#alternative_language_codesArray<String>

Returns Optional A list of up to 3 additional BCP-47 language tags, listing possible alternative languages of the supplied audio. See Language Support for a list of the currently supported language codes. If alternative languages are listed, recognition result will contain recognition in the most likely language detected including the main language_code. The recognition result will include the language tag of the language detected in the audio. NOTE: This feature is only supported for Voice Command and Voice Search use cases and performance may vary for other use cases (e.g., phone call transcription).

Note: When this is true, we send all the words from the beginning of the audio for the top alternative in every consecutive responses. This is done in order to improve our speaker tags as our models learn to identify the speakers in the conversation over time.

#modelString

Returns Optional Which model to select for the given request. Select the model best suited to your domain to get best results. If a model is not explicitly specified, then we auto-select a model based on the parameters in the RecognitionConfig.

Model Description
command_and_search Best for short queries such as voice commands or voice search.
phone_call Best for audio that originated from a phone call (typically recorded at an 8khz sampling rate).
video Best for audio that originated from from video or includes multiple speakers. Ideally the audio is recorded at a 16khz or greater sampling rate. This is a premium model that costs more than the standard rate.
default Best for audio that is not one of the specific audio models. For example, long-form audio. Ideally the audio is high-fidelity, recorded at a 16khz or greater sampling rate.

#use_enhancedtrue, false

Returns Optional Set to true to use an enhanced model for speech recognition. You must also set the +model+ field to a valid, enhanced model. If +use_enhanced+ is set to true and the +model+ field is not set, then +use_enhanced+ is ignored. If +use_enhanced+ is true and an enhanced version of the specified model does not exist, then the speech is recognized using the standard version of the specified model.

Enhanced speech models require that you opt-in to the audio logging using instructions in the alpha documentation. If you set +use_enhanced+ to true and you have not enabled audio logging, then you will receive an error.

Returns:
