Why is Google Speech API getting timeout - php

Question

I am developing a website that will have an audio to text page, i am trying to use the API from Google but it seems to load indefinitly and giving me a timeout, on the Google console it show me that request has been made so i guess it come from my rendering (I am developing on Symfony)
Here's my function
public function transcribeAction($audioFile = 'C:\Users\Poste3\Downloads\rec.flac', $languageCode = 'fr-FR', $options = ['sampleRateHertz' => 16000, 'speechContexts' => ['phrases' => ['The Google Cloud Platform', 'Speech API']]])
{
// Create the speech client
$speech = new SpeechClient([
'keyFilePath' => 'C:\Users\Poste3\Downloads\Speech-74da45e82b8e.json',
'languageCode' => $languageCode,
]);
// Make the API call
$results = $speech->recognize(
fopen($audioFile, 'r'),
$options
);
// Print the results
foreach ($results as $result) {
$alternative = $result->alternatives()[0];
printf('Transcript: %s' . PHP_EOL, $alternative['transcript']);
printf('Confidence: %s' . PHP_EOL, $alternative['confidence']);
}
return $this->render('OCPlatformBundle:Advert:speech.html.twig');
}
And here's the call to the function
{{ render(controller('OCPlatformBundle:Advert:transcribe')) }}

Answer 1

First of all you should dump the response you are getting from Speech API.
Possible problems here:
Key is not correctly configured, and has no permissions to make this operation
Your file is more than 1 minute long, in this case google speech requires you to first upload .flac file to Google Cloud and use longrunningrecognize
