Quickstart
Before you begin
- Select or create a Cloud Platform project.
- Enable the Cloud Speech API.
- Set up authentication with a service account so you can access the API from your local workstation.
Installing the client library
npm install @google-cloud/speechUsing the client library
// Imports the Google Cloud client library
const speech = require('@google-cloud/speech');
// Creates a client
const client = new speech.SpeechClient();
async function quickstart() {
// The path to the remote LINEAR16 file
const gcsUri = 'gs://cloud-samples-data/speech/brooklyn_bridge.raw';
// The audio file's encoding, sample rate in hertz, and BCP-47 language code
const audio = {
uri: gcsUri,
};
const config = {
encoding: 'LINEAR16',
sampleRateHertz: 16000,
languageCode: 'en-US',
};
const request = {
audio: audio,
config: config,
};
// Detects speech in the audio file
const [response] = await client.recognize(request);
const transcription = response.results
.map(result => result.alternatives[0].transcript)
.join('\n');
console.log(`Transcription: ${transcription}`);
}
quickstart();

Supported Node.js Versions
Our client libraries follow the Node.js release schedule. Libraries are compatible with all current active and maintenance versions of Node.js. If you are using an end-of-life version of Node.js, we recommend that you update as soon as possible to an actively supported LTS version.
Google's client libraries support legacy versions of Node.js runtimes on a best-efforts basis with the following warnings:
- Legacy versions are not tested in continuous integration.
- Some security patches and features cannot be backported.
- Dependencies cannot be kept up-to-date.
Client libraries targeting some end-of-life versions of Node.js are available, and
can be installed through npm dist-tags.
The dist-tags follow the naming convention legacy-(version).
For example, npm install @google-cloud/speech@legacy-8 installs client libraries
for versions compatible with Node.js 8.
Versioning
This library follows Semantic Versioning.
This library is considered to be stable. The code surface will not change in backwards-incompatible ways unless absolutely necessary (e.g. because of critical security issues) or with an extensive deprecation period. Issues and requests against stable libraries are addressed with the highest priority.
