App analytics

Track usage by adding an application ID to your requests.

If your application allows users to enter their own Speechmatics API key, Speechmatics can offer you aggregated analytics about your users' usage levels. This includes the number of unique users, hours processed, languages used, and more.

Please reach out to Support to get set up.

Once set up, simply use the sm-app query parameter when starting a job. For example:

APP_ID="YourAppID"
API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"
PATH_TO_FILE="example.wav"

curl -L -X POST "https://eu1.asr.api.speechmatics.com/v2/jobs/?sm-app=${APP_ID}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${API_KEY}" \
    -F data_file=@${PATH_TO_FILE} \
    -F config='{"type": "transcription","transcription_config": { "language": "en" }}'

Once set up, simply use the sm-app query parameter in the connection string when starting a session. For example:

wss://eu.rt.speechmatics.com/v2?sm-app=YourAppID
