Programmatically list supported languages for AWS Transcribe

AWS lists supported languages for Transcribe here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/transcribe/latest/dg/supported-languages.html

Short of parsing the documentation page, is there any way to get a list of these languages programmatically?

ListLanguageModels seemed promising, but it's only for custom models.

Solution

  • You can access all available languages in AWS JS SDK directly. Check the source code.
