Description

Transcribes the audio from a customer service call and applies any additional Request Parameters you choose to include in your request. In addition to many of the standard transcription features, Call Analytics provides you with call characteristics, call summarization, speaker sentiment, and optional redaction of your text transcript and your audio file. You can also apply custom categories to flag specified conditions. To learn more about these features and insights, refer to Analyzing call center audio with Call Analytics. If you want to apply categories to your Call Analytics job, you must create them before submitting your job request. Categories cannot be retroactively applied to a job. To create a new category, use the operation. To learn more about Call Analytics categories, see Creating categories. To make a StartCallAnalyticsJob request, you must first upload your media file into an Amazon S3 bucket; you can then specify the Amazon S3 location of the file using the Media parameter. You must include the following parameters in your StartCallAnalyticsJob request:
  • region: The Amazon Web Services Region where you are making your request. For a list of Amazon Web Services Regions supported with Amazon Transcribe, refer to Amazon Transcribe endpoints and quotas.
  • CallAnalyticsJobName: A custom name you create for your transcription job that is unique within your Amazon Web Services account.
  • DataAccessRoleArn: The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an IAM role that has permissions to access the Amazon S3 bucket that contains your input files.
  • Media (MediaFileUri or RedactedMediaFileUri): The Amazon S3 location of your media file.
With Call Analytics, you can redact the audio contained in your media file by including RedactedMediaFileUri, instead of MediaFileUri, to specify the location of your input audio. If you choose to redact your audio, you can find your redacted media at the location specified in the RedactedMediaFileUri field of your response.

Parameters

-CallAnalyticsJobName <String>
A unique name, chosen by you, for your Call Analytics job.This name is case sensitive, cannot contain spaces, and must be unique within an Amazon Web Services account. If you try to create a new job with the same name as an existing job, you get a ConflictException error.

-OutputEncryptionKMSKeyId <String>
The KMS key you want to use to encrypt your Call Analytics output.If using a key located in the current Amazon Web Services account, you can specify your KMS key in one of four ways:
  1. Use the KMS key ID itself. For example, 1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab.
  2. Use an alias for the KMS key ID. For example, alias/ExampleAlias.

If using a key located in a different Amazon Web Services account than the current Amazon Web Services account, you can specify your KMS key in one of two ways:
  1. Use the ARN for the KMS key ID. For example, arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:key/1234abcd-12ab-34cd-56ef-1234567890ab.
  2. Use the ARN for the KMS key alias. For example, arn:aws:kms:region:account-ID:alias/ExampleAlias.
If you don't specify an encryption key, your output is encrypted with the default Amazon S3 key (SSE-S3).If you specify a KMS key to encrypt your output, you must also specify an output location using the OutputLocation parameter.Note that the user making the request must have permission to use the specified KMS key.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-OutputLocation <String>
The Amazon S3 location where you want your Call Analytics transcription output stored. You can use any of the following formats to specify the output location:
  1. s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET
  2. s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-output-folder/
  3. s3://DOC-EXAMPLE-BUCKET/my-output-folder/my-call-analytics-job.json
Unless you specify a file name (option 3), the name of your output file has a default value that matches the name you specified for your transcription job using the CallAnalyticsJobName parameter.You can specify a KMS key to encrypt your output using the OutputEncryptionKMSKeyId parameter. If you don't specify a KMS key, Amazon Transcribe uses the default Amazon S3 key for server-side encryption.If you don't specify OutputLocation, your transcript is placed in a service-managed Amazon S3 bucket and you are provided with a URI to access your transcript.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)

Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is 'CallAnalyticsJob'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.TranscribeService.Model.StartCallAnalyticsJobResponse).
