# Speech and Translation

#### Bhasini Translation API

JB Manager depends on Bhasini translation and speech processing functionalites for processing messages (both text and audio) in Indic languages. To access Bhasini API, register at [Bhashini](https://bhashini.gov.in/ulca/user/register). Detailed steps on prerequisite is available on [Bhasini Onboarding Page](https://bhashini.gitbook.io/bhashini-apis/pre-requisites-and-onboarding). After registration, `USER_ID`, `API_KEY` and `PIPELINE_ID` will be required. You can find `PIPELINE_ID` [here](https://bhashini.gitbook.io/bhashini-apis/pipeline-search-call).

#### Azure Speech and Translation API

JB Manager depends on Azure speech and translation API for processesing non-Indic languages as well as fallback to Bhasini API.

1. [Create a Speech resource](https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.CognitiveServicesSpeechServices) in the Azure portal.
2. Create a Translation resource in the Azure portal.
