I’m working on a project with an ESP32 using Google Cloud Speech-to-Text API. The connection to the server works, but I’m getting an error message when sending audio data for transcription.
Serial Monitor Output:
---- Opened the serial port /dev/tty.usbserial-0001 ----

Transcribe Function:
‘void CloudSpeechClient::Transcribe(customAudio* audio) { audio->EncodeToBase64();
String HttpBody1 = “{"config":{"encoding":"LINEAR16","sampleRateHertz":16000,"languageCode":"en-US"},"audio":{"content":"”;
String HttpBody3 = “"}}\r\n\r\n”;
int httpBody2Length = (audio->wavDataSize + sizeof(audio->paddedHeader)) * 4 / 3;
String ContentLength = String(HttpBody1.length() + httpBody2Length + HttpBody3.length());
String fullHttpHeader = String(“POST /v1/speech:recognize?key=”) + apiKey +
" HTTP/1.1\r\nHost: speech.googleapis.com\r\nContent-Type: application/json\r\nContent-Length: " + ContentLength + “\r\n\r\n”;
client.print(fullHttpHeader);
client.print(HttpBody1);
PrintHttpBody2(audio); // This sends encoded audio data
client.print(HttpBody3);
String response = “”;
while (client.available()) {
response += client.readString();
}
int position = response.indexOf(‘{’);
if (position >= 0) {
ans = response.substring(position);
Serial.print("JSON Data: ");
Serial.println(ans);
}
} ‘
What I’ve tried:
Verifying the API key and server connection.
Ensuring the audio data is properly base64 encoded and added to the request.
Double-checked the JSON structure for sending the audio content.
Is there something wrong with how I’m handling the audio encoding or building the HTTP request? Any guidance would be appreciated!
