Using Azure Cognitive Services Speech to Text and Logic apps
No Code — Workflow style
please use this as reference, as this might not be your exact use case. But you can see how AI can help drive insights and automate large audio dataset
Pre requisite
- Azure Account
- Azure Storage account
- Azure Cognitive Services
- Azure Logic apps
- Get connection string for storage
- Get the primary key to be used as subcription key for cognitive services
- Audio file should be wav format
- Audio file cannot be too big
- Audio time 10 min
Logic apps
- First create a trigger from Blob
- Create a connection string using blob connection string
- Now bring “Reads Blob Content from Azure Storage”
- Container name: audioinput
- Choose dynamics and select the blob name as above picture
- Bring HTTP action
- Here we need to call the speech to text and pass the parameter
- Accept: application/json;text/xml
- Content-type: audio/wav; codecs=audio/pcm; samplerate=16000
- Expect: 100-continue
- Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key: xxxx-xxxxxx-xxxxxx-xxxx
- Transfer-Encoding: chunked
- For Body Choose the read blob content
- This should pass the audio binary content to cognitive service api
- Now lets parseJSON the api output
- Now select the body from http output
- Provide the schema as

"Duration": {
"type": "integer"
},
"NBest": {
"items": {
"properties": {
"Confidence": {
"type": "number"

}
- Now add action for upload data to blob
- Give a container output
- Give a output name
- Go to Overview and then click Run Trigger and click -> Run
- Upload the wav file
- Wait for it to process
- Give some time for the Speech API to process
- Now go to blob storage

- Above is the sample output
- Confidence score and Display is available
- Now process Text analytics and pull Key phrases, PII, Sentiment and Entities
- Create 3 variable one for id, text and language
- Create id
- Create language
- Create Text
- Next is compose
{
"documents": [
{
"id": @{variables('id')},
"language": @{variables('language')},
"text": @{variables('text')}
}
]
}
- text analytics API
https://cogsvcname.cognitiveservices.azure.com/text/analytics/v3.1/keyPhrases
- Provide Header - Ocp-Apim-Subscription-Key
- Headers - Content-Type
- Body - Content from compose output
- Parse JSON output
- Schema
