General questions about SpeechKit

Written by

Can I get the logs of what I do when I work with Yandex Cloud?Can I get the logs of what I do when I work with Yandex Cloud?

Yes, you can request information about operations with your resources from Yandex Cloud. For more information, see Data requests.

Where can I view API request statistics?Where can I view API request statistics?

You can view the statistics in the management console under SpeechKit → Monitoring.

As you use the service, your balance automatically decreases. Learn more about paying for resources in Yandex Cloud.

How do I increase quotas? / What should I do if the "429 Too Many Requests" error occurs?How do I increase quotas? / What should I do if the "429 Too Many Requests" error occurs?

The 429 Too Many Requests error indicates that the quotas set for your folder have been exceeded. The default quota values are specified in this table.

To increase the quotas, contact support. In your request, specify the folder ID and the required quotas in "Name — Value" format.

What is the purpose of the folder ID (folderId)?What is the purpose of the folder ID (folderId)?

SpeechKit uses folderId for authorization (access permission verification) and payments for resources.

When sending a request under a service account, you do not need to specify folderId: by default, the account's home folder ID is used. If you specify a different folder, the service will return an error.

If logged in under a user account, you must specify folderId.

Depending on the API used, you should include the folder ID in the request header or body. For more information about authentication in SpeechKit, see Authentication with the SpeechKit API.

How do I generate an IAM token?How do I generate an IAM token?

Among other methods, you can generate an IAM token using the Yandex Cloud command line interface. You can find all the possible ways of obtaining an IAM token for your Yandex account, federated account, and service account in the Yandex Identity and Access Management documentation.

Even though IAM tokens are only valid for 12 hours, we still recommend them as the most secure authentication method for SpeechKit.

What should I do if I get the "401 Unauthorized" error?What should I do if I get the "401 Unauthorized" error?

If the SpeechKit server returns the 401 Unauthorized error in response to a request, check if your account has the required roles. In addition, check your authorization method and the key or token you are using for authorization: you may have obtained it for a different account than the one you are using for your request.

If using a service account, do not specify folder ID in your requests: SpeechKit uses the service account's home folder.

Under what conditions can I use SpeechKit performance results?Under what conditions can I use SpeechKit performance results?
