Authentication with the Yandex SpeechSense API

Written by
Yandex Cloud
Updated at March 28, 2025

To use the SpeechSense API, create a service account and use it for authentication.

Service account
  • With an IAM token:

    Note

    The IAM token has a short lifetime: no more than 12 hours. This makes it a good method for applications that automatically request an IAM token.

    1. Get an IAM token.

    2. Provide the IAM token in the Authorization header in the following format:

      Authorization: Bearer <IAM_token>
      
  • With API keys.

    Note

    Use API keys if requesting an IAM token automatically is not an option.

    1. Get an API key.

    2. Provide the API key in the Authorization header in the following format:

      Authorization: Api-Key <API_key>
      

Do not specify the folder ID in your requests, as the service uses the folder the service account was created in.
