of your GoVivace STT instance as follows. This allows Bright Pattern to access your STT resource and use it in interactions.

GoVivace integration account properties

Name

The unique name of this integration account (any). Because you can have multiple integration accounts of the same type, it is helpful to have a descriptive, memorable name.

URL

By default, wss://services.govivace.com/telephony

STT integration uses the secure WebSocket protocol (i.e., "wss"), so only the wss:// prefix is allowed.

API Key

The GoVivace API key

Default account

Select the Default account checkbox if this integration account is to be the default STT integration account.

wss://api.us-south.speech-to-text.watson.cloud.ibm.com/instances/1a23456f-121d-4c52-bc06-62168f5a18de

You can find the URL in your IBM Speech to Text service credentials. Note that STT integration uses the secure WebSocket protocol (i.e., "wss"), so only the wss:// prefix is allowed.

You can find your API key on IBM Cloud by going to your Speech to Text service credentials.
