Infinte long process

[yonatanbendahan]

Hi,

I sent an audio for transcription, and didn't get the result yet (should be in a bucket)

this is the process id: 7346104001135815711

any ideas how I can debug it and find why it fails?

Good day @yonatanbendahan,

Welcome to Google Cloud Community!

Try checking the following:

1. If you are requesting in an API endpoint and your audio file is longer than 60 seconds you need to use this endpoint. 

"https://speech.googleapis.com/v1/speech:longrunningrecognize"

If you are Transcribing short audio files that is no longer than 60 seconds, this is the correct endpoint: 

https://speech.googleapis.com/v1/speech:recognize

For transcribing audio from streaming input, you can use this link to check the sample: https://cloud.google.com/speech-to-text/docs/transcribe-streaming-audio
