if the language field has not been set (for example, on a newly created assistant), the system defaults to english this also applies if the assistant configuration is loaded and the language value is missing or unrecognised language availability the language list is sourced from the azure transcription engine’s catalogue of supported languages as azure adds or retires language support, the dropdown will reflect those changes the note beneath the dropdown in the ui reads “languages listed here are supported by the transcription engine accuracy may vary based on audio quality and language model performance ” frequently asked questions q does changing the language affect the live transcript? no the transcript always reflects the language spoken by the caller, as detected by the speech recognition engine the language setting only controls the language of smart reply suggestions q can i set different languages for different campaigns or assistants? yes the language setting is configured per assistant you can create separate assistants for different language requirements and deploy them to the relevant campaigns q what happens if the caller’s spoken language is different from the configured smart reply language? this is supported and expected for example, if a caller speaks hindi and the language is set to japanese, the transcript appears in hindi while smart replies are generated in japanese the two are independent q will changing the language affect calls that are already in progress? no language changes apply only to new sessions that start after you re publish the assistant active calls will continue using the previously configured language q why is my preferred language not listed in the dropdown? the dropdown shows languages supported by the azure transcription engine if a language is not listed, it is not currently supported by the transcription service contact exotel support if you need guidance on a specific language q can agents override the language setting during a call? no the language setting is an assistant level configuration individual agents cannot override it on a per call basis q the smart replies look lower quality in my selected language what should i do? smart reply accuracy can vary by language, depending on audio quality and language model performance this is noted in the ui if quality is consistently poor for a specific language, contact exotel support with example transcripts
