Your First API Call

Here's a simple example to convert text to speech:

cURL

curl -X POST https://api.speechgen.com/v1/text-to-speech \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "text": "Hello, welcome to Speechgen!",
    "voice": "en-US-Neural2-A",
    "format": "mp3"
  }'

JavaScript

const response = await fetch("https://api.speechgen.com/v1/text-to-speech", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: {
    Authorization: "Bearer YOUR_API_KEY",
    "Content-Type": "application/json",
  },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    text: "Hello, welcome to Speechgen!",
    voice: "en-US-Neural2-A",
    format: "mp3",
  }),
});

const audioBlob = await response.blob();

Python

import requests

response = requests.post(
    'https://api.speechgen.com/v1/text-to-speech',
    headers={
        'Authorization': 'Bearer YOUR_API_KEY',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json',
    },
    json={
        'text': 'Hello, welcome to Speechgen!',
        'voice': 'en-US-Neural2-A',
        'format': 'mp3',
    }
)

audio_content = response.content

Remember to replace YOUR_API_KEY with your actual API key from the dashboard.
