Query transcribe request status and retrieve results

Check on the status of a request which has been successfully submitted, using the request_id received on submission of that request.

If results are available, the body of the response will contain a document in the format requested (default is XML).
Otherwise, HTTP status code 204 is returned with an empty response. Use the x-status header in the response to determine the request status.

Output format

Using the format query parameter, the user can select one of the supported output formats. The format may have optional parameters which are used to construct the output.

See the Reformat ASR results, “Output format description” section for a detailed description of the available formats.

If the request status is “Ready” or “Completed”, the body of the response will contain the ASR results, in the format requested.
