WebSocket
The Text-to-Speech WebSockets API is designed to generate audio from partial text input while ensuring consistency throughout the generated audio. Although highly flexible, the WebSockets API isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution. It’s well-suited for scenarios where:
- The input text is being streamed or generated in chunks.
- Word-to-audio alignment information is required.
However, it may not be the best choice when:
- The entire input text is available upfront. Given that the generations are partial, some buffering is involved, which could potentially result in slightly higher latency compared to a standard HTTP request.
- You want to quickly experiment or prototype. Working with WebSockets can be harder and more complex than using a standard HTTP API, which might slow down rapid development and testing.

Your single use token. Use this if you want to initiate a session from the client. When providing this parameter, xi-api-key is no longer required for authentication.
Identifier of the model that will be used, you can query them using GET /v1/models.
Language code (ISO 639-1) used to enforce a language for the model and text normalization. If the model does not support the provided language code, it will be ignored. This parameter is not supported for multilingual_v2 models.
When enable_logging is set to false zero retention mode will be used for the request. This will mean history features are unavailable for this request, including request stitching. Zero retention mode may only be used by enterprise customers.
Output format of the generated audio. Formatted as codec_sample_rate_bitrate. So an mp3 with 22.05kHz sample rate at 32kbs is represented as mp3_22050_32. MP3 with 192kbps bitrate requires you to be subscribed to Creator tier or above. PCM with 44.1kHz sample rate requires you to be subscribed to Pro tier or above. Note that the μ-law format (sometimes written mu-law, often approximated as u-law) is commonly used for Twilio audio inputs.
This parameter controls text normalization with three modes: 'auto', 'on', and 'off'. When set to 'auto', the system will automatically decide whether to apply text normalization (e.g., spelling out numbers). With 'on', text normalization will always be applied, while with 'off', it will be skipped.
Whether to enable/disable parsing of SSML tags within the provided text. For best results, we recommend sending SSML tags as fully contained messages to the websockets endpoint, otherwise this may result in additional latency. Please note that rendered text, in normalizedAlignment, will be altered in support of SSML tags. The rendered text will use a . as a placeholder for breaks, and syllables will be reported using the CMU arpabet alphabet where SSML phoneme tags are used to specify pronunciation. IMPORTANT: When using phoneme-based pronunciation dictionaries (IPA/CMU), SSML parsing is automatically enabled if this parameter is not set. Setting this to false with phoneme dictionaries is deprecated and will be ignored in a future release, as phoneme dictionaries require SSML parsing to work correctly.
