Batch transcription questions
Hi,
have a few questions about the Batch api if possible.
- haymansfieldCopper ContributorMy first question is to ask whether there is any support (available or planned) to allow network restrictions to be applied to the storage account where I am holding my Audio files?
- splusqMicrosoft
haymansfield you're asking if we have the ability to throttle the reads from a storage account such that they are under some limit? Also, from your question, it appears that you're looking for speech transcription is my assumption correct?
- haymansfieldCopper Contributor
splusq Not throttle, but essentially stop network access except from Cognitive services.
- splusqMicrosoftHi Andrew, We have batch APIs for speech transcriptions. Is that what you're looking for? https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cognitive-services/speech-service/batch-transcription

splusq Thanks for the response!
I've successfully used the API to transcribe files in a storage account. My questions are around what I can do from there:
1. In my POC I use an unrestricted Storage account to house my files for transcription. Can I apply networking restrictions to this storage account and still allow Cognitive Services access to the Storage account? If not, are there any plans to support this?
- haymansfieldCopper ContributorSo Cognitive Services will be able to retrieve files from a storage account which has a private link in my vnet. Do I need to put any networking in place to allow Cognitive Services access to my vnet?
- splusqMicrosoft
haymansfield you need to explicitly allow the cognitive-services/service-tag to gain access to your vnet/private-link.

splusq Thanks very much I will give this a try.
