For a full overview on Replacement Libraries see our guide on Using Replacement Libraries
Replacements allow you to specify any word and provide an alternative pronunciation of that word. This replacement text can either be a phonetic_respelling
which must by formatted using WellSaid's Respelling System to be accepted as a replacement. Alternatively you can provide your own suggestion to the model where you would set the phonetic_respelling
value to FALSE
.
To create a Replacement Make a POST request to this URL, including your API key in the header and the library_id
of the Library you want to add your replacement(s) to :
https://api.wellsaidlabs.com/v1/tts/post_clips
An example curl
command:
curl --request POST \
