CreateVocabulary
Creates a new custom vocabulary.
When creating a new custom vocabulary, you can either upload a text file that contains
your new entries, phrases, and terms into an Amazon S3 bucket and include the
URI in your request. Or you can include a list of terms directly in your request using
the Phrases
flag.
Each language has a character set that contains all allowed characters for that specific language. If you use unsupported characters, your custom vocabulary request fails. Refer to Character Sets for Custom Vocabularies to get the character set for your language.
For more information, see Custom vocabularies.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.
- DataAccessRoleArn
-
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an IAM role that has permissions to access the Amazon S3 bucket that contains your input files (in this case, your custom vocabulary). If the role that you specify doesn’t have the appropriate permissions to access the specified Amazon S3 location, your request fails.
IAM role ARNs have the format
arn:partition:iam::account:role/role-name-with-path
. For example:arn:aws:iam::111122223333:role/Admin
.For more information, see IAM ARNs.

Required: No
- LanguageCode
-
The language code that represents the language of the entries in your custom vocabulary. Each custom vocabulary must contain terms in only one language.

en-US
), you can only apply this custom vocabulary to files that contain English audio.For a list of supported languages and their associated language codes, refer to the Supported languages table.
